In 1790 our family of German emigrants started working with nature. With simple tools, they worked with trees from the forest to carve for themselves a life harmonious with the beautiful world around them.

The first log homes were built in Canada. We built our own home in a simple, practical fashion, four walls with a post in the middle.

This large room was our center for family living. As many as 10 people lived in this area, which served as cooking, relaxation and sleeping quarters.

Grandpa had the idea to bring this natural form of living to the rest of the world.  

Soon the family began to produce log homes for other families and a thriving business was birthed.  

The company grew its way back across the Atlantic to begin producing in Finland and since 1997 we´ve also a mill in Estonia, certified under ISO 9001:2000

We’ve kept the traditions of our forefathers alive and are happy to share them with you today!

Many thanks for your interest in our products and service.
