Engineered timber has already established its role in modern construction. Its next test is proving clear commercial value at scale.

In an interview with Panels & Furniture Asia, VMG Lignum CEO Ramunas Grudis explains why the sector must move beyond supplying individual products towards integrated building systems that combine engineered wood, prefabrication, engineering expertise and production technology.

As he notes, the next phase of timber construction will be driven by verified performance, repeatable systems and measurable value – from greater efficiency and faster installation to improved scalability and reliability.

Thank you to Panels & Furniture Asia and Cecilia Yeo for the interview and for highlighting the opportunities shaping the future of engineered timber.

From forest to building: presenting our value chain to Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)

Earlier this October, representatives of the FSC visited Akmenė to see how responsibly sourced timber is tracked, processed and transformed into engineered wood products and building components across our industrial ecosystem.

During the two-day visit, the FSC team filmed interviews with our colleagues and visited the VMG Lignum Construction, VMG Wood Solutions and Rietuva production facilities. The discussions covered LVL, I-joists and components for panel-based renovation and new construction.

Particular attention was given to circularity in practice: wood residues generated in one production process become raw materials for another, while bark is used to generate heat for manufacturing. The delegation was also introduced to the solar and wind energy solutions integrated across the wider industrial ecosystem.

Thank you to the FSC team for the visit and for the opportunity to exchange insights on responsible sourcing, resource efficiency and the future of the timber value chain.

🏆 Innovation of the Year 2026 – a proud achievement for VMG Konstantynow!

We are delighted to share that VMG Konstantynow has received the Innovation of the Year award at Warsaw Home & Contract 2026, recognizing our high-performance LVL furniture components and their innovative application in furniture manufacturing.

Our award-winning solution demonstrates how engineered wood can offer a high-performance alternative to conventional solid wood and, in selected applications, even steel.

By combining strength, dimensional stability and precision processing, our LVL components help furniture manufacturers achieve more consistent quality, optimize material use and improve production efficiency.

And the benefits are measurable:
🔹 In sofa frame applications, LVL enables component cross-sections to be reduced by up to 30% compared to conventional solid wood, while maintaining the required structural performance.
🔹 In bed frame applications, our LVL side rails have successfully replaced galvanized steel components, offering a renewable, wood-based structural solution.

This recognition is an important milestone for VMG Konstantynow and reinforces our commitment to developing innovative, efficient and sustainable solutions for the furniture industry.

👏 A big thank you to our team for making this achievement possible!

Higher energy performance means lower energy demand – and, under comparable conditions, lower heating costs.

During the 2025–2026 heating season, average heating costs in old, uninsulated apartment buildings in Lithuania reached approximately €2.18/m², compared with €0.91/m² in energy-efficient buildings. For a 60 m² apartment, this represented an average monthly difference of around €76.

“Energy prices fluctuate, while a building’s energy demand can be reduced through long-term technical solutions,” says Justinas Bortkevičius, Head of VMG Lignum Systems.

Panel-based renovation addresses the key factor behind these differences: how much heat a building needs. By improving the thermal performance and airtightness of the building envelope, it helps reduce energy demand, while factory prefabrication can shorten on-site work and minimise disruption for residents.

VMG Lignum is featured in the latest issue of Wood in Architecture! 🌿

In an interview with Justinas Bortkevičius, CEO of VMG Lignum Systems, we present the first pilot panel-based renovation projects currently being implemented in Lithuania and explore how prefabrication can help address some of the biggest challenges facing the renovation sector.

The article looks at how factory-manufactured façade panels can shorten on-site work, improve precision and quality, reduce construction waste, and minimise disruption for building occupants. One of the key examples is the renovation of Karmėlava Secondary School – Lithuania’s first demonstration project using this technology.

Thank you, Panels & Furniture Asia, for inviting us to share our experience and bringing greater attention to innovative timber-based renovation solutions.

🌍 Lithuania’s engineered wood potential is gaining international recognition.

We are proud to see VMG Lignum featured in Global Wood Markets Info’s overview of Lithuania as Europe’s emerging wood industry powerhouse.

The article highlights the scale of investment transforming the country’s wood sector and recognises the VMG Lignum Construction engineered wood production site in Akmenė as one of the largest integrated sites of its kind in Europe.

By bringing together particleboard, LVL and I-joist production, we are building the capacity to serve construction markets far beyond Lithuania.

International attention confirms what we see every day: Lithuania has the expertise, technology and industrial capacity to play an increasingly important role in the future of European construction.

🏢 More than 30,000 apartment buildings in Lithuania are still awaiting renovation. How can we accelerate the process?

Kaunas is taking an important step by offering its highest-rated projects compensation of up to 100% of construction costs, with additional priority given to district-scale and panel-based renovation.

Yet funding must go hand in hand with faster technologies. As Justinas Bortkevičius, Head of VMG Lignum Systems, highlights, panel-based renovation shifts more work to a controlled factory environment – improving quality, simplifying planning and reducing time on-site.

With pilot projects already underway in Vilnius and Utena, this model shows strong potential for renovation at scale.

🏗️ How can closer cooperation between the construction sector and the engineered timber industry transform the way we build?

This topic was discussed last Thursday at the extended Council meeting of the Lithuanian Construction Association (LSA), held at Akmene Free Economic Zone.

Sigitas Paulauskas, Founder and Sole Shareholder of VMG Group, presented the industrial transformation of Naujoji Akmenė – an ecosystem connecting engineered timber production, automation, circular economy principles and renewable energy.

“Engineered timber solutions should not be viewed as a replacement for traditional construction technologies, but as an additional opportunity for the market,” he emphasised.

Justinas Bortkevičius, Head of VMG Lignum Systems, presented how engineered timber systems can be applied in panel-based renovation and prefabricated construction. By shifting more processes to a controlled factory environment, these solutions ensure greater precision, consistent quality and shorter on-site installation times.

The event also included visits to the VMG Wood Solutions and VMG Lignum Construction production facilities.

VMG Lignum expertise featured in EUWID 🌍

We’re proud to see VMG Lignum featured in EUWID – one of Europe’s leading sources of industry intelligence.

The article presents Rietuva’s new €40.6 million prefabricated timber construction plant in Akmenė, designed to manufacture wall and ceiling elements for panel-based renovation and prefabricated construction projects.

VMG Lignum plays an important role across the project’s value chain: the technology behind panel-based renovation was developed by VMG Lignum Systems, while VMG Lignum Construction supplies the engineered timber products used in production. 🌲

With an annual capacity of around 360,000 m², the new facility creates a strong industrial foundation for more efficient and scalable timber construction and renovation solutions across Europe.
