Sawmill in the Dinkelsbühl region

Hirschbach is a family-run sawmill with over 100 years of history. Our roots trace back to an old mill site on the Kocher River, where hydropower once served as the foundation for commercial operations. Over generations, this evolved into a modern sawmill, now run by the fourth generation of the family. This historical development is more than just tradition—it is the foundation of our philosophy. For us, wood is not merely a commodity, but a natural resource that demands respect. The combination of artisanal expertise and industrial efficiency makes us a strong partner for customers in the Dinkelsbühl area who value quality and consistency.

The location in Baden-Württemberg offers definite logistical advantages in southern Germany: From here, we efficiently and reliably deliver wood products, including to the Dinkelsbühl region, which lies on the border between Bavaria and Württemberg and is home to an active wood industry and a strong tradition of craftsmanship.

Product Line and Availability

The product range at our sawmill near Dinkelsbühl is deliberately broad to cover a wide variety of applications in timber construction.

Thanks to our extensive storage capacity, we can reliably provide you with all standard sizes. Predictable delivery capabilities are crucial, especially for construction projects in the Dinkelsbühl area.

Performance Profile of the Hirschbach Sawmill

Our sawmill offers a comprehensive range of services related to sawn lumber and wood finishing. In addition to production itself, we place a strong emphasis on precisely tailoring our services to meet individual project requirements.

Our core services include:

  • Production of boards, beams, floorboards, and square-edged lumber
  • Raw material for KVH (solid structural lumber)
  • Precision cutting to customer specifications
  • Industrial Planing and Surface Finishing
  • Industrial drying in modern drying chambers
  • Heat Treatment in Accordance with the IPPC Standard

Our cutting service, in particular, is important to many of our customers. Whether you need a specific wood thickness, a custom length, or project-specific dimensions—the material is tailored precisely to your requirements. In our in-house planing mill, we also produce high-quality surfaces that can be used both indoors and outdoors, as well as in garden and exterior cladding applications.

Wood Species and Quality Standards

At our sawmill, we primarily process domestic softwood from sustainably managed forests. Our core product lines consist of spruce and fir. Douglas fir is used primarily in applications where increased weather resistance is required, such as in outdoor settings or for long-lasting structures. We also process pine on a small scale.

Each batch of lumber is selected according to clearly defined quality criteria. Lumber thickness, grain direction, and structural properties are always taken into account to ensure consistently high quality. The result is sawn lumber that meets both structural and aesthetic requirements.

Sustainability as a Principle We Live By

Sustainability is an integral part of our Hirschbach corporate philosophy. As a result, the wood we process comes primarily from regional forestry operations in Baden-Württemberg. Short transport distances reduce emissions while also strengthening regional economic growth.

An important milestone in the area of sustainability was the commissioning of our own biomass power plant in 2020. With a boiler capacity of 5 MW, the plant generates its own green electricity and feeds excess energy into the grid. This allows us to utilize waste materials such as sawdust, bark, and wood chips as energy sources. The result is a nearly closed-loop system that minimizes CO₂ emissions and maximizes energy efficiency. Or, to put it another way: For us, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a reality we live by.

Prices and Custom Quotes

Our specific prices are always based on wood species, wood thickness, dimensions, and the degree of finishing. Large orders can be optimized economically through volume discounts. For greater transparency, please feel free to contact us, as we provide customized quotes on a project-by-project basis. A beam with specific dimensions is priced just as precisely as a larger batch of sawn lumber for a construction project. Upon request, we’ll be happy to provide you with a detailed quote that clearly outlines all services.
