Wood is not only the heart of the ZIEGLER GROUP, but also an important natural material. Especially for Germany: almost one third of the country’s surface area is made up of forest and the timber industry employs over one million people. Not only they, but almost every human being has daily contact with wood. But before you can enjoy the finished terrace or desk, various preliminary stages are necessary. This is where we come in. Our wood division includes several companies. All of them ensure that our business customers receive first-class raw products. To this end, we manufacture cut-to-size products.

Ziegler Forstservice GmbH
It’s a long way to the timber harvest. And the forest has to be taken care of afterwards, too. Our colleagues from Forest Service master this task with flying colors and accompany the entire process: from tree felling to aftercare. Because a healthy forest means a future.
