The forest

The soul forest has been in the possession of the Thurn and Taxis family for many generations, whose sustainable management has always been focused on generations. The forest supplies the region with wood. Large-scale clearings do not occur, the forest floor is kept healthy, so strong, resistant woods grow there, which can last for hundreds of years when built.

The forest

Our products

We source our wood from the Seelenwald, our neighboring sawmill was named after the forest. 40,000 cubic meters leave our operation annually – they are a sought-after raw material for the construction industry throughout Europe. For special requirements, it quickly becomes known in the scene – this is a case for the Seelenwald. Due to the geographical location in Kanzach in Baden-Württemberg, the trees can be cut and transported in full length – in alpine areas, this is not possible due to the transport routes in steep terrain. This way we receive the tree trunks with a length of up to 20 or 25 meters. Our production facility cuts beams up to 15 meters long and planes up to 12 meters long. Primarily, we work with spruce, larch and Douglas fir.

Our passion

Wood is a wonderful material that enables sustainable and future-oriented construction. Our products are perfectly suited for the multi-story construction of wooden high-rise buildings. This construction method will shape the construction industry of the future. We are capable of producing large quantities of this special quality for Europe.

Our passion

Our vision is to make the construction industry more sustainable by using our quality wood to make multi-story timber construction more future-proof. Everything needed for multi-story timber construction grows in our forests.

Maximilian Martin

I come from a family business in the timber industry and initially studied business administration in Vienna. The Seelenwald sawmill was looking for a successor who should continue to run the business in the owners' interest – so I worked in the ongoing operation for a year to get to know it exactly, as well as to be able to establish relationships with suppliers and customers. Due to the consistent starting position and my education, it was possible to convince the bank so that I could start as the new owner and managing director of the sawmill and timber trading company at the age of 25.

The most important thing in such a company is the loyal male and female employees. I was able to take over the entire workforce and they all stayed - their loyalty and competence are essential success factors for us.

Equally important are our trusted relationships with the suppliers - forest owners bear a high risk and are constantly confronted with natural disasters. We are convinced that it is more rewarding in the long run to pay decent wood prices even when a lot of wood has to be sold quickly. We always stay on an equal footing and have the experience that we always receive the best quality delivered.
