The company SERRA welcomes a new member in its family. The company Yevea from Spain that is responsible from now on to market the SERRA Sawmills in Spain. This company is a typical family business, very active in the heart of the spanish woodworking industry. The company started many years ago looking for someone that had the experience to mill olive wood and since there was no one with such a experience they had to do their lumber theirselves. This learning process granted them experience to saw logs of ancient olive trees. This was the origin of their sawing know-how. We SERRA Maschinenbau wish the Cecetka family (Martin, Maria and Sara) all the best and lots of success For furhter information on SERRA Sawmills please contact Martin under phone number 0034 – 673 805 315
Log band sawmill with extremely robust design
In Africa, machines need be more rugged. The woods are harder and heavier, and the trunks are thicker. This is why in 2005 we developed a sawmill with an extremely rugged design specifically for Africa: the Africa XE. The success of this model in Africa has also spread to other parts of the world. The XE is a popular choice for industrial roundwood processing, plant construction and as an additional machine for cutting extremely heavy timber.
A sawmill with impressive equipment options and a top notch price/performance ratio.
Two sizes are available: The XE 135 for logs up to 135 centimetres in diameter and the XE 160 for logs up to 160 centimetres. With a cutting width of 140 centimetres, the latter can cut, e.g. the tabletop of your new regulars’ table in a matter of minutes.

I have specialized in timber and joinery wood for window and door production. I export the timber to all of Europe. I frequently use several SERRA sawmills simultaneously.
At the moment even an AFRICA SL160s in Gambia. I have been representing SERRA in Hungary for more than 15 years

Our friend and dealer for Kenya Mr. Stephan Wüthrich from Switzerland, was visiting his customers in Kenya. Everything started a couple of years ago when one customer decided to buy for a test our well known Bavaria SL110. After testing it, he was so convinced about it that he immediately ordered another sawmill.
This customer used to work with sawmills from another manufacturers and after having seen our machines and their cutting quality and productivity, he decided to place a order for a complete sawmilling plant that includes our well known SERRA Bavaria SL110 (Unique sawmill that adapts hidraulically to the log diameter) and one SERRA multisawhead model MK402
