Smart and sustainable drying
The inventive BES Bollmann drying solutions
At BES Bollmann, inventiveness and precision are central to our drying solutions. Our expertise lies in controlled artificial drying, an area in which we have excelled for years. With our high-quality drying chambers, we fully control the drying process, from temperature and relative humidity to air circulation and adaptation to specific products. This precise process results not only in short drying times and low moisture levels, but also in enhanced product quality and optimal yield.
Conventional drying
A proven and efficient method
Conventional drying is a widely chosen drying solution for drying wood. The principle of conventional drying is that the wood releases moisture when air is blown over it. By heating this air, more moisture is absorbed.
Progressive drying
The Ideal Path According to BES Bollmann
The strength of progressive drying lies in the streamlined process. Products are fed from production at one side of the drying chamber. The drying process then takes over completely, optionally with additional treatments such as ISPM 15.
Steam drying
A specialized technique for efficient drying
Steam drying is a unique drying technique in which the air present in the drying chamber is completely displaced by steam during heating. This creates a controlled environment, also known as a steam drying chamber.
Heat treatment (ISPM)
The Right Drying Process for Every Wood Species
When drying and treating pallets and packaging, we ensure compliance with all relevant laws and regulations. Our expertise in ISPM 15 requirements ensures strong, reliable solutions.
Energy-efficient drying
Efficiency: The Key to Sustainability
Saving energy during the drying process is a key principle in the design and implementation of drying kilns at BES Bollmann. Our focus is on smart technologies that maximize both thermal and electrical efficiency.
Thermal modification
improve the properties of wood
During the process of thermal modification, wood is exposed to high temperatures in a controlled, oxygen-poor environment. This treatment changes the molecular structure of the wood, making it more resistant to moisture, fungi, and insects.
Heat and drying needs
A proven and efficient method
Creating the perfect balance between heat and drying requirements is essential for an effective and sustainable drying process. At BES Bollmann, in collaboration with Kara Future Energy Systems, we understand that every customer has unique needs. That’s why we offer customized solutions that fully align with each customer’s specific requirements and production processes.
