Ventilation solutions for the wood industry
Efficient extraction and filtration for the wood industry
Create a safe, compliant, and energy-efficient working environment with Technor's tailored woodworking solutions.
We effectively remove dust and chips at the source, minimizing fire hazards and protecting your employees. Whether you are a small carpentry shop or a large sawmill, we have the experience to ensure a reliable solution that complies with all regulations.
Safety and ATEX – Prevent Fire and Explosions
Wood dust is not just harmful to health when inhaled; it is also highly flammable. In certain concentrations, fine wood dust can be explosive. Therefore, correct handling of ATEX (explosive atmospheres) is a critical part of any chip extraction system.
- Compliance with regulations: We ensure your system meets all applicable ATEX directives and safety standards.
- Prevention: Our solutions include spark detection, rotary valves, and approved filters that minimize the risk of accidents.
- Operational reliability: With a correctly dimensioned system, you protect both your employees and your production equipment against costly downtime caused by fire or dust accumulation.
Energy Optimization – Reduce Operating Costs
Extraction in the woodworking industry requires large air volumes, which traditionally meant high energy consumption. At Technor, we focus on
energy optimization so you don't use more power than absolutely necessary.
- Demand-controlled extraction: Using frequency converters (VFDs) and intelligent controls, we automatically regulate suction power to match the actual needs of the machines.
- High-efficiency fans: We use high-performance fans with efficiency ratings that ensure maximum air volume for every kilowatt used.
- Heat recovery: Filtered process air can often be recirculated or passed through heat exchangers, allowing you to recover heat and save on heating costs in the production hall.
How we help the industry
We don't just deliver off-the-shelf products; we solve concrete challenges. Here are three examples of how we have optimized production for Danish companies in the woodworking industry:
Vahle A/S
Door manufacturer Vahle A/S had an outdated system where chip extraction, lacquer extraction, and hand tools ran on the same line. It was energy-heavy and inefficient.
Bjerrum Nielsen A/S
When the exclusive wood product manufacturer expanded its machinery, the existing system became too small. The challenge, however, was a lack of space for a new, large filter.
Tradium Randers
During the construction of a new carpentry department, the technical college Tradium focused on creating the best possible study environment with high safety standards.
Resource utilization – From waste to value
Wood chips and sawdust are not just waste – they are a valuable resource. An efficient filter solution from Technor ensures that the byproduct is collected cleanly and effectively so it can enter a circular economy.
- Recycling: The collected material can be transported directly to silos or containers for resale as bedding or board material.
- Biofuel: Many companies convert their wood waste into briquettes or use it directly in their own heating plants to heat the factory.

We are not just a product supplier; we are your technical sparring partner from start to finish.
- Tailored solutions: We design the system specifically for your machinery and building conditions.
- Full-service provider: We handle everything from planning and dimensioning to installation, commissioning, and subsequent service.
- Danish quality and service: We know the Danish industry and respond quickly if you need service or spare parts
