For nearly 175 years, we have stood for exceptional expertise and specialised know-how. This is especially true for the procuring of speciality woods from all over the world and the excellent subsequent treatment we provide through our partners. We have worked successfully together with our customers in this way for decades.

The first steamboat, which went along the Dortmund-Ems canal towards Westphalia on 21 December 1898, was in transit to Krüger & Sohn with wood from Sweden. Subsequent treating of wood products was started early on.

The HKS product range, which today is under its 5th generation of family management, is unequalled.

At the end of 2004, HKS adapted itself to the latest market situation and set new trends in the product range by including solid wood floorboards. Additionally, in 2005 HKS took on the exclusive distribution of Chapel Parquet in Germany, Austria, France and Switzerland. This exclusive flooring is distinguished by the fact that it is produced with love and care, as well as a good deal of handiwork. Furthermore, every Chapel floor features a patented and extremely resistant surface.

We hold garden wood domain dear. Not only are established wood types offered, such as bangkirai, massaranduba, garapeira and red balau, but also exceptionally high-quality exclusive woods like ipe and cumaru.

Trade in glued wood constitutes is a further pillar in the product range. Whether as steps or kitchen worktops, HKS offers a wide range of semi-finished products. HKS considers itself to be a solution provider for business and industry clients and constantly seeks new, innovative products. Alongside the main sales territory in Germany, a large proportion of products are exported, predominantly to France, Switzerland, Austria, Poland and the Benelux countries.
