Rosta has logged many international success stories for clients in the wood industry and beyond for close to 80 years. For example, a few years ago, Rosta offered an ATEX motor base for CMC Texpan, a major supplier for machinery and plants in the woodworking sector, based in Colzate, Italy. Using this motor base, CMC Texpan was able to suppress fire and explosion risks at its facility, which increased employee health and safety substantially.

Forestry and wood companies continue to remain profitable and competitive with Rosta solutions.
