Pillar · Timber Logistics

Timber is our root.

Since 1992 we have been moving sawn timber, panel products and round wood from overseas to the DACH plant ramp. 34 years of specialising in a living material — no one copies that overnight.

Overseas.

Sawn timber, panel products and round wood begin their journey thousands of kilometres away — mostly in Finland, Sweden, the Baltics or North America. We know the shippers, the carriers and the typical stowage issues.

Why Binder for timber

Specialist knowledge you can't replace with hourly rates.

Timber does not forgive routine. We know the pitfalls — stowage behaviour, moisture, damage patterns, purity by grade. It is precisely this knowledge that sets us apart from any ordinary forwarder.

Material expertise

Sawn timber, panels, parquet, round wood — each type has its own requirements for stowage, ventilation and stacking. Our crews are trained for exactly that.
