Crailsheim Sawmill
Anyone looking for a high-performance sawmill in the Crailsheim area generally doesn’t need a large, faceless supplier, but rather a reliable regional partner for wood, lumber, and wood construction products. This is exactly where Hirschbach comes in. Even though our location isn’t directly in Crailsheim—but rather in Sulzbach-Laufen—we’ve been an integral part of the regional timber supply in the Crailsheim, Ellwangen, and Schwäbisch Hall area for many decades.
We are recognized as a reliable service provider by carpentry shops, timber construction companies, craft businesses, and both residential and commercial customers, offering local access, high quality, and consistent service. Our goal is to support projects in the region efficiently, sustainably, and in a spirit of partnership.
A local sawmill with experience and expertise
Hirschbach is a long-established sawmill and wood processing company in Baden-Württemberg. The roots of our family-owned business go back a long way; industrial wood processing has been taking place at the Sulzbach-Laufen site for over 100 years. Today, Claudia Hirschbach and Bernd Hirschbach are the fourth generation to lead the company.
With approximately 75 employees, we are one of the leading lumber suppliers and employers in the Hohenlohe/Schwäbisch Hall region. Many customers from Crailsheim particularly appreciate our combination of experience, modern technology, and personalized advice. For us, the focus is not on making a quick sale, but on building long-term partnerships with customers in the trades, commerce, and construction industries.
Modern Technology and Efficient Operations
Hirschbach consistently relies on modern production processes. Our sawmill uses high-performance circular saw technology, automated sorting systems, and additional drying chambers. This enables us to process approximately 200,000 solid cubic meters of wood annually while ensuring consistently high quality.
Another key component of our operations is our in-house biomass power plant, which began operations in 2020. It uses wood waste from production to generate energy and supplies both our company and nearby households with green electricity. In this way, we combine economic efficiency with responsible use of resources.
Wood Products for Crailsheim and the Surrounding Area
As a regional timber partner, we offer a wide range of wood products to meet a variety of needs. Our focus is on the production and delivery of sawn lumber and raw materials for timber construction. We primarily process spruce and Douglas fir from the region.
Our most important products include, among others:
- Sawn lumber, boards, slats, square-edged lumber, frames, and floorboards
- Raw material for solid structural lumber (KVH) and glued laminated timber (BSH)
- Wood products for carpentry, timber construction, commercial, and residential customers
- Byproducts such as bark mulch, wood chips, and sawdust
Thanks to our large inventory, many materials are available on short notice. This allows us to serve construction projects in the Crailsheim area flexibly and reliably—even when needs arise at short notice.

Sustainability and Responsibility in the Region
As a company with deep regional roots, we are committed to the environment, our employees, and our customers. Most of our wood comes from local forests, which keeps transportation distances short and reduces emissions. At the same time, we help secure jobs and generate economic value in the region.
For customers in the Crailsheim area, this means a sustainable supply of wood products that makes sense both environmentally and economically. For us, sustainability is not an afterthought, but an integral part of our daily operations.

In addition, private customers also use our wood products for new construction, renovations, or projects involving garden and deck construction.
