Not long ago, Stora Enso broke through the 1 million m³ mark with its two Austrian cross-laminated timber plants in Ybbs an der Donau and Bad St. Leonhard.

Since the two CLT locations in Ybbs and Bad St. Leonhard were taken into operation in 2012 and 2008 respectively, the Finnish group has produced 1 million m³ of cross-laminated timber in Austria. Furthermore, the company recently opened another CLT factory in Gruvön, SE, with an annual output of 100,000 m³.
