About us
We must give every customer the opportunity to enjoy the warmth of wooden floors – this is the passion and dream of the founder of the company, which led him to start a family business. Back in 1995, UAB 'Elitėja' was founded, and it is now managed by the second generation.
With 30 years of experience, we constantly improve the production process and product quality, using only the latest technologies in our activities. Every day, we strive to improve and grow. We pay special attention to quality control at every stage of production, ensuring we offer our customers only the highest quality and exquisitely designed wood products: solid wood parquet, oak parquet, ash parquet, double-layer parquet boards, doors, windowsills, stair treads, furniture, and other wood products.
The quality of our products has been recognized not only in Lithuania but also abroad, as nearly 90% of all production by the company is exported to European, American, and Asian countries.
The 'Elitėja' factory is located in the industrial part of the city, within the former premises of one of the largest wood processing plants in Lithuania. The factory operates four workshops: solid wood parquet, double-layer parquet boards, final processing, and carpentry, employing over 100 staff members. Nine computerized convection drying chambers guarantee a continuous supply of properly prepared raw materials for production. Extremely strict standards are adhered to here. Oak is sent to production only after reaching the required moisture content of 8-7%. The production process is meticulously monitored at every stage to ensure the highest quality of the products.
Extremely precise and high-quality German machines are used in production, ensuring highly accurate product parameters. We gain a competitive advantage by combining machine work with the skilled craftsmanship of our team. Specialists manually fill each branch with ecological Swiss 'Novoryt' putty. Once grouted, suitable boards are selected and sent to the sanding machine. The final and one of the most crucial stages is the wood coating. Most of our production is coated with OSMO wax oil using the latest oiling line, which meets the highest quality standards, with our technologists playing a key role in its improvement.
For customers seeking non-standard solutions, we offer UV oil, UV varnish, as well as wood combing and fumigation. The highest-quality oak and ash parquet boards, double-layer parquet boards, and solid oak floors are easily adaptable to these premium treatments.
The heart of the company is the sawmill, located on the outskirts of Panevėžys, surrounded by nature. The sawmill consists of two processing workshops, employing 32 specialists in their field. Many of these specialists are long-term employees, sharing their experience with younger colleagues.
The logs come from the finest Lithuanian forests, where only the best oak is carefully selected. This selection process ensures that only the highest quality oak reaches the sawmill. The sawmill processes approximately 1,300 m³ of logs per month, ensuring a constant supply of raw materials for the factory.
