Timber Sourcing — FSC + PEFC Certification
Every cubic metre of timber processed at Eurodita’s Lithuanian facility — approximately 150,000 m³ annually — originates from Nordic-sourced or Northern European Nordic spruce forests across the Baltic states, Finland and Sweden. Slow-grown northern spruce delivers the tight grain density (typically 470-520 kg/m³) and dimensional stability required for structural log construction, glulam fabrication and high-tolerance CNC machining.
FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) is the most widely recognised forest certification scheme in B2B construction procurement. FSC chain-of-custody (CoC) guarantees timber is traceable from the forest of origin through every processing stage. For dealers, FSC is often the minimum requirement for tenders involving local authority projects, RIBA-architect schemes, hospitality operators with ESG mandates and developments pursuing BREEAM, LEED or HQM credits.
PEFC (Programme for Endorsement of Forest Certification) is the dominant European framework, particularly strong across Nordic and Baltic forests. Eurodita maintains both FSC and PEFC chains of custody so dealers can match whichever scheme their end-client specifies — a procurement advantage when bidding into mixed UK + EU project pipelines.
Documentation per order: FSC/PEFC certification reference, supplier chain-of-custody numbers, species declaration (Picea abies — Nordic spruce) and harvest region. This goes into the dealer’s project file and can be presented to architects, planning officers, building control surveyors or end-customers during due diligence.
EUDR 2026 Due Diligence + Compliance
The EU Deforestation Regulation (Regulation EU 2023/1115, “EUDR”) becomes mandatory for in-scope commodities — including wood products — placed on the EU market or exported from the EU from 30 December 2026. It applies to operators (Eurodita as manufacturer/exporter) and traders (dealer/distributor onward sale). UK importers should treat EUDR documentation as best practice given parallel diligence expectations under UK timber procurement frameworks.
What EUDR requires:
- Geolocation coordinates of every plot where timber was harvested
- Date or time-range of harvest
- Country of production
- Harmonised System (HS) code per product line (typically 4407, 4409, 4418 for sawn timber, profiled timber and prefabricated buildings)
- A Due Diligence Statement (DDS) submitted via the EU Information System before placing on the market
- Demonstration that the timber is “deforestation-free” (post 31 December 2020) and produced in compliance with country-of-harvest legislation
Eurodita’s EUDR package per order from 2026: geolocation polygon data per timber lot, harvest date range, supplier legal compliance attestations, country of harvest, HS code mapping per line item and the submitted DDS reference. EU dealers can rely on this dataset to file their downstream DDS without duplicating diligence work. UK dealers shipping into EU territories receive an EUDR-ready dataset for their EU-side import partner.
Manufacturing + Structural Certifications
Manufacturing operates against an integrated stack of European harmonised standards governing engineered timber, structural performance and market-access marking.
EN 14080:2013 — Timber structures, glued laminated timber, requirements is the European harmonised standard for glulam and glued solid timber. It defines strength classes (GL 24h, GL 28h, GL 30h, GL 32h), adhesive performance under service-class conditions, finger-joint integrity, lamellae specification and Factory Production Control (FPC). EN 14080 conformity is the prerequisite for CE marking of structural glulam. Eurodita’s glulam line is manufactured to EN 14080:2013 with batch-traced grading and adhesive certification.
CE marking under Construction Products Regulation (EU) 305/2011 (CPR) is mandatory for construction products covered by a harmonised standard on the EU market. Eurodita issues a Declaration of Performance (DoP) per product family declaring reaction to fire, mechanical resistance, thermal performance and durability. The CE mark, DoP and test reports travel with each order.
UKCA marking is the UK post-Brexit conformity mark for products on the GB market where they fall outside continued CE recognition. Under current UK Government policy extending CE recognition for construction products without a stated end date, Eurodita supplies CE-marked product into the UK with a UK Designated Standard cross-reference, giving dealers audit-ready documentation for either regime.
EN 1995 — Eurocode 5: Design of timber structures is the European structural design code applied to all bespoke Eurodita projects. Calculations use Eurocode 5 with the national annex (UK NA, German DIN NA, French NA, etc.) matched to the destination market, covering ULS, SLS, wind loading per EN 1991-1-4 and snow loading per EN 1991-1-3.
Quality management runs against ISO 9001-aligned procedures with documented FPC covering raw material acceptance, in-process inspection and finished product release. Specific ISO 9001 status should be verified with the Eurodita technical team for the destination market.
Manufacturing tolerance: Hundegger CNC machining (Germany-engineered) holds dimensional tolerance to ±2mm across log profile, joint geometry and aperture cut-outs, ensuring on-site assembly without field re-cutting.
Mobile Home + Trailer-Mounted Standards
Eurodita’s mobile log cabin and park home range complies with residential and trailer-mounted standards for UK and European park placement.
BS 3632:2015 — Residential park homes. Specification is the UK standard for factory-built single-family residential dwellings for permanent occupation on a residential park. It covers structural performance, weather resistance, thermal insulation (U-values consistent with Part L), fire safety, ventilation, electrical safety, water, drainage and sanitation. Eurodita mobile log cabin units for UK residential park placement are manufactured to full BS 3632:2015 including the thermal performance criteria for year-round habitable use.
BS EN 1647:2017 — Leisure accommodation vehicles. Caravan holiday homes is the European standard for trailer-mounted holiday-use caravan homes, governing habitation, gas and electrical safety, fire safety and ventilation for non-residential leisure use. Eurodita units for European holiday parks are manufactured to BS EN 1647:2017.
UK Caravan Sites Act 1968 sets the dimensional definition of a “caravan”. Twin-unit caravans: max length 20.0m, width 6.8m, internal height 3.05m; single-unit: length 18.0m, width 6.8m. Compliance permits siting as a “caravan” under planning law without separate building consent. Eurodita mobile cabin products are dimensioned within the Act’s definition.
Mobile Homes Act 1983 (as amended 2013) governs the legal relationship between residential park home owners and site operators in England and Wales. The Act regulates occupancy, not the cabin; dealers selling into UK residential parks should understand BS 3632 compliance is the build-side requirement supporting lawful residential placement.
Holiday park vs residential park: Holiday parks prohibit permanent residential occupation; cabins are built to BS EN 1647 (leisure). Residential parks permit permanent occupation and require BS 3632 (residential). Eurodita supplies both — the dealer specifies destination park type at order placement.
Building Regulations — UK Part L, Part B, Part M
Where a Eurodita structure is built as a “habitable building” under UK planning consent (rather than sited as a caravan), the UK Building Regulations apply.
Part L — Conservation of fuel and power. Habitable dwellings must meet Approved Document L (2021 ed. with 2023 amendments, transitioning to Future Homes Standard). Wall U-values: 44mm ~1.0-1.1 W/m²K (garden room / non-habitable), 70mm ~0.5-0.7 W/m²K, 90mm ~0.40-0.55 W/m²K, twin-skin or insulated hybrid 0.18-0.30 W/m²K for habitable dwellings. Roof, floor and glazing U-values are specified per project.
Part B — Fire safety. Solid log walls offer inherent fire resistance via controlled char-rate behaviour: typical REI 30-60 minutes for solid log depending on thickness, and REI 60-90 minutes for engineered glulam sized to Eurocode 5 fire design (EN 1995-1-2). Charring calculations are supplied for projects requiring documented fire engineering.
Part M — Access to and use of buildings. Bespoke residential dwellings can be specified to Part M Category 2 (accessible/adaptable) or Category 3 (wheelchair-accessible) — step-free thresholds, widened door apertures, accessible WC layouts and corridor widths.
Part P — Electrical safety. Electrical first-fix can be supplied to a defined specification, but final connection, certification and Part P notification must be completed by a Competent Person Scheme registered electrician on site.
Warranty + Quality Assurance
Eurodita warranty positioning sits in the premium tier of the European log cabin sector.
10-year structural anti-rot warranty covers the log shell, glulam load-bearing elements and primary timber framing against rot, structural failure and timber decay, subject to correct site preparation, installation per assembly instructions, regular maintenance (re-application of breathable timber treatment) and absence of standing water at the base course. Industry-standard log cabin warranties typically run 2-5 years; the 10-year cover is a deliberate B2B positioning advantage for dealers in commercial, hospitality and high-spec residential segments.
2-year standard warranty covers joinery (windows, doors), glazing units, ironmongery and finished surfaces against manufacturing defects. Extended options are available where procurement requires.
Material: Timber kiln-dried to 16-18% moisture content prior to machining, with batch moisture testing. Glulam adhesives conform to EN 301 / EN 15425 service class requirements.
Quality: Hundegger CNC five-axis machining delivers ±2mm dimensional tolerance. Inspection is logged at three stages: raw timber acceptance, mid-production and pre-dispatch.
Delivery: Internal benchmark of 95%+ on-time dispatch against confirmed dispatch dates.

Private-label option: Documentation can be co-branded under the dealer’s identity — dealer logo, contact details and warranty registration routed through the dealer entity rather than Eurodita. This supports the private-label B2B model where the dealer is the brand-of-record to the end-customer.
How Dealers Use Eurodita Certifications in Sales
Certification documentation is a B2B sales asset, not a back-office artefact. Dealers integrate the pack into the customer-facing process:
- Tender + quotation: FSC, PEFC and CE references are quoted in proposals, particularly for local-authority, architect-led and ESG-mandated procurement.
- Marketing material: Dealer websites, brochures and social content reference Nordic spruce sourced from northern European forestry sourcing, CE/UKCA conformity and the 10-year structural warranty as trust signals.
- Planning application support: Thermal data (Part L), fire engineering (Part B) and structural calculations (Eurocode 5) submitted alongside planning and Building Control applications.
- End-customer handover: The pack is handed to the end-customer at delivery, becoming part of their permanent project and warranty file — a trust signal differentiating Eurodita-supplied dealers from import-trade competitors.
- Building Control inspection files: UK Building Control surveyors increasingly request manufacturer documentation for engineered timber; dealers can present the Eurodita pack on demand.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Eurodita Nordic-sourced?
Yes. Eurodita maintains FSC chain-of-custody certification across its Lithuanian production facility, with every order traceable back to Nordic spruce sourced from northern European forestry forests. The FSC certificate reference is supplied with each project documentation pack and can be presented to architects, BREEAM assessors, local authority procurement teams or hospitality operators with ESG mandates.
What does EN 14080:2013 mean for glulam homes?
EN 14080:2013 is the European harmonised standard for glued laminated timber. It defines strength classes (GL 24h, GL 28h, GL 30h), adhesive performance, finger-joint integrity and Factory Production Control. Compliance with EN 14080 is the prerequisite for CE marking of structural glulam components and is the foundation of any glulam home’s structural credentials.
Are Eurodita mobile homes compliant with BS 3632?
Yes. Eurodita mobile log cabin units intended for UK residential park placement are manufactured to BS 3632:2015 specification, covering structural, thermal, fire safety, electrical, water and ventilation requirements for year-round residential occupation. Dealers should confirm the destination park type (residential vs holiday) at order placement so the correct standard (BS 3632 vs BS EN 1647) is applied.
What is UKCA marking and does Eurodita provide it?
UKCA (UK Conformity Assessed) is the UK post-Brexit conformity mark for products placed on the GB market. Under current UK Government policy, CE marking continues to be recognised for construction products without a stated end date. Eurodita supplies CE-marked products into the UK accompanied by a UK Designated Standard cross-reference, giving dealers audit-ready documentation regardless of which marking regime applies at the project level.
Does Eurodita comply with EUDR 2026 for UK and EU B2B shipments?
Yes. From the regulation’s mandatory date (30 December 2026), every Eurodita order placed onto the EU market is supplied with a full Due Diligence Statement reference, geolocation polygon data per timber lot, harvest date range, country of harvest and HS code mapping. UK dealers shipping onward into the EU receive an EUDR-ready dataset for use by their EU-side import counterparty.
What U-value does a 70mm Eurodita wall achieve?
A 70mm solid log wall typically achieves a U-value of 0.5-0.7 W/m²K, depending on detailing, sealing and the inclusion of any internal lining. For habitable dwellings requiring Part L compliance, Eurodita supplies thicker wall sections, twin-skin construction or insulated hybrid wall systems achieving 0.18-0.30 W/m²K. Project-specific U-value calculations are supplied per order.
Are structural calculations provided with bespoke orders?
Yes. Bespoke and engineered orders are supplied with a complete structural calculation set produced under Eurocode 5 (EN 1995), with the relevant national annex selected to match the destination country. Calculations cover ultimate limit state, serviceability, wind loading (EN 1991-1-4) and snow loading (EN 1991-1-3) per project geometry and location.
Can dealer customers get certification documentation under their brand?
Yes. Eurodita operates a private-label B2B model where the documentation pack can be co-branded under the dealer’s identity. Dealer logo, contact details and warranty registration routing can be substituted into the standard pack so the end-customer experiences the dealer as the brand-of-record.
What warranty applies to log cabins installed in commercial or hospitality use?
The 10-year structural anti-rot warranty applies across all use cases including commercial, hospitality, glamping and short-let rental, subject to correct installation and the recommended maintenance schedule. The 2-year joinery and glazing warranty also applies in commercial use, with extended-term options available for larger commercial portfolio orders.
How does Eurodita’s 10-year warranty compare to industry standard?
The European log cabin manufacturing sector typically offers 2-5 year structural warranty cover. Eurodita’s 10-year structural cover is positioned at the premium tier of the market and is a deliberate procurement advantage for dealers competing in commercial, architect-led and high-specification residential segments where warranty term is a tendered evaluation criterion.
