About KS Schlüter
KS Schlüter Im- & Export GmbH was founded in 1997 by shareholders who had already been active in the timber industry for over 20 years, and has been based in Riede near Bremen ever since. The company imports sawn timber and planed products, among others from West Africa, Central and South America and South-East Asia, and exports domestic and tropical hardwoods, both sawn and planed as well as further processed. In the company's own production, sawn timber is planed and cut to length to customer specification; delivery is made in customer-specific dimensions and finishes. The product portfolio includes, among others, tongue-and-groove horse stable boards, pointed stakes, garden sleepers, excavator mats, sheet piling boards, decking boards as well as bench slats and planed products. Thanks to classic warehousing, short delivery times can be offered all year round. Imports are carried out in accordance with EUTR directives, and the company has been FSC-certified for many years.
