NTL Fire Protection, a leading player in fire protection solutions for the wood industry, is expanding its operations in the Nordics with a production facility in Åmål. The new factory covers more than 5,000 m2 of warm production space and represents a significant increase in production capacity for NTL Group, which already includes Varmawood, Finland's first and only fire impregnation treatment plant.

"In 2023, we successfully launched our first production facility in Lathi, Finland. Today we are pleased to expand our operations to Sweden, a market with great interest in sustainable building materials and a rapidly growing need for high-quality, industrial fire protection solutions", says Vincent Parasnis, CEO of NTL Fire Protection. Our new facility in Åmål is not only an expansion of our physical operations, but also proof of our commitment to promoting safe wooden construction throughout the Nordics."

In connection with the launch, NTL will also further expand its service offering and offer complete advisory services regarding fire testing and documentation.

"Fire safety in wooden buildings is an important but complex area that is increasingly in focus - we have to work together with other actors in the industry to move forward in development. Our goal is to provide architects, builders and property developers with the knowledge and tools they need to increase the use of wood as a safe, sustainable choice for modern construction. It shouldn't be difficult to choose a sustainable material, says Martin Lindquist, Chief Commercial Officer at NTL.

The facility in Åmål is expected to start initial production by mid-2024 and then gradually scale up capacity during the second half of 2024 and the beginning of 2025.
