Our New Pelletizing Plant

We now also carry pellets—available by the bag, by the pallet, and by the truckload.

We operate our own biomass power plant, which heats our wood-drying facilities.

In addition, we generate more electricity than we need at our sawmill.

Since 2014, we have been continuously expanding our solar power systems—another pillar of our electricity supply is hydropower, which has been in operation for generations.

Satisfied customers worldwide

Our wood is popular everywhere, from our home base in Stuttgart to the far corners of the world. However, we place great importance on ensuring that the sawn timber is further processed within the country and exported by our customers as finished products such as glulam, engineered timber, wooden crates, etc. This keeps the value added within the country and helps secure jobs.
