OrganoWood enters distribution agreement with Pircher in Italy

OrganoClick’s subsidiary OrganoWood has entered into a sales and distribution agreement with the Italian wood distributor Pircher Oberland Spa (”Pircher”). The agreement gives Pircher a non-exclusive right to sell and distribute OrganoWood®-wood in Italy.

Pircher is a leading Italian distributor of wood and wood based products. The company is located in the South Tyrol in Northern Italy and has sales and distribution to leading building suppliers and DIY-stores throughout Italy.

  • “Pircher is looking forward in starting sales and distribution of OrganoWood®-wood in the Italian market. We believe OrganoWood® can be an attractive alternative for many consumers and professional building companies“, says Matthias Mair, CEO, Pircher.

Since 2012, OrganoWood®-wood has been manufactured and sold in Sweden. OrganoWood®-wood is today sold as:

  • OrganoWood® timber decking
  • OrganoWood® construction wood
  • OrganoWood® poles
  • OrganoWood® cladding

OrganoWood® is based on a silicon mineral impregnation technology which enhances the durability and fire retardancy of the wood without the use of biocides and toxic heavy metals. In the Nordics, the wood is sold to both consumers and professional construction companies through a large network of building suppliers and DIY stores.

OrganoWood has currently distribution agreements for several European countries, now also including Italy.

  • “We look forward in starting our expansion into the Italian market through the collaboration with such a well renowned distributor as Pircher. This is another step in OrganoWoods international expansion to continental Europe”, says Jens Hamlin, CEO, OrganoWood AB.
