Finsa at the Forefront of Disruptive Innovation in the Technical Wood Industry

The history of wood has had a series of milestones, which forever changed the use of this material and the possibilities of its application. In the 1940s, the first particleboards were developed. In the 1960s, the industry, through innovation, launched medium-density fibre board (MDF). Different products, each with its own properties and benefits. However, over the course of 40 years there had been no other major innovations in the industry.

Finsa was a pioneer in Europe in the development of technical wood solutions. Following this philosophy, in the year 2000, we asked ourselves a question: why not design a new product that combines the strengths of these two materials? Thus, SuperPan was born. Since 2016, at our factory in Nelas (Portugal), relying on our state-of-the-art production line, we have introduced innovative processes that allow us to manufacture the new SuperPan, an all-new particleboard with significant improvements. A unique material, capable of making a difference in a wide variety of applications and projects.

In a mature industry, where true innovations are difficult and rare, this investment has become for us a firm commitment to technology as a way to contribute to the development of the wood industry.

Markets are becoming increasingly competitive. Therefore, it is increasingly hard to stand out and differentiate ourselves from our competition Through its outstanding properties, SuperPan opens up a myriad of possibilities to offer new approaches and look for new positions. superPan is a time-proven product that has unarguably demonstrated its full potential. Factors such as productivity, efficiency, reliability, quality but also cost and process efficiency are particularly ensured by the use of superPan.

It is our belief that, both for industries and craftsmen alike, SuperPan can make a difference, both in terms of production processes and of the value offered to end-customers. Experience shows us that users can benefit greatly from it and can derive great competitive advantages to boost their business. We invite you to get to know how SuperPan can help you stand out and how you can add value to all elements of the furniture and interior design value chain.
