Michael Weinig (UK) Ltd partners with Essetre to expand CNC woodworking solutions in the UK

Essetre is about to begin a new chapter as it joins forces with the globally respected Weinig Group – one of the world’s largest manufacturers of machines and systems for processing solid wood and engineered timber products.

This strategic collaboration will see Michael Weinig (UK) Ltd represent Essetre in the UK, providing comprehensive sales and after-sales support for its advanced CNC woodworking machines. Both companies share a commitment to cutting-edge technology, and this partnership allows Essetre to benefit from Weinig UK’s established sales and service network while strengthening the Weinig Group’s market position.

Giovanni Sella, founder of Essetre, commented: “We wouldn’t have made such a collaboration with any other partner. Weinig and Essetre represent the market’s top technologies. By combining our strengths, we have huge ambitions. We trust this will be a strong and lasting partnership.”

For over 40 years, Essetre has been a leader in CNC woodworking innovation, providing solutions for processing complex and large timber sections. From traditional roof trusses to expansive CLT/SIPP panels and glulam beams, its technology continues to evolve to meet industry demands. Now, through its partnership with the Weinig Group, these cutting-edge solutions will be more accessible than ever to the UK market.

Essetre Techno Saw & Techno Saw XS

A key focus of this collaboration is the introduction of the Essetre Techno Saw and Techno Saw XS, both ideally suited for the roof truss market and timber-frame kit manufacturers.

“The timber construction sector in the UK has long sought well-engineered machines backed by professional support,” said Malcolm Cuthbertson, Managing Director of Weinig UK. “This partnership delivers exactly that.”

Essetre’s product range extends beyond roof truss and timber-frame manufacturing. The Techno Fast is designed for glulam beams and log cabin processors, while the Techno PM handles CLT and SIPP processing with a standard bed size of 13.5 × 1.25m, offering a wide range of solutions for various applications.

Expert guidance & after-sales support

Damon Harris, National Sales Manager, will provide expert guidance on production solutions and machine models, ensuring customers receive tailored recommendations. Meanwhile, after-sales support will be delivered through Weinig UK’s well-established service department, giving customers confidence in professional backup and maintenance.

“By combining Michael Weinig (UK) Ltd’s nationwide reach with Essetre’s innovative approach, we can provide real solutions that enhance profitability and efficiency for British-based roof truss and timber-frame manufacturers,” Malcolm commented.

Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner recently stated that there are “no excuses” for failing to meet the 1.5 million new homes target by 2029, highlighting the growing need for high-quality, efficient timber construction solutions. This partnership is poised to help meet that demand by equipping manufacturers with the tools they need to deliver on ambitious housing goals.
