The origins of Mill Panel go back to 1908 when the Van Hout wooden shoe factory was first established in Mill. By 1913 the factory had developed into a sawmill, and it then went on to become a leading world-wide supplier of peeled and high-grade veneer. This in turn was the basis for a panel manufacturing department set up in 1971, and thirty years later in 2001, that department became the independent company of today known as Mill Panel BV.
In 2002 the production of peeled veneer was moved to Gabon in Africa. Mill Panel facilitated the move by actively contributing to the construction of new veneer factories there. This helps to explain why we have been able to build up such a broad range of expertise in the field of Okoumé veneering, and an ongoing supply of veneer is guaranteed thanks to our excellent relations with the manufacturers.
