Huber & Sohn

What Huber & Sohn does

Huber & Sohn is a 100-year-old, third-generation family-owned German timber and construction manufacturer headquartered in Bachmehring, Eiselfing (Bavaria), operating from approximately 93,000 m² of production and office space split between its Bachmehring headquarters and Hafenham production facility. The company runs six integrated business divisions: Fenster (wood, wood-aluminum, plastic, and plastic-aluminum windows plus entrance doors), Holzhaus (custom solid-timber houses built with its proprietary Holzmassivwand system), Holzbau (multi-story timber construction, roof extensions, modular timber construction, and serial renovation), Schalungsbau (custom formwork for tunnels, power plants, wind channels, and special architectural projects), Holzverpackung (custom wooden packaging for industrial clients), and Konstruktionsvollholz / KVH (regional structural timber sourced from Alpine forests).

Production combines traditional carpentry with modern manufacturing technology, including CNC processing, automated wall production lines, and prefabrication capacity for roof and facade elements. The company holds an extensive certification stack (RAL for timber houses/wood windows/wood-aluminum windows/window installation, DIN ISO 9001:2021, PEFC 2026, TUM fire-retardant conformity, Meisterhaft 5 Stars) and has been certified climate-neutral since June 2021. Notable project references include formwork for Munich's Olympiastadion (1969), the BMW Museum (1971), and industrial packaging for Canon, MAN, and the Bundeswehr.

Huber & Sohn sells exclusively direct, with no reseller or distributor network. Distribution runs through on-site Fenster and Holzhaus showrooms at Bachmehring, a Holz-Musterhaus showroom in Poing, an enterprise sales force handling project quotations, website/phone/email/WhatsApp inquiry channels, and recurring Open House events. Pricing is fully quote-based and project-specific across all divisions. Customers span residential homeowners, commercial builders and developers, infrastructure and civil engineering contractors, industrial manufacturers/exporters, and regional builders and contractors — a horizontal segmentation approach that diversifies end-market exposure while tying revenue to project cadence rather than recurring contracts.
