About Starkholz
STARKHolz GmbH, based in Eberdingen near Stuttgart, was founded in 2016 and specializes in the planning, design and installation of wooden play equipment and creative playgrounds made of robinia and oak. Its service portfolio also includes the distribution of robinia timber (logs, edged and unedged sawn timber, palisades, squared timbers, construction timbers, laminated profiles), the construction of outdoor timber installations such as terraces, facades, pergolas, fences and street furniture, as well as custom built-in trampolines for public spaces. In addition, solid wood furniture is produced as one-off and custom pieces from European hardwoods and softwoods, including constructions with powder-coated steel components. Manufacturing takes place in the company's own workshop with its own woodturning and laser processing facilities; playground refurbishment rounds off the offering. Customers include municipalities, daycare centers, schools, outdoor pools, landscaping companies and private customers, predominantly in Baden-Württemberg.
