LX100 Heavy-Duty Sawmill Cutting Rosewood & Teak in Surakarta, Indonesia

Doddik Sulistiono is the owner of Citra Fajar Utama - a wood processing and furniture manufacturing company in the Klaten region of Central Java, Indonesia.
“We process sonokeling [Indian rosewood] and jati teak,” Mr. Sulistiono shares, “Into various products such as decorative moulding profiles, guitar material, laminated boards. We also are producing furniture from sonokeling and jati teak. We supply to Starbucks locations throughout Indonesia for table tops.”
In addition to local demand, the company also exports their timber and furniture to China, South Korea and Taiwan.
“Our production process begins with cutting our logs on the sawmill, and then measuring out sizes for the boards.”
The company was using the traditional vertical bandsaws for all their log breakdown. They began to look for other options and tried out a Wood-Mizer sawmill. They were so impressed with the surface quality and recovery, they bought three Wood-Mizers – an LT15 and two LX100 sawmills.
“Why do I use Wood-Mizer?” Mr. Sulistiono explains. “It’s because log prices are really expensive nowadays. We need to save more timber from each log, plus we need a better quality surface. So the Wood-Mizer sawmills are really important for our production process.”
“We were able to reduce our costs - especially our production cost dropped after we implemented the Wood-Mizer sawmills. Since we get better surface quality, we don’t have to send the wood through a double planer anymore.”
