I. van Roje & Sohn Sägewerk und Holzhandlung GmbH & Co. KG - One of the leading softwood exporting sawmills in Europe

Ignatz van Roje founded the company in 1929 as a supplier of pit-props to the mining industry and became one of the leading softwood exporting sawmills in Europe. In 1996, the new production location at Oberhonnefeld was created. This step was taken not only on the grounds of expansion, but to provide an opportunity for optimum links to the infrastructure. The year 2007 saw the inauguration of a new pellet factory, and then directly one year after, the large biomass heating plant.

Sawmill van Roje

Initial activities in `the old days´ by the company ranged between pit-prop production and trading in timber, until a new and modern sawmill was installed in the year 1966.

The new production location at Oberhonnefeld was created in 1996. This step was taken not only on the grounds of expansion, it also provided for an opportunity for optimum links to the infrastructure.

The future: energy from biomass

The year 2007 saw the inauguration of a new pellet factory, and then directly one year after, the large biomass heating plant. This comprehensive investment is proof firstly of the dynamic way forward in the company, and secondly the important and forward-looking entry into the production and thermal recycling of regenerative energy supplies.

Van Roje's offerings range from cut-to-order products for the construction of low-energy houses, timber framework and timber frame houses, and construction projects to products for internal partitioning and raw material for pallets, boxes and heavy transport packaging.

Today, van Roje is setting its course on further expansion: constant investment in technology and products to provide the way for innovation and a healthy and continuous growth in the company, as well as for an enduring creation of value for their customers.
