Rubner Group sells Nordlam GmbH to Hasslacher Group

The Rubner corporate group has sold Nordlam GmbH and Abbundzentrum Nordlam GmbH (cutting centre), headquartered in Magdeburg, to the Hasslacher group. Approval by the competition authority is anticipated at the end of July, as the company says in the press release received by Lesprom Network.


Nordlam GmbH was founded by Rubner in 2000 as a greenfield project and has grown over a period of a few years to become one of the largest glulam producers in Europe. In the last few years, the site was extended by adding a cutting centre and a second glulam production line. Today around 200,000 m³ of glulam are produced in Magdeburg and sold all over the world.

Because with the Nordpan brand, Rubner is a leading manufacturer of single and solid wood panels made of spruce, pine and larch. Going forward, the intent is to extend market leadership in this area, which is why Rubner has decided to concentrate 100% on this area. To this end, forward-looking investments and decisions have already been made.

Hasslacher group plans to increase production at the Magdeburg site with the existing staff and to enlarge the product portfolio in the medium term.

Rubner group is one of the most important timber construction firms in Europe.

With its seven production sites in Austria, Germany, Slovenia and Russia, Hasslacher Group is one of the largest, leading timber industry enterprises in Europe and operates worldwide in more than 40 countries as an innovative manufacturer of solid timber materials, timber constructions and as a supplier of modern architectural timber structural engineering.
