Timber products manufacturer scaling production automation and data standardization
Ante-Gruppe operates seven production facilities across Germany and Poland, processing sustainably-sourced wood into construction materials, pellets, and energy products. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward industrial automation (TIA Portal, STEP 7, SIMATIC S7, Profibus, PROFINET, PLC) paired with Power BI for visibility — a typical manufacturing setup. Hiring velocity is accelerating with 41 roles posted in the last 30 days, heavily skewed toward manufacturing and logistics floor roles, while active projects center on master data standardization and production optimization, suggesting the company is working to unify processes across its multi-site footprint.
Ante-Gruppe is one of the largest family-owned timber producers in Germany, operating facilities in Germany and Poland with over 1,400 employees. The company processes sustainably-sourced wood into engineered construction products (KVH, BSH, BSP), garden and building materials, wood pellets, and biomass for energy. All material is utilized—offcuts become pellets, bark is converted to fuel. The company reports binding over three million tonnes of CO2 annually through sustainable forestry practices. Operations span seven locations with active expansion and modernization projects underway.
