Vision/Mission

The Klausner Group achieved its worldwide productivity leadership and optimum value creation

1. by consistently concentrating on its core business:
The Klausner works produce sawn and planed timber. For this reason, our production process centres round sawing, drying and planing.

2. by consistently concentrating on export business:
Ever since the start of production at Klausner Holz Thuringia in 1992, Klausner has been concentrating on export business. The Group’s current export ratio is 80%. Its own marketing team, positioned in the various target countries, is constantly opening up new markets and effecting new business contacts.

3. by taking maximum advantage of the globalisation process:
The ongoing globalisation process and the resulting opening of the markets made it possible for Klausner to sell successfully throughout the world, mostly in the form of standardised mass products. Klausner products are used mainly in the building and packing industries.

4. by building sawmills to Klausner quality standards:
Our newly developed sawmill type has four principal features:

• a conversion capacity of over 1 million solid cubic metres per year
• use of up-to-the-minute technologies
• integration of a planing mill
• modular construction enabling capacity to be expanded while the production process is in operation

5. by setting up wood clusters:
The establishment of other wood companies in the immediate vicinity of the Klausner sawmills leads to the formation of what are known as “wood clusters”. These have the advantage of short transport routes. A great deal of the value creation process with wood as raw material is realised by the existence of wood-processing companies in one and the same place.
