The company operates a sawmill located in the western part of Latvia, near the ice-free port of Ventspils, an area surrounded by some of the country's largest forest tracts.

Its purchasing price lists and quality criteria are published in the sawlog procurement section of its website.

Its construction materials carry CE marking and are produced according to EN 14081-1, with visual or machine strength grading. Products can be dried to transport moisture content, sorted, planed or calibrated, and impregnated where required. Kurekss positions itself around quality, investment, and sustainability. It states that investment is its quality guarantee and supports sustainable forestry policy. The company holds FSC Chain of Custody certification (FSC C006364) and maintains compliance with the PEFC 2002:2020 wood supply chain standard. Its environmental goal is to preserve and maintain biological diversity at current levels while balancing public, economic, and environmental interests.
