Where is LUMIN produced?
Located outside the small town of Tacuarembó in the north central region of Uruguay, the Uruply S.A. plywood mill operates in a diverse landscape of forest, agriculture, and grazing lands. The mill also includes a biomass energy plant and seedling nursery, and has twice been recognized as “Projects of National Interest” in Uruguay.
Sustainability
LUMIN processes 500,000 tons of wood a year and uses virtually 100% of each log. The logs are processed into veneers to make plywood panels and wood residuals are then converted into fuel for the conditioning and drying processes. This is all completed on a sustainable basis that includes planting millions of seedlings a year - always planting more than are harvested.
This approach allows us to meet a worldwide demand for plywood using highly productive forestland, while retaining more carbon than previous land uses. LUMIN is a product based on more than 100 years of forestry expertise.
