Drying is a key phase in wood processing: it reduces internal moisture, making the material more stable, lighter and easier to work with. However, it is a highly energy-intensive process.

Solutions with Recuperator heat exchangers and Enginia air handling units enable precise control of temperature and humidity, improving product quality and reducing energy impact.

Main advantages:
Recuperator plate heat exchangers: resistant up to 850°C, ideal for corrosive environments thanks to GOLD coating; recover up to 70% of heat from exhaust air.

Significant energy savings, with an overall reduction in cabin consumption of up to 30%.

Enginia thermal break dampers: class 4 air-tightness for optimal insulation and efficient airflow management, reduce heat losses and improve system efficiency.

CAREL humidifiers: adiabatic for wood pore opening, steam for treatments above 90°C and accelerated drying.

CAREL controls: programmable, with integrated sensors and graphic interfaces for full cycle management.

Our technologies adapt to:
Chamber dryers for solid wood
Belt dryers for sawdust, chips and biomass
Heat pump systems for sustainable and continuous drying

With Recuperator, Enginia and CAREL solutions, wood drying becomes more efficient, more precise and more sustainable.
