Boogaerdt Hout

What Boogaerdt Hout does

Boogaerdt Hout is a Netherlands-based wood trading and processing company operating since 1741 as a subsidiary of the Koninklijke Boogaerdt groep. The company sources, imports, and processes a broad portfolio of wood species — including Accoya, Accoya Color, Lariks Hollands Hout (its registered trademark for Dutch Larch), Oregon Pine, Azobé, and Thermo Fraké — and converts them into finished wood applications such as facade cladding, window and door frames, bridges, decking, and civil/structural components under its Forestlines® product line. In-house manufacturing capability spans a roundwood sawmill (rondhoutzagerij), four-sided machining and planing operations (schaafbewerkingen), finger jointing and lamination, and a suite of wood treatments including film-forming and non-film-forming paint systems, AC stain, fire-retardant treatment, and the Shou Sugi Ban / Marugame charring technique delivered in partnership with Zwarthout.

The business operates as a B2B specialist supplier targeting professional wood processors, building materials traders, construction companies, and government/municipal clients. Sales are conducted through direct specialist consultation (phone, email, WhatsApp Business) with quote-based pricing determined per project by wood type, volume, processing, and treatment specifications; multi-year contracts are referenced in the pricing model. The company holds FSC and PEFC chain-of-custody certifications as well as CE marking for construction products, positioning it for public-procurement and sustainability-driven tenders.

Customer evidence spans at least 13 named logos across government (Rijkswaterstaat, Gemeente Diemen), retail (Lidl Nederland, Stiho), construction (Van den Oudenrijn, SBB, Den Hoed Aannemers, BMN Nijverdal), real estate (EarthY Invest, Van Bergen Kolpa Architecten), healthcare (Macadam BV), education (WUR Wageningen), and hospitality (Trompetty). Documented projects include CO2-neutral retail facades, Accoya-clad university buildings, wooden drawbridges, and pedestrian bridges in Azobé, with quantified carbon-capture outcomes used as project marketing. The firm employs 11-50 people, is privately held under family ownership, has no disclosed funding or M&A activity, and serves primarily the Dutch market with documented project work in Germany and multilingual (NL/EN/FR/DE) digital presence indicating modest Western European expansion intent.
