More and more large buildings are being built with timber as a renewable building material. Timbatec is a leading, innovative company in this growing future market. We construct multi-story buildings, industrial buildings and bridges in timber. And we develop modern timber construction products according to individual requirements.
278 students of the Bern University of Applied Sciences, Architecture, Wood and Civil Engineering were able to receive their diplomas on 25 October 2019. We congratulate our interns Iro Nui, Patrik Javet and Joel Hächler on their successful graduation. We especially congratulate Joel Hächler on the best Bachelor thesis.
Where waste was once dumped on the outskirts of Bern, a new Holliger quarter with 350 apartments is now being built. A timber building wins the architectural. Timbatec congratulates FritschiBeis Architektur on the winning project "Here comes the sun".
Switzerland's 2019 elections to the National Council will go down in history as the climate elections. A springboard for wood as a building material? Absolutely! Anyone who wants to contribute to climate protection is now building with timber. Wood stores CO2 in the long term and has an excellent climate balance - on the other hand, the cement industry is one of the biggest climate sinners.
During the opening ceremony of the wood fair an independent jury awarded the wood innovation price. Timber Structures 3.0 wins the silver medal. Timbatec congratulates on this huge success.
Where once stood a reputable factory for locomotives now arises a new inner-city borough. The first of its buildings will be executed in timber and is named “Crocodile”. Covering around 30,000 square meters of floor space, it definitely will be one of the largest nationwide. Therefore Timbatec is working with Building Information Modelling (BIM) throughout the entire project.
The offices in Zurich have become too small for our growing teams and projects. That's why we have a new address: You can find at Ausstellungsstrasse 36 - right next to Zurich Central Station. We would like to celebrate the relocation together with you.

Trade fairs offer visitors the best opportunity to make and maintain contacts. Exhibitors present innovations and the trends of the industry are discussed. May we discuss our visions with you at one of the upcoming events?
In the current year, we have already completed over 200 timber construction projects. We are pleased to give you an insight into our projects. We would like to share our enthusiasm for wood with you and wish you good reading.
Timber construction has developed very strongly in recent years. Today, ambitious, innovative and environmentally friendly projects are being built as timber constructions. More and more communities are using wood to construct new schools. The communities of Plateau de Diesse, Nobs and Courtételle are leading the way.
