History<\/h4>\n

In 1923, Jacob Friedrich Werz founded a small gluten glue production facility in Goppingen to supply local joiners and plywood companies.
In 1941, he took over the operation of a previous glue customer in Oberstenfeld, Ludwigsburg district, who produced deformed plywood (chair seats and backrests, plywood housing for the German radio and phono industry, etc.).<\/p>\n

\n From the mid-1950s, a completely new process was developed, the later patented WERZALIT process, in which ready-made tables, serving trays, wall panelling panels and the like were made from finely machined wood, synthetic resin glue and additives. Parts are manufactured \u2013 the birth of WERZALIT wood-based materials.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

WERZALIT gradually becomes the material name, the name of the process and the company name. The production know-how of the WERZALIT process is underpinned by a large number of patents. Over time, the process is also licensed at home and abroad.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Wood for sustainable products<\/h4>\n

The most important raw material for products from WERZALIT is wood. In Germany, Industrial Wood is used that comes from forests within a narrow radius of less than 100 Kilometers. The environmental managers in the house make sure that the wood suppliers are exclusively PEFC or FSC certified Forestries.<\/p>\n

PEFC \u2013 \u2018Program for the Endorsement of Forest Certification Schemes\u2019. (Forest Certification Scheme Recognition Program) is an independent non-governmental non-profit Organization. It works worldwide for the evaluation and mutual recognition of national forest certification programs. FSC \u2013 Forest Stewardship Counsil is also a world wide non profit organization like PEFC<\/p>\n

\n Economic, Ecological and Social Standards<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

Forest certification can only be successful if PEFC certified wood reaches the end user. This also requires certification of the timber industry in the product chain. WERZALIT has been cooperating with certified forest companies for years. The primary objective of PEFC is the documentation and improvement of sustainable forest management with regard to economic, ecological and social standards.<\/p>\n

\n Safety for Responsible Action<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

The PEFC certificate gives buyers of wood products the assurance that manufacturers are promoting the sustainable management of forests through their actions. It identifies WERZALIT as a responsible and ecologically acting manufacturer.<\/p><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
