Dafür stehen wir
Appreciation, Openness, and Dedication Represent Our Values!
We highly value partnership-based and trustworthy collaboration at eye level – both within our company and in dealing with customers, partners, suppliers, and service providers.
Our openness and trust go far beyond what many expect in a business context. We are deeply convinced that a partnership without trust and profound openness cannot last and cannot withstand difficult situations.
Our dedication with a passion for timber and construction, as well as our closeness to craftsmen and specialist retailers, continuously enables us to develop innovative products, some with international patents, all aimed at making life as easy and effective as possible for professionals.
Ecological and Economic Responsibility
We understand this as protecting the environment and its resources. Over 10 years ago, we built the largest photovoltaic system in our region at the time (about the size of a soccer field) with an annual capacity of 300,000 kWh—enough to supply around 85 households, which is significantly more than our own company’s energy consumption.
Given the emissions associated with steel processing from iron ore, we recognized early on the need to counterbalance these unavoidable emissions. Our photovoltaic system is one measure to reduce our overall environmental impact. Additionally, we launched the GreenLine Series 10 years ago, featuring products with optimized production processes that have saved over 7,000 tons of CO2—equivalent to the yearly energy needs of 1,000 citizens—while maintaining similar structural performance.
This is not only ecologically sensible but also economically beneficial for all involved, reducing costs including transport expenses not even accounted for here.
Quality and Safety—We Stand for That Too!
The CE marking on GH timber connectors is your guarantee for safe and certified products that comply with building regulations throughout Europe, providing additional legal certainty. All our modern production facilities are located in Germany and certified according to ISO 9001:2008, allowing us to manufacture flexibly and to high standards.
Almost our entire range of GH timber connectors comes with national and international approvals, making them applicable throughout the EU.
Compliance
Corporate responsibility and prevention are the core of our compliance principles. Combined with the self-commitment of our employees and effective monitoring mechanisms, we foster a culture of trust that ensures lawful and responsible conduct. At the same time, this helps us to avoid risks, corruption, and conflicts of interest.
Tolerance and Diversity
This includes recognizing the performance and social skills of our employees, regardless of their background, religion, gender, disability, or other characteristics. We consistently use gender-neutral terms like “employee,” “customer,” and “supplier.”
Confidentiality, Ideas, and Patents
Our innovative products are a cornerstone of our company, helping to strengthen our customers' competitiveness. We depend on idea contributors, user feedback, and customer input to keep the cycle of innovation alive. We firmly believe that everyone should benefit from these successes and that confidentiality regarding ideas—even those that don’t reach mass production—must always be respected.
