Mayr-Melnhof Holz Paskov

Mayr-Melnhof Holz Paskov is the largest sawmill in the Czech Republic and is located in the northeast of the country, in Staříč. The sawmill, which started operations in 2004, processes spruce logs from the surrounding, densely wooded regions, whose forests are managed in accordance with the strict Czech forestry laws. 

Adjacent to the sawmill is the Biocel Paskov pulp mill, a company of the Lenzing Group, which converts into pulp the wood chips produced in the sawmill and transported to their plant by conveyor. Our Paskov sawmill’s own 32mw biomass power plant supplies the sawmill, the drying chambers, and the pellet plant, which was commissioned in 2006, with the thermal energy needed for drying the sawn timber and pellets produced. Mayr-Melnhof Holz Paskov is PEFC certified.
