In B2B timber sales, the ability to present a customer with a detailed, visualised proposal — rather than a generic catalogue page — is the difference between a signed contract and a lost lead. Dealers who can show precisely what a structure will look like, how it is engineered, and exactly what it costs command higher margins and close faster.
Eurodita operates a complete design-to-production workflow for its B2B partners across 38+ countries. From the first conversation to a production-ready engineering package, every step is managed in-house at the Kaunas factory — and every deliverable carries the partner’s brand, not Eurodita’s. This article details the five-stage process that turns an initial sketch into a manufactured, delivered structure.
Stage 1 — Initial Consultation
Every bespoke project begins with a structured consultation between the partner and Eurodita’s project management team. The objective is to define the technical brief completely before any drafting begins, eliminating rework and miscommunication downstream.
The consultation covers:
- Partner requirements: intended use (garden office, residential cabin, retail showroom model), target dimensions, wall profile preferences, and any regulatory constraints in the partner’s market
- Target market analysis: understanding the end customer segment helps Eurodita recommend appropriate specifications — a Scandinavian residential buyer has different insulation and glazing expectations than a UK garden office customer
- Budget and timeline alignment: establishing realistic cost parameters and delivery windows from the outset, so the engineering team designs to achievable targets
First contact to approved brief typically takes the same working day for straightforward projects. For larger or more complex structures, the consultation may extend to 2-3 days to ensure every detail is captured before committing engineering resources.
Stage 2 — Technical Drafting
Once the brief is approved, Eurodita’s in-house engineering team produces the full technical drawing package using AutoCAD and HSB CAD — the same professional software used for the factory’s production of over 12,000 structures annually.
The drawing package includes:
- Floor plans with precise dimensions and room layouts, including internal partition positions and door swing arcs
- Elevation drawings showing all external facades with cladding profiles, window positions, and roof overhang details
- Cross-section details for wall construction (solid log profiles available in 19, 28, 34, 44, 58, and 70mm; glulam in 70, 88, 135, 180, and 220mm), roof pitch angles, and foundation connection points
- Window and door placement with opening directions, handle positions, and glazing specifications
- Electrical and plumbing routing suggestions where applicable, showing recommended cable runs and pipe penetrations through log walls
Every drawing is produced to engineering precision. Eurodita’s Hundegger CNC machines (manufactured in Germany) cut to ±2mm tolerance, and the drawings reflect this production-level accuracy — these are not conceptual sketches but manufacturing instructions.
The standardised CAD libraries, built from over 30 years of production data since 1994, accelerate the drafting process significantly. Turnaround for standard catalogue modifications is 24-48 hours. Fully bespoke designs — including structures with non-standard geometries, multiple roof lines, or integrated features — are completed within 5-7 working days from the approved brief.
All drawings are delivered with the partner’s logo in the title block and company details in the document header. The end customer sees only the partner’s brand.
Stage 3 — 3D Visualisation
Technical drawings communicate engineering precision, but they do not sell structures to end customers. That is the role of Eurodita’s 3D visualisation service — photorealistic renders that show the finished building as it will appear once assembled and installed.
The visualisation team produces renders using professional 3D software, working directly from the approved CAD drawings to ensure dimensional accuracy. Every render matches the engineering package exactly — what the customer sees is what the factory produces.
Standard deliverables include:
- Multiple viewing angles: front elevation, rear view, aerial perspective, and at least one interior view showing room proportions and natural light
- Environmental context: the structure is placed in a setting appropriate to the partner’s market — a manicured garden for UK dealers, a forest clearing for Scandinavian partners, an urban plot for Central European markets. Partners can specify the environment or provide site photographs for custom placement
- Realistic material textures: timber grain patterns matching the specified wood species, accurate roofing material appearances, window frame colours, and hardware finishes
- Optional furniture placement: interior renders can include furniture to demonstrate liveable space proportions, helping end customers understand how the structure functions as a workspace, guest accommodation, or leisure room
- Partner branding: all visualisation images are delivered with the partner’s logo watermarked or placed as specified — ready for immediate use in sales presentations, website galleries, and printed brochures
Images are delivered in both print resolution (300 DPI, suitable for brochures and showroom displays) and web resolution (optimised for fast loading on dealer websites and social media). Partners receive the files in standard formats (JPEG, PNG) with no usage restrictions — they own the visuals for their brand.
For dealers competing against manufacturers who provide only generic catalogue images, these tailored, private-label visualisations represent a significant competitive advantage. The customer perceives the dealer as a company with full in-house design capability.
Stage 4 — Cost Calculation
Alongside the engineering and visualisation package, partners receive a fully itemised cost breakdown. This is not a single-line quotation — it is a detailed component-level document that enables partners to build their retail pricing with complete transparency.
The cost calculation covers:
- Wall logs: specified by profile type, thickness (e.g., 44mm solid or 88mm glulam), and total linear metres
- Roof structure: rafters, purlins, ridge beam, and boarding — itemised separately with dimensions and quantities
- Floor structure: joists, boarding, and insulation specification if included
- Windows and doors: quantity, exact dimensions, glazing type (single, double, triple), hardware specification
- Fasteners, sealants, and assembly hardware: every bolt, screw, and seal strip accounted for
- Surface treatment: stain, paint, or preservative if ordered
- Packaging specification: flat-pack configuration details for transport efficiency
- Transport cost: calculated to the specific delivery address, including any special access requirements
This approach means partners never encounter hidden costs or unexpected additions after ordering. It also allows partners to present their own customers with transparent, itemised proposals — a trust-building practice that drives repeat business and referrals.
Stage 5 — Production and Delivery
Once the partner approves the engineering package and cost calculation, the project enters production at Eurodita’s facility in Kaunas, Lithuania.
Key production details:
- CNC precision: Hundegger machines (Germany) and Auer CNC (Austria) cut every component to ±2mm tolerance, ensuring consistent assembly quality across thousands of units
- Timber quality: Nordic spruce, kiln-dried in Nardi kilns (Italy) to 16-18% moisture content for dimensional stability and longevity
- Quality control: multiple checkpoints throughout production — from raw timber grading through machining, assembly trial, and final inspection before packaging
- Flat-pack packaging: every structure is packed for efficient transport, with components labelled and sequenced for logical assembly on site
- Delivery coordination: Eurodita ships daily across Europe and the UK, with international shipments coordinated to partner schedules. Delivery timing is agreed during the consultation stage and confirmed once production begins
Production timelines from order confirmation: 2-4 weeks for standard catalogue models, 4-8 weeks for bespoke structures, and 8-12 weeks for glulam residential projects. Eurodita maintains a 98% on-time delivery rate across all product categories.
