Why you should choose VTI
Sustainability
We work actively to reduce our carbon footprint and other negative environmental impacts. At the same time, we strive to create positive social outcomes for our employees and business partners.
Partnerships
VTI offers solutions to new and existing customers through close collaboration and partnerships. We focus on building long-term relationships between our customers and suppliers to ensure mutual success.
Certified wood
VTI only uses certified wood. This means that the factory can document which raw wood has been used in the production of different orders.
Quality panels
We only use slow-growing pine from Nordic forests. VTI works with three different board qualities that can be customised to your specific needs.
We guarantee a high share of core wood
Naturally, there are variations in the properties of different types of wood, but even two pieces of wood of the same species can have very different properties.
Wood can be characterised as follows:
- Heartwood/splinter
- Density: annual rings and resin content
- Growing area
- Cutting
- Storage, drying and transportation
Slow-grown wood is the strongest wood and best suited for window timber. The heartwood is the innermost part of the trunk and its primary function is to give the tree strength. The outer layer of heartwood is sapwood, which transports water from the roots to the crown of the tree. The core is 'dead' meaning water transportation no longer takes place there. The cells are filled with waste products that protect against rot and fungus. This is what makes heartwood particularly suitable for the production of windows.
Benefits of using heartwood:
- No need to purchase impregnation fluid
- No labour hours required for impregnation
- Shorter lead time and optimised production flow
- A more environmentally friendly solution
- Option of a warranty on surface treatment
Core wood guarantee
At VTI, we guarantee the core share we agree with you. The selection of each individual log begins with high-tech X-ray sorting at our sawmills in the Nordics. When we receive raw materials at VTI, we perform quality control on the wood to ensure the right quality of the finished product. Before finger-jointing and lamination, the profiles are scanned for visible defects and knots.
Certification
Quality and reliability are important to us. One of the ways we ensure this is with valid product certificates.
We have the DVV product certificate issued by Byggeriets Kvalitetskontrol, which ensures you a quality and guarantee scheme for facade windows and exterior doors.
In addition, VTI is regularly inspected by WSP Danmark/the Soil Association's Woodmark scheme.
