VMG Lignum Construction, part of VMG Group, produces sustainable engineered wood products including LVL (laminated veneer lumber), I-JOIST beams, and structural particleboard for construction projects across Europe, the USA, and Australia.
Operating from a 29,000 m² facility in Naujoji Akmenė, Lithuania, the company employs over 200 people and focuses on innovative, climate-friendly building solutions.
With approximately 20 containers of large engineered wood products shipped each month, VMG looked for a safer and more efficient way to optimize its loading process.
Loading challenges
VMG's primary challenge was the scale of its wood products – most exceeding 12 meters in length. Handling pieces this size made efficient truck and container loading extremely difficult.
Other key challenges included:
- Slow cargo loading times
- High operational and labor costs
- Product damage risk
- Workplace injury risk
- Poor container space utilization
VMG needed an automated loading solution – faster, safer, and built for scale.
Solution
Container Loading System
The Container Loading System delivered immediate results for VMG:
- Cut container loading time to as little as five minutes
- Reduced manual labor requirements
- Improved loading safety
- Increased throughput for large-volume product flows
Cargo can now be staged on the loading platform before truck arrival, and even the longest products load smoothly in a single continuous operation.
