Netz-Haut

What Netz-Haut does

Netz-Haut GmbH is a Würzburg-based German B2B provider of web development and managed hosting services, serving enterprise, public-sector, and mid-market clients across Germany. The company implements and operates websites and digital commerce platforms on four core stacks: TYPO3 (enterprise CMS), CraftCMS (mid-market CMS), Shopware (DACH-leading e-commerce), and Magento (global e-commerce). Its customer roster includes Audi After Sales, DB Museum, DB Energie, Universitätsklinikum Würzburg, IHK Würzburg-Schweinfurt, Städel-Museum, HEINZ-GLAS, EDEKA Foodservice, and Stadtwerke Aalen, indicating a track record with both large regulated corporates and public-sector / chamber-of-commerce institutions. The firm also operates as a whitelabel technical backend for advertising and marketing agencies, which deliver client-facing relationships while Netz-Haut executes the engineering work.

The firm's differentiating infrastructure asset is NH-Cloud, a proprietary managed-hosting platform running on owned physical hardware that the company has continuously operated since 2003, with data center presence in Würzburg, Nürnberg, and Munich. This in-jurisdiction, owned-hardware approach positions NH-Cloud as a GDPR-aligned alternative to hyperscaler or commodity resold hosting, and the firm has added BFSG/WCAG accessibility-compliance capability to align with German regulatory procurement requirements. The integrated development-plus-hosting model is the technical architecture through which the firm seeks to create lock-in, with clients' production CMS and commerce environments running on infrastructure the company both built and operates.

Commercially, the company is owner-operated under managing directors Michael Daut and Kai Neugebauer, with a stated team of approximately 10. Revenue is generated through project-based web development engagements and recurring managed-hosting contracts, with the whitelabel agency channel functioning as a non-direct distribution layer. No revenue, funding, M&A, or leadership-change disclosures are available in the input, and no AI/ML capability is referenced across the documented scope.
