Egger Acquires Novem Industries

Jan 23, 2023 | Board Manufacturers | 0 comments

USA – Egger, a leading global manufacturer of wood-based panels, has acquired the business and assets of Novem Industries Inc., a wood recycling facility located in Charlotte, North Carolina.

The acquisition, made by Egger’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Timberpak, LLC, is expected to enhance the mission of Egger Wood Products LLC to produce more from wood and to be sustainable for future generations. Timberpak completed the acquisition on January 3, 2023.

“This acquisition will not only serve an important role in bolstering our sustainability initiatives here in North America but will also better position us in key markets as we continue to expand and grow,” said Markus Frevert, plant manager for production at Egger Wood Products. “Timberpak will process post-consumer recycled materials to be used in the production of particleboard and thermally fused laminate products at our Lexington, North Carolina manufacturing plant. This diverts resources that would have otherwise gone to landfills.”

The Charlotte location, which is now Timberpak’s 14th worldwide facility, will continue to serve Novem’s existing customer base and retain the company’s six employees. The newly established North American Timberpak plant will be an addition to Egger’s existing waste wood collection operations in the United Kingdom, Romania, France, Germany, and Poland.
