Abstract:

Sawmilling industry in both the wood sector and  Polish economy plays a special role. This is mainly due to the fact that it functions mainly due to natural and renewable domestic raw material base. This does not require relatively high energy requirements for wood processing. At the same time it has the opportunity to recover and dispose of wood waste. These elements largely represent the ecological nature of wood products, which is important in terms of achieving sustainable and sustainable development. Therefore, the need to invest in this industry is great. The article describes the reconstruction and expansion of a large sawmill located in the south-western part of Poland. An attempt was also made to show the effectiveness of the changes.
