Private-label log cabin manufacturing is a B2B supply model where a factory produces finished timber structures branded entirely under the dealer’s name. Eurodita, based in Kaunas, Lithuania, manufactures approximately 12,000 standard catalogue timber buildings per year on average for trade partners across multiple markets, with order scope and lead times confirmed in the written quotation for standard models.
What Is Private-Label Log Cabin Manufacturing?
Key Facts: Private-Label Log Cabin Manufacturing (2026)
- No single fixed minimum order: order scope is confirmed in each quotation
- Standard catalogue production is scheduled from the confirmed order, and the EXW-ready date is stated in the written quotation before release from Kaunas. Bespoke designs: confirmed in the written quotation.
- Wall thickness options range from 19 mm to 220 mm (solid log and glulam)
- Northern European spruce and pine, with sourcing documentation available per order where the supplier documentation supports it
- Private-label service: assembly instructions, documentation and 3D visuals can be produced in your branding, where agreed for the order
- Resale pricing is set by the dealer. Eurodita quotes a wholesale price, EXW Kaunas, with VAT and delivery excluded, and publishes no price list
- Payment terms: 50/50 split (50% on order, 50% before dispatch)
Private-label manufacturing means a factory produces goods that a reseller markets and sells under their own brand name. In the log cabin sector, this means a dealer in the UK, Germany, or the Netherlands can sell timber buildings to their customers with their own logo, documentation, and branding, while the actual manufacturing happens at a specialist facility, typically in the Baltic states, Scandinavia, or Central Europe.
For timber building dealers, private-label supply offers three core advantages: margin preservation (no competing on price against your own supplier), brand equity building, and supply chain simplification. Instead of sourcing from multiple manufacturers, you work with one partner who covers your full product range.
Key Takeaway: Private-label log cabin supply lets dealers sell under their own brand, with the documentation their customers see produced in the dealer’s branding where agreed for the order.
How Private-Label Cabin Sourcing Works: Step by Step
The private-label supply process with a manufacturer like Eurodita follows a consistent five-stage workflow:
- Initial Enquiry, Submit your product requirements: cabin type, wall thickness, dimensions, and volume estimate. No order commitment is needed at this stage.
- 3D Render and Quote, For standard catalogue items, pricing is provided in a written quotation. Eurodita prepares the complete quotation, CAD, 3D visualisation and technical drawing package per enquiry after receiving a complete brief.
- Order Confirmation and Deposit, Once pricing is agreed, a production slot is secured with a deposit. The standard terms are 50% with the order and 50% before dispatch.
- Production, Components are cut on Hundegger CNC machinery, with the tolerances for a specific product confirmed with the order.
- Kit Delivery, Cabins are delivered as numbered, assembly-ready kits with detailed plans. The documentation your customers see can carry your branding instead of Eurodita’s, where agreed for the order.
What Decides a Reseller’s Margin
Eurodita does not publish a margin figure and does not set or recommend a resale price. What a reseller earns is decided by the reseller, and Eurodita has no visibility into it. What Eurodita fixes is the wholesale side: scope and price are confirmed in the written quotation, EXW Kaunas, with VAT and delivery excluded, on 50/50 payment terms, with no public price list and no universal minimum order quantity. What moves your own side of the arithmetic is the specification and wall profile you choose, how many units you plan per shipment, the freight route you use, whether you assemble or subcontract, and how you position the product locally. A private-label cabin also cannot be price matched line for line against a branded catalogue product, which is the point of the model.
| Product Type | What Eurodita Quotes | What Moves Your Own Cost | Who Sets the Retail Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Garden cabin (28-44mm) | Wholesale price per unit, EXW Kaunas, VAT and delivery excluded | Wall profile, units per shipment, freight route | You |
| Garden office (44-70mm) | Wholesale price per unit, EXW Kaunas, VAT and delivery excluded | Wall profile, glazing and joinery choice, freight route | You |
| Insulated cabin (88mm+) | Wholesale price per unit, EXW Kaunas, VAT and delivery excluded | Wall build-up, load planning, assemble or subcontract | You |
| Glulam home (135mm+) | Wholesale price per project, EXW Kaunas, VAT and delivery excluded | Specification, drawings scope, load planning, freight route | You |
Key Takeaway: Eurodita quotes the wholesale price and nothing beyond it. Product selection and resale pricing are the dealer’s own commercial decisions.
How to Evaluate a Private-Label Log Cabin Manufacturer
Not all private-label manufacturers offer the same quality, flexibility, or reliability. Use this eight-point checklist when evaluating a potential supply partner:
- Annual production capacity, Ask for the manufacturer’s annual output and how it is measured, and how it plans production when order volumes rise.
- Timber certification, Ask which timber species and region the manufacturer uses, and what sourcing or certification documentation it can supply for your specific order.
- CNC precision manufacturing, CNC machinery (for example Hundegger) cuts components more consistently than hand cutting. Ask what tolerances the manufacturer works to for your products.
- Bespoke capability, Can they produce custom floor plans? What is the turnaround time for a bespoke quote?
- CE marking, In the EU, structural timber products covered by a harmonised European standard generally need CE marking. Ask the manufacturer which of its products this applies to and what documentation it supplies for your market.
- Private-label completeness, Does your brand appear on the delivery note, packing list, and component plans? Or just on the packaging?
- Dealer references, Speak to 2-3 active dealers in your target market. Ask specifically about after-sales support and defect handling.
- Financial stability, A manufacturer that goes under mid-production is a major risk. Check trading history and ask for trade references.
Private-Label Log Cabins: UK vs EU Market Differences
The UK and EU markets for private-label log cabins share the same core product categories but differ significantly in regulatory requirements, consumer expectations, and dealer economics.
In the UK, garden buildings under 2.5m in height and within the property boundary typically require no planning permission, creating high demand for entry-level cabins. Since Brexit, Great Britain has had its own product marking rules for construction products, and they have changed more than once, so check the current requirements for the products you plan to sell. Retail pricing in the UK is set by each dealer, and Eurodita neither sets it nor sees it.
In the EU, structural timber products covered by a harmonised European standard generally need CE marking. VAT treatment varies by country and transaction, and is confirmed for each order. EU dealers often plan larger volumes per shipment, and price their own resale accordingly.
Key Takeaway: Resale pricing is a local decision in both markets, and it belongs to the dealer. Eurodita states the wholesale price, EXW Kaunas, with VAT and delivery excluded.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum order quantity for private-label log cabins?
u003cpu003eThere is no single universal minimum. Each order is assessed on the product, quantity, manufacturing economics and transport. Standard 19 mm and 28 to 44 mm products are volume-driven, while 58 and 70 mm walls, bespoke designs and glulam are more flexible, and a single unit can be a normal order for them. A new trade partner can usually start with one pilot unit where the order makes commercial sense. The agreed scope and price are set out in a written quotation.u003c/pu003e
Do you supply assembly instructions and technical documentation under my brand?
u003cpu003eYes, where it is agreed for the order. Under Eurodita’s private-label model you control the customer-facing brand, and quotation and project documentation can be produced under your company name and logo instead of Eurodita’s: 3D visuals, CAD floor plans and elevations, specifications and window and door schedules. Which documents, including assembly instructions, are supplied under your brand or unbranded is confirmed per order, so list what your customers will see when you request the quotation.u003c/pu003e
Are Eurodita log cabins CE-marked?
u003cpu003eEurodita makes no blanket claim that its cabins are CE-marked or otherwise certified. CE marking applies to construction products covered by a harmonised European standard or a European Technical Assessment, so where a market or project needs it, the route is confirmed for that product, destination and order before anything is promised. What Eurodita does run is recurring factory quality control, from incoming timber, moisture and CNC profiling accuracy to joints, completeness and a final pre-dispatch inspection; that is an operational practice, not a certification.u003c/pu003e
How long does production and delivery take?
u003cpu003eThere is no standard figure to publish. Production timing depends on the product, wall profile, factory workload, season and project complexity, and glulam varies most, so the timing for your order is confirmed in the written quotation. Delivery is separate: Eurodita ships through third-party carriers and forwarders, freight is quoted for the specific route and load, and the arrival date given for a shipment is an estimate rather than a guarantee.u003c/pu003e
Can I visit the production facility before placing an order?
u003cpu003eYes, by arrangement. Contact the Eurodita sales team at sales@eurodita.com to agree a date. Eurodita manufactures in Kaunas, Lithuania, with Hundegger CNC machining and Nardi kiln drying, and produces approximately 12,000 standard catalogue timber buildings a year on average.u003c/pu003e
Can Eurodita manufacture to my own designs?
u003cpu003eYes, within project-specific limits. You can send an idea, a sketch or an architectural drawing, and Eurodita can turn it into a manufacturable, priced proposal with CAD drawings and 3D visuals, subject to technical and commercial review. Dimensions and feasibility are assessed project by project, and bespoke, modified and glulam projects are individually calculated rather than priced from the standard catalogue. The proposal can be produced under your own brand where agreed.u003c/pu003e
