Precision with passion
with the most modern sawmill technology
Bark, chips, lumber – we use the entire log.
Using modern technology, we process approximately 20,000 m³ of high-quality hardwood logs from sustainably managed German forests annually. Each log is carefully cut to length, peeled and sawn into lumber. Then afterwards the lumber is dried, edged and graded according to strict quality standards.
Craftsmanship and high-tech go hand in hand: Modern machines make work easier and experienced employees process each piece of wood with care and respect for the precious raw material wood.
Follow a log from the log yard to the high-quality lumber!
Delivery & Capping System
State and private forestry operations have been supplying us with their hardwood logs for generations. Regional haulage companies take care of delivery.
On our log cutting station the logs are cut to standard lengths. Excess or defective log ends are cut off and sold as firewood.

Debarking
At the debarking station, the bark is taken off the logs. It is suitable for energy production, garden design, or composting. We use the bark to heat our own drying facility, for example.

Lumber: Sawing with precision
Here, you’ll find high-tech and a job with a gaming factor. The log is measured and optimally cut with minimal loss using laser and computer control. The modern bandsaw is controlled from the operator’s cabin, moving back and forth while cutting at a 17% incline. Operating in one shift, it produces approximately 20,000 fm per year.
The first cut of each log is processed into wood chips and sawdust, sold for various requirements.

Drying with sense
The whole drying process of our lumber needs time and patience. The fresh lumber is accurately put on sticks, covered with roofs and carefully dried in the fresh air on our extensive outdoor area – all without additional energy input – followed by computer controlled kiln drying process. With experience and constant control we guarantee an even moisture content of 8-10%. Our eleven kiln chambers do have a total capacity of about 1.000 m³.
The heat for our drying chambers is 100% supplied by our heating plant, which is powered by bark mulch and wood chips. With this regenerative energy supply, we contribute to a sustainable circular economy with very short transport distances.

Final Edges and Lengths
We developed our edging line and beveling system in collaboration with a machine and equipment manufacturer. We knew what we wanted, and so the engineers’ solid expertise and our experience created a forward-looking, largely automated sawing and edging system that cuts the largest possible lengths and widths from the kiln dried unedged boards. Lasers and computer technology do support the operators in their work. The cut of edges are cut to stove length and sold as high-class firewood. The sawdust also finds its way to the market after being pressed to wood briquettes.

Quality grading
Our employees carefully check the quality of the finished board. AA, Cabinet, Rustikal I or II or perhaps Antik? Appropriate features can be recognized and sorted in a matter of seconds. This personal commitment gives our customers the assurance that the desired grade meets the quality requirement. Our logo in different colors makes it easier to identify the items in the warehouse.

By-products
Where there’s sawing, there’s sawdust, and not just that: We use 100% of the delivered logs. Our sawmill by-products: firewood, wood chips, sawdust, bark mulch can be used for several requirements and to find their different markets. In addition to that, we press very heat-efficient fire briquettes from dried sawdust in our own facility.
