In the operational process, the wood is used at maximum capacity. Optimally sized pieces that come from waste are used in production through the process of finger joining and pressing gluing for lamellar type elements.

The small pieces that come from waste and the generated sawdust are used for heat production, used in drying the wood material but also for heating the production facilities. The company uses a Herz Firematic thermal power plant that has high efficiency with an efficiency between 90% and 93% with very low consumption of electricity during operation (max. 1.9 kW), resulting in a degree of recovery of wood waste of 100%. (being included in renewable energy resources).

The ash resulting from the combustion is used as fertilizer in the two greenhouses owned by the company. Organic production from these greenhouses is used locally in the food industry.

What results as the waste of other construction materials used in the manufacturing process are collected by specialized recycling companies.

The process closes with the replanting in proportion to 30% of the wood processed by the company each year. ERGIO participates annually in replanting activities together with NGOs but also carries out internal actions.
