Since its establishment in 1999, Universalūs medžio produktai (UMP) has grown into a respected manufacturing partner within the European furniture supply chain. Founded as part of the Baltic-American Concord group, the company was created in response to rising demand for high-quality wood components. Early investment in production capacity, technology and people enabled rapid growth, positioning UMP today as a leading Lithuanian manufacturer employing more than 120 professionals and supplying both local and international furniture brands.

UMP's core activity is the wholesale production of furniture components made from natural birch and beech wood, MDF and laminated plywood. Working strictly to customer drawings and specifications, the company produces profiles, furniture legs, stretchers, drawer components and CNC-manufactured parts. This project-based manufacturing model allows UMP to combine large-scale production with a high degree of customisation. Automated processes and modern equipment ensure consistent precision and repeatability, while experienced teams enable flexibility, even for complex or high-volume orders.
The company's approach to production is grounded in respect for wood as a living material, shaped by long-standing craftsmanship traditions. This material sensitivity is paired with advanced CNC technologies and optimised workflows, enabling both efficiency and refined detailing. By closely following furniture and interior design trends, UMP is able to support a broad stylistic spectrum, from classic forms to contemporary, minimalist design language. This balance between tradition and innovation allows the company to deliver components that are durable, precise and visually refined.

Technological development plays a central role in UMP's strategy. The company is actively expanding advanced surface finishing solutions, including water-based, water UV and 100% UV coatings that meet strict environmental standards while enhancing durability and surface quality. In parallel, UMP is testing powder coating technology for wood and MDF components. Although still in the evaluation phase, this innovation opens new possibilities for surface performance, design expression and sustainable manufacturing. Looking ahead, further investments will focus on sustainable materials, improved material efficiency and waste reduction across production.
Like much of the furniture industry, UMP operates within a volatile global market shaped by raw material price fluctuations, rising energy costs and growing sustainability expectations. The company addresses these challenges through transparent processes, stable quality standards and its FSC® Chain of Custody certification, reinforcing its position as a responsible and reliable partner for international clients.

Over the next three to five years, UMP's focus is on steady, sustainable growth, with increased emphasis on higher value-added components and expanded customised solutions. Continued investment in employee expertise and production technologies will support this ambition. More than a component supplier, UMP positions itself as a long-term manufacturing partner, building durable products and durable relationships for a furniture industry that increasingly values precision, responsibility and adaptability.
