About the company

MicroDri is a startup that was started in 2019 together with the defense and security company SAAB. Based on expertise and technology from SAAB, the company is developing a microwave-based solution for wood drying where you can follow and adapt the drying process on an individual level instead of drying large packages of wood at the same time as is done today.

The vision is to become a global leader in flexible, cost-effective and sustainable microwave-based drying that leads the industry in the transition to emission-free wood production.

Together with two of the largest sawmill companies in Sweden, SCA and Holmen, MicroDri is now working to develop and manufacture the first industrial prototype of the microwave system that will be delivered to a customer during the year. It is a very exciting phase that is happening at a high pace and there are great opportunities to shape your role in the company.
