Holzbau Kofler GmbH

Holzbau Kofler GmbH is a family-owned timber construction (Holzbau) company based in Maurach am Achensee in the Tirol region of Austria. Founded in 1953 by Max Kofler as the Zimmerei Kofler with its own sawmill, the business has grown into a specialist in high-quality, customised timber construction. Today it operates as a GmbH and is led by Ing. Andreas Kofler, representing the second generation of family ownership. The company describes itself as a family business in its second generation and emphasises quality, innovation and traditional craftsmanship. The firm's core services cover the full spectrum of timber building: wooden houses, extensions and additions, roof trusses, renovations, winter gardens, balconies, industrial and commercial buildings, and agricultural buildings. Holzbau Kofler positions itself as an expert for sophisticated timber construction in Tirol, combining modern technology and CNC precision manufacturing with long-standing craft experience. Its portfolio ranges from classic timber construction to modern, energy-efficient residential buildings. Holzbau Kofler is headquartered in the Achensee region, an area known for its natural scenery and quality of life. The company operates primarily in the Austrian market, with a focus on Tirol and the Achensee area. It maintains its own team of trained carpenters (Zimmerer), many of whom were trained directly within the company, and invests in regular training to keep skills current. The business is privately held by the Kofler family and is not listed on any stock exchange. In addition to construction, the company offers planning, 3-D animations, frame construction methods and precision CNC fabrication. Its stated values include sustainability, durability and the highest level of craftsmanship. The official website highlights completed reference projects and invites prospective employees to apply, reflecting an ongoing need for skilled workers in the timber construction trade.

Holzbau Kofler GmbH traces its origins to 1953, when Max Kofler founded the Zimmerei Kofler with its own sawmill in Maurach am Achensee, in the Tirol region of Austria. The Achensee area, known for its natural landscape and quality of life, provided the setting for a carpentry business that would grow over the following decades. In 1998, Ing. Andreas Kofler took over the management of the company, representing the second generation of family leadership. Under his direction, the business was converted into a GmbH (limited liability company) and invested in modern technology. The machine park was modernised and the company underwent a strategic realignment, focusing on the construction of high-quality, customised wooden houses. This shift from a traditional carpentry and sawmill operation to a specialist timber construction firm allowed Holzbau Kofler to expand its range of services. Today the company offers wooden houses, extensions and additions, roof trusses, renovations, winter gardens, balconies, industrial and commercial buildings, and agricultural buildings. It also provides planning, 3-D animations, frame construction methods and CNC precision fabrication. The company remains a family business in its second generation, privately held by the Kofler family. It emphasises sustainability, durability and craftsmanship, and maintains a team of trained carpenters, many of whom were educated directly within the firm. Regular training keeps the workforce up to date with current techniques. The official website presents the company as an expert for high-quality timber construction in Tirol and showcases completed reference projects.
