We are at the beginning of a new era: the Wood Age.<\/h2>\n \n

Lightweight wood construction opens up new possibilities for production and is the game changer for mobility.<\/p>\n

Our wood hybrids weigh significantly less than steel or aluminum and can thus \u2013 depending on the application \u2013 reduce the CO\u2082 emissions of your products. At the same time, they exhibit mechanical properties and high rigidity that can keep up with the properties of plastics and metals. When executed correctly, they meet the highest fire protection requirements and do not splinter.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n

Wood hybrids are not only lightweight but also sustainable. Wood stores carbon during its use; compared to carbon fiber, CO\u2082 consumption drops by up to 45%.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Wood hybrids are about 25% lighter than steel. When you know how it works, wood effortlessly replaces carbon fiber, aluminum, fiberglass, and steel \u2013 and changes mobility from the ground up.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n

Where weight and material previously set limits, wood hybrids are opening up new spaces for design and function. Their natural fiber structure, combined with high-precision composite technologies, transforms components into masterpieces of lightness: strong enough to support, elegant enough to inspire \u2013 and surprising enough to exceed expectations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n

Wood Hybrids.
\r\nA whole new world.<\/h3>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

Wood hybrids open up a completely new world of design and application. Combining wood with other materials creates composite structures that utilize the best properties of each material: lightweight and stable, energy-efficient and flexibly adaptable.<\/p>\n

The components can be precisely shaped, are weather-resistant, and can be individually designed with different types of wood.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n

\n

Whether in automotive engineering, the railway industry, or energy-generating plants \u2013 wood hybrids are redefining the potential applications of wood.<\/p>\n

Our mission is to break down prejudices against wood: The wood we process meets fire, standard, and moisture requirements, does not splinter, and is lighter than many materials used to date. This makes wood the high-tech alternative of the future.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
