Our values – The foundation of HOLTEC
For over 50 years, HOLTEC has stood for quality, innovation and reliability in the wood industry. What began as a small, family-run business has grown into one of Europe's leading suppliers of sawmill technology. Despite this growth, we have remained true to our principles, which we see as the foundation of our success.
Our vision remains unchanged: we believe that sustainable economic success is only possible when business is conducted with integrity. For us, this means taking responsibility, acting reliably and building long-term partnerships. We don't see ourselves as a one-time supplier, but as a dependable partner who works closely with customers to develop the best solutions.
Trust plays a central role in this. It is a trust we have earned over decades through transparent actions, clear agreements and technical excellence. Our word counts - and our customers value that. Many of our partnerships have lasted for decades and reflect a collaboration based on mutual respect and reliability.
At the same time, we are convinced that tradition and innovation are not contradictions but complement each other. We are proud of our roots - close cooperation with small and medium-sized sawmills has shaped us and helped us grow. Today, we are a trusted partner to international market leaders, without forgetting where we come from. This dynamic between consistency and progress is what drives us.
We continuously invest in new technologies and actively shape the future of the industry. Whether it is Edge.AI, the automation of complex processes, or the concept of the sawmill of the future - our goal is to provide our customers with tomorrow's solutions today. In doing so, we remain true to our core principles: solutions must be well thought-out, durable, efficient and sustainable.
Responsibility is more than just a buzzword for us. It means responsibility for our employees, whose knowledge and commitment form the foundation of our success. Responsibility for our customers, whose goals we make our own. And responsibility for the resource wood and the environment, which we protect through intelligent, resource-efficient concepts.
At HOLTEC we combine the integrity of a reputable company with the pioneering spirit of a technology leader. Our goal is to develop customized solutions together with our customers - solutions that create value and secure the future.
The HOLTEC way
"Succeeding together - because we speak our customers' language.“
The HOLTEC way reflects our mindset, our identity and what drives us in our daily work. It is about mutual trust, open communication and close collaboration with our customers. Only when we truly understand our partners' goals and challenges we can develop customised solutions that lead to long-term success.
We do more. Every day.
Our actions are guided by a simple principle: doing more - for our customers, employees and partners. With greater commitment, flexibility, a strong power of innovation, and humanity, we create sustainable solutions and build genuine partnerships with everyone involved.
Our customers in focus
Our customers are at the heart of everything we do. We understand their needs by actively listening - because the best ideas come directly from real-world practice. This ongoing dialogue has made us a trusted partner to market leaders in the sawmill and wood-based materials industries. Holtec technology powers the largest and fastest systems - always with the same goal: higher performance, reduced wear and lower operating costs.
Excellence as our standard
In everything we do, we strive to be the best. With more than 350 plant engineering projects in log handling we offer our customers maximum flexibility across all dimensions - from small to large diameters, from long to short logs. This experience makes us the leader in log handling in Europe.
We also set benchmarks in package crosscut saws. With over 13,000 machines sold, we are the undisputed world market leader.
Tradition and vision
As a family-owned company in its second generation, we combine tradition with a strong capacity for innovation. Our roots give us stability, while our vision drives us forward.
Reliability, integrity and trustworthiness have guided our actions for more than 50 years. On this foundation, we build long-term, trusted partnerships with our customers, suppliers and employees. With passion and technical expertise we develop solutions that set standards - today and in the future.
Comprehensive expertise - from regional sawmill to global leader
Our roots lie in close cooperation with small and medium-sized sawmills - they made us who we are and we have never forgotten that. Today, large-scale projects with international market leaders are an important part of our success, but they are not our sole focus.
We provide our full range of products and services to companies of every size - from regional sawmills to global leaders. For us, the decisive factor is not the scale of the project, but the ambition to develop the best solution together. Let us build a successful future together.
