DDL takes a significant step towards sustainability with EVOfuge steam recovery system
Dřevozpracující Družstvo Lukavec (DDL), a leading Czech manufacturer of wood-based products, has committed to reducing its carbon footprint by implementing advanced energy-saving technology in its MDF production line.
Located in Lukavec, Czech Republic, DDL will install the EVOfuge steam recovery system from Sunds Fibertech, marking a major step toward lowering its environmental impact. By integrating the EVOfuge system into the blowline of its MDF plant, DDL expects to reduce the consumption of fresh steam in fiber production by approximately 20%. This innovative system captures and recycles steam that would otherwise be wasted, significantly improving the energy efficiency of the process. The result is not only a reduction in CO₂ emissions, but also considerable savings in energy costs over time.
DDL is known for its vertically integrated operations, producing a wide variety of wood-based materials, including sawn timber, planed timber, wooden pellets, particle board, MDF, laminated panels, and furniture components. Its decision to invest in cutting-edge energy recovery technology reflects a strong commitment to environmental responsibility and operational excellence.
Sunds Fibertech, a renowned provider of process technologies for the panelboard industry, offers tailor-made machinery and upgrade solutions. The EVOfuge system is a prime example of how innovation can align production efficiency with sustainability goals. Through this collaboration, both companies underline the importance of smart technology in driving the wood industry toward a greener future.
