What müllerblaustein HolzBauWerke does

müllerblaustein HolzBauWerke GmbH is a German specialist timber construction company founded in 1945 and headquartered in Blaustein, Baden-Württemberg. Operating as a subsidiary of the Geiger Gruppe, the company delivers engineered timber buildings (Ingenieurholzbau) across the full construction value chain — from specialist consulting and BIM-based planning through prefabrication to turnkey handover as Generalunternehmer or Totalunternehmer. Core technical capabilities span four construction methods: Holzelementbau (2D/3D timber element prefabrication), Holzhybridbau (timber combined with concrete/steel), Holzmodulbau (fully prefabricated room modules), and Ingenieurholzbau (engineered load-bearing timber structures including roof trusses and sports-hall spans). The company employs approximately 100 first-class skilled workers and has processed a cumulative 275,000 m³ of timber since founding.

The business model is project-based B2B construction services, with no public pricing. Revenue is generated through competitive public-sector tenders and negotiated private commercial contracts, primarily as a main contractor assuming full project delivery risk. The customer base is concentrated in German municipalities, educational institutions (primary/secondary schools, kindergartens), sports facilities (gymnasiums, multi-purpose halls), commercial and industrial clients (offices, production halls), and a growing residential segment (multi-story housing). Geographic reach covers southern Germany — Baden-Württemberg, Bayern, and Hessen — with the bulk of executed and in-realization projects in Baden-Württemberg.

Distribution is exclusively direct field sales led by Head of Sales Dominik Wowra, supported by an integrated engineering ecosystem within the Geiger Gruppe (Geiger Holzsystembau Wangen, Geiger Hoch-Tiefbau) and external partners (eins Plan GmbH for structural/MEP engineering, schlaich bergermann partner for complex fire safety, TUM.wood for R&D). The company has accumulated recognized design credentials including German Design Award 2025 and 2026, ICONIC Award 2024, iF Design Award 2025, and Holzbaupreis Baden-Württemberg 2024, and holds Top-Ausbilder recognition 2024–2026. Sustainability credentials include DGNB Platinum and Gold certifications on its own administrative building, with projects routinely delivered to Passivhaus, KfW-40, DGNB, and QNG standards.
