Wood Products

Beca AMEC delivers integrated engineering services to the wood products industry from planning to commissioning.

Wood Products.

International competition, increasing costs and uncertainty over environmental policy all play a part in shaping the local wood products segment. Beca AMEC can deploy new technology at a 'greenfield' site or integrate new technology into existing facilities to optimise plant performance. We can develop concepts from theory to reality.

As a specialist forest products team, Beca AMEC delivers integrated engineering services to the LVL, MDF, plywood and sawn timber industries. These range from initial scoping studies to the development and commissioning of major Greenfield sites.

The skills portfolio incorporates a full selection of process and discipline design services (civil, structural, mechanical, piping, electrical, process control, instrumentation), and we typically complement these with construction and project management expertise. International best practice advice is available from our North American partner, AMEC, including benchmarking comparisons.

Our broad skill base and access to the parent company resources means we're also able to provide via Beca planning services and specialist expertise for all aspects of Resource Management Act consenting and negotiation.

Potential forest industry investors use our services to investigate and assess opportunities locally and off shore. We have a proven track record for innovation, delivering on time - and client satisfaction. The AMEC team of experienced professionals brings specialist advice and proven experience to develop practical solutions that address the specific issues of the industry. AMEC forestry-specific services include timberlands management, dioxin, furan, and mercury studies, logyard construction and logyard run-off management, wood residuals management, and endangered species assessments. Via Beca AMEC, a diverse range of services and projects are available to our local clients.
