Boguchansky LPK
Boguchansky LPK's main asset is the state of the art sawmilling production facility located in the Boguchan region of Krasnoyarsk, on the Southern bank of the Angara River.
The facility was originally constructed by a Russian-Dutch joint venture in 1992, and then had a design capacity of some 50,000 m3 of kiln dried sawnwood per annum. However, the facility was mothballed and made inoperative in the year 2000 and RusForest acquired the company in March 2007.
The new management of Boguchansky LPK stripped out the old sawmilling line, installed new HewSaw equipment, rebuilt all log processing equipment, rebuilt the kilns and overhauled all of the power and heat utilities. The new sawmill was brought into operation in October 2008, with a base sawnwood capacity of 100,000 m3 annually.
The sawmill at Boguchansky LPK is well situated in order to process logs that are passing the plant on its way to the railway terminal in Karbula. The federal government is currently building a bridge over the nearby Angara River, which is estimated to be completed in 2011 or 2012. The bridge will enable a smoother supply of sawlogs across the river throughout the year. Furthermore, both the Federal and Regional governments have approved the extension of the railway line to the town of Bogouchan. The completion of this 40 kilometre line will enhance Boguchansky LPK's infrastructure access.
