The building material of the future is wood - a sustainable material that meets all design and high-tech demands and is at the same time one of the oldest materials in our history.In the Carinthian town of Sachsenburg, where the timber industry has shaped the area's people and economy for centuries, Jakob Hasslacher established a pulp mill in 1901. Now, 120 years later, the Hasslacher Group is one of Europe's largest timber businesses, selling and distributing its innovative products for wooden construction all around the world. The success of this family business, which is now operated by the fourth generation, rests on the enthusiasm for the cycle of forest and material and on the unceasing pioneer spirit of the people who run the company.This 120-year history is simultaneously filled with surprising developments and twists, personal fates, and exceptional values, imbedded in the history of the late Habsburg Monarchy and in the history of Austria.
