Due to the high demand during the corona lockdown and the persistent drought in recent years, which has led to an increased bark beetle infestation, bottlenecks in the bark sector are currently repeatedly occurring. In order to prevent shortages, i.e. to remain able to supply our customers, we recently imported almost 8,500 srm raw bark of conifers by ship from from the Baltic States. The material was transported by truck from the port in Lübeck to our site in Mölln, our production facility for bark mulch and bark products.
We use our international contacts and our network to cushion market fluctuations and secure supplies so that we can keep our promises to our customers. After all, we want to establish long-term business relationships and always be a reliable partner.
Last week, another shipment from Sweden with 10,000 srm raw bark was thus discharged in the port of Bremen. The arrival of a third ship is planned for the end of July. Replenishment is ensured and we can continue to reliably supply our customers and business partners with material.
