Founded in Austria and managed from Vienna, we develop sophisticated solutions and high-tech products from the material of the future, wood, at seven production sites worldwide. At HS Timber Group, everything revolves around one thing: the CO2-binding raw material wood. We procure it from sustainably managed forests, we process it in an energy-self-sufficient manner into products with high regional added value, for example for the living space of the future, and we research it in cooperation with scientists, e.g. at the Vienna University of Technology. Handshake quality and innovative spirit have been our success factors for centuries.
