Tarmeko LPD new production building humidification system – old and new together
We installed a five-zone Unifog high-pressure humidification system in Tarmeko LPD's new production building, combining new solutions with equipment partially transferred from the old production facility. Both pipe-type and UFO-type humidification solutions are in use, and the entire system is controlled by a single touchscreen control centre with data logging. In addition, we equipped the press room with the necessary ventilation.


Project challenge
An efficient humidification system needed to be established in the new production building, covering various zones and production needs. In addition, the client wished to reuse part of their existing equipment that had until then been in operation in the old production facility – thus both new and old technology had to be combined into a single solution.
How we built the solution
We installed a five-zone Unifog high-pressure humidification system in the new production building, combining several different humidification technology combinations. We partly used the client's existing system that had until then been in operation in the old production facility, and implemented two system solutions:
- Unifog high-pressure humidification system, five-zone
- pipe-type humidification system, where the nozzles are pressed directly onto the main line using special nozzle holders
- UFO-type humidification solution, transferred over from the old production facility
- press room ventilation
Automation and remote management
The system is controlled via a single touchscreen control centre, which allows the necessary parameters to be adjusted and logged information to be viewed. If needed, all logged information can be transferred to a computer using a USB stick.
Result
Tarmeko's new production building received a complete solution that combines new and existing equipment into a single functioning system. The five-zone humidification solution together with central touchscreen control ensures flexible humidity regulation across different production areas.

Custom humidification system solution for outdoor storage
We expanded and adapted the previously installed air humidification system at the Barrus AS glulam plant for a new three-zone warehouse building. In each zone separated by curtains or doors, a stable and high humidity level of 80% RH is ensured, keeping wet sawn timber in optimal conditions before it is directed to the kiln. The piping is insulated and equipped with an automatic heating cable that activates automatically near the freezing point.
UNIFOG humidification system for glulam production
We installed a 1-zone UNIFOG humidification system in the production facilities of Timbeco Woodmill to ensure a consistent and optimal humidity level in the manufacturing of glulam. In addition, we installed a water softening system that keeps maintenance costs almost non-existent and ensures the long-term efficiency of the system. The system is expandable to the rest of the production facilities.
UNIFOG pipe humidification modernization in a woodworking plant – 16 zones
For a North Estonian timber industry company, we modernized the entire factory's humidification into a UNIFOG pipe-type humidification system. The system consisted of 16 humidification zones and was one of the largest solutions we have supplied. The control panel was installed in the technicians' room, and the system is practically maintenance-free. The installation took a total of three weeks.
