Our history

Taigatech's roots

The idea for Taigatech came from a bachelor's thesis at a sawmill from one of the leading Nordic sawmill groups. The objective of our first project was to digitize the value chain by creating traceability of the raw material with image analysis. With new technology from Chalmers University of Technology, we created a unique fingerprint of each log's end surface.

After that, we have developed solutions to control log turning at the saw, camera systems for quality inspection and automated process monitoring. Today, the team consists of six dedicated employees with an office in Gothenburg.
