SmartPly Europe Ltd

This notice is placed on foot of Article 37 of Directive 2004/18/EC, which invites voluntary publication where the Public Sector Directive does not apply.
SmartPly Europe is situated at Belview Port, near Waterford city and has produced Oriented Strand Board (OSB) since 1996 for a range of structural applications including flooring, wall sheathing, roofing, hoarding, furniture and packaging. OSB is a strong, durable wood panel which is increasingly used throughout Europe in the Offsite construction sector. It is manufactured by compressing precisely engineered strands of wood with gluing resins at high temperature to create a strong and versatile panel. It is an innovative, environmentally sustainable timber based solution for structural and non structural building applications. A significant volume of the factory output is exported, comprising over 40 different products. SmartPly are a leading supplier of premium OSB products in Europe.
SmartPly have plans to modernize the SmartPly OSB facility with an investment in new equipment for biomass heat energy, wood strand drying, screening, pressing and panel finishing.
SmartPly invites expressions of interest for participants in a competitive dialogue procedure leading to the supply of an OSB continuous press of nominal output of 330 000 m3 p.a. OSB with an integrated panel finishing line including cut to size and packaging operations complete with ancillary works.
The chosen equipment must conform to best practice design principles and all relevant European legislation. It is anticipated that order placement will be in the timeframe of Q3 2011, with final project construction completion by Q1 2013.
As SmartPly is not in a position to specify the precise nature of the equipment required, we are employing a competitive dialogue procedure for this procurement. It is emphasized, however, that as SmartPly is not subject to the public procurement rules, the specific provisions of Directive 2004/18/EC will not apply to this procurement.
