FROM TRADITION
The name Binder stands for tradition awareness and innovation in the wood industry. Franz Binder senior turned his passion for wood into a profession in the 1950s and founded a sawmill business in the Zillertal.
Even today, the Binder family stands behind the brand name binderholz. Passion for the sustainable raw material wood still drives the family and the employees of binderholz today.

OUR WOOD SPECIES
We use exclusively European wood from sustainable forestry. Wood species such as spruce, fir, Douglas fir and pine have individual properties that distinguish them for various applications.
SUSTAINABILITY
The wood for our products comes from sustainable, European forestry. We meet the strict PEFC standards – from the raw materials to the finished product in the building supplies store. With our subsidiary TTW Waldpflege we are already active in the forest. We are committed to the conservation of timber and to the preservation of native forests.
And that is not all. The use of wood as a building material is a contribution to climate protection. This is because solid wood products store CO2 previously extracted from the atmosphere, for decades. At the same time, conventional building materials are being replaced, for which fossil fuels would otherwise be used in production.
Working with wood is therefore active climate protection.
Zero Waste
The conscious handling of the raw material wood is particularly important to us. In addition to our sawn timber and further processed products, 100% of the by-products of sawing are also used. Wood chips, wood shavings and sawdust are turned into biofuels, pallet blocks and pallets. And the bark is used as an energy source in our company's own heating centres.
Completely environmentally friendly. And total value utilisation according to the zero-waste principle.
NATURAL PRODUCT
Wood thrives on numerous individual characteristics that reflect its organic origin. Some distinctive features for the natural product wood are:
