The HASSLACHER Group was awarded the recognition prize as part of the Styrian Timber Construction Award 2025 for its innovative office and administration building at the Preding site. The award ceremony took place during a festive ceremony at the Orpheum Graz. The new office building of HASSLACHER PREDING Holzindustrie GmbH convinced the jury with its successful combination of architecture, craftsmanship and sustainability.
The three-storey building impressively demonstrates the performance of modern timber construction systems and sets new standards for office buildings in terms of sustainable construction.
“This award is a great honour for us,” explains Christoph Kulterer, CEO and owner of the HASSLACHER Group. “With this project, we wanted to show what is possible with wood and our own timber construction products – from planning to industrial prefabrication and assembly. The building embodies our DNA: innovation, sustainability and perfect craftsmanship.” Christoph concluded.
From log to log house wall, from plank to roof truss, the HASSLACHER group supplies everything for cutting edge timber construction from a single source – with quality that can be relied on and like its founder Jakob Hasslacher practiced over 120 years ago. Together with its 2000 employees, the HASSLACHER group produces innovative products in the areas of sawn timber, profiled timber, glued laminated timber, cross laminated timber and structural finger jointed solid timber for the European and international market. True to our motto “From wood to wonders.”
