The TATEKU Group
Investing for the future, building value-orientated
The TATEKU Group stands for responsible entrepreneurship and regenerative value chains in forestry and timber. Our goal is to actively help shape the transformation of the forestry and timber industry – economically viable and effective in the long term.
The name „TATEKU“, derived from the Japanese and meaning „to build something from the ground up“, summarises our self-image: we are rethinking entrepreneurial activity - with a focus on real, substantial development instead of speculative financial models.
Our commitment combines corporate responsibility with strategic alignment. We have an investment interest in the development of technological solutions along the value chain – from site-adapted forestry concepts and modular timber construction to the material utilisation of biogenic residues.
Innovation
Drivers of sustainable value creation
For the TATEKU Group, innovation is the key to the future of the forestry and timber industry. That is why we make targeted investments in research and development along the entire value chain - from climate-resilient reforestation to resource-efficient production. With our five focal points -
- Smart Planting
- Smart Forestry
- Smart Timber Products
- Smart Carbon Products
- Smart Industry
- we create solutions, which combine renewable raw materials with economic progress.
Smart TIMBER PRODUCTS
Building with a system
Under the term Smart Timber Products, the brand [HolzWerk³]
the high-performance construction method of 3D serial timber modular construction. What makes it special: a high degree of prefabrication based on digital planning using the natural raw material of timber for efficient, future-oriented construction from a single source. Another timber construction product is created at Thüringer Holzwerk Hermsdorf GmbH: custom construction solutions made from glulam and beams up to 50 m in length.
Smart Carbon Products
Green Carbon & Bioliquids
The TATEKU Group develops innovative technologies for the processing of biogenic residues, such as the processing of biochar in building constructions, which is managed by the subsidiary CR-Systems. In addition, we are interested in investments that focus on the material utilisation of pyrolysis. This produces green carbon and bioliquids for the construction sector, agriculture and the chemical industry. AI-supported processes enable resource-efficient applications and resource-conserving applications – for a climate-effective future in which carbon becomes a raw material.
OUR STRENGTHS
Technological innovation for a sustainable future
The TATEKU Group combines research and industry to develop pioneering technologies along the forestry and wood value chain. Sustainability, efficiency and industrial scalability take centre stage.
Research at the highest level
By working closely with leading research institutes, we develop technological innovations from a Technology Readiness Level 4, which increase efficiency and sustainability along the entire value chain.
ESG-orientated corporate governance
We focus on ecological, social and responsible business practices in order to promote sustainable value creation along the forestry and wood value chain. This focus ensures that our technologies are future-proof and resource-efficient.
Industrial scalability
Our technologies are not only innovative, but also tailored to the requirements of industrial applications. They guarantee efficient implementation and offer solutions that can be used on a large scale to achieve long-term sustainable goals.
Holistic value creation
We optimise the entire value chain - from forestry to wood processing - and create synergies for a sustainable future. This results in products and processes that are both ecologically and economically sound.
Partnerships for success
Every R&D project is realised in a network: at least one subsidiary, one research partner and TATEKU Innovation guarantee the highest quality and targeted results. This enables an effective combination of expertise and resources.
Sustainable technologies
With products such as green carbon, bioliquids and biogenic pyrolysis gas, we create alternatives to fossil raw materials and actively contribute to climate protection. Our innovations help to effectively overcome global challenges.
