About us

Engineering office with its own production

LIGNA systems is a system supplier of timber structures for commercial and industrial building construction: planned, manufactured, delivered and installed from a single source. Since 2008, today with 80 employees at four locations.

Who we are

Since 2008, one house for the whole structure

LIGNA systems was founded in 2008 by Olivier Dupuis in Sankt Vith and is a system supplier of timber structures for commercial and industrial building construction: 80 employees, more than 600 completed projects, customers in Europe and North America.

The core is still the same today: we are an engineering office with our own production. Planning happens in-house, manufacturing in our own factory, delivery and assembly according to the model that fits your project. You do not coordinate between contractors, the responsibility across all phases lies with us.
