Embedding a time capsule in the foundations of Latvijas Finieris’ new resin factory

On January 15, in the presence of government representatives and international partners, a time capsule with messages for future generations was embedded in the foundations of the new factory building, marking the start of construction.

To develop the production of new synthetic resins based on lignin, a natural wood component, thereby reducing the share of fossil raw materials in phenol-formaldehyde resins, which are currently widely used in the production of furniture, flooring, insulation materials, sandpaper, and many other everyday products, the “Latvijas Finieris” group has begun the construction of a new factory in Bolderāja, Riga.
