About us - Lemahieu Group

About
Lemahieu Group

CREATED BY NATURE
Proudly, we can say that since 1911, we have been a reliable partner for the timber trade and the wood processing industry. Our rich history and experience enable us to offer an extensive range of sheet materials and rough timber from stock.

 

REDEFINED BY LEMAHIEU GROUP
At the beating heart of our enterprise lies a modern machinery park, powered by green electricity from our solar panels and fueled with rainwater.

Our group consists of different divisions which, thanks to their complementarity and the specialised wood and panel knowledge of our employees, form the basis for a thriving future of wood and panels as a sustainable (construction) material.

Knowledge of wood and craftsmanship are the foundation of LEMAHIEU products. Innovation, quality, and customisation are of the utmost importance in our machinery and ensure continuous innovation in our assortment.

With Lemahieu Fire Protection®, we can give timber products a fire-retardant treatment with Burnblock® in our autoclave under pressure.

Besides standard panels, LEMPAN also offers special products, such as Okoume plywood or MDF TRICOYA EXTREME from MEDITE.

LDCwood® ThermoWood® is the 50/50 joint venture between Lemahieu Group and Decolvenaere Houtimport. LDCwood has been the Belgian market leader in the production of ThermoWood® since 2016.
