Jobs at Hackgut Winter
Overview of the various possibilities of working with wood in the Wintergroup!

20 years of winter - a family portrait

The foundation of Paletten Winter GmbH dates back to 1999, when the company began repairing pallets with a hammer and nail. While working in his second job as a driver at the Inzersdorf vegetable market, the trained industrial fitter Franz Winter came up with the idea of repairing damaged pallets. As the demand for this service continued to grow, he founded the sole proprietorship FW Großhandel Franz Winter.

Pallet repairs were carried out for some customers on a small scale and the company began trading in used pallets. The very next year, a production hall and an office wing were built on around 2,500m2 in the Hof industrial estate.

Thanks to his efforts to produce pallets quickly and to a high standard of quality, he scored points with his customers and quickly grew to become one of the largest pallet producers in Austria. In the course of increasing activities, Paletten Winter GmbH was founded in 2001.

The next structural expansion took place in 2004 with a new office building and assembly hall. To make more efficient use of the existing factory building, the company switched to two-shift operation. This was associated with a significant increase in production.

After the demand for rental pallets in the pallet industry steadily increased, Paletten Logistik Winter GmbH was founded in 2010. This was followed by the founding of Hackgut Winter GmbH in 2012. In the same year, after careful consideration to extend the life of pallets, the "Winter Möbel" brand was launched. Here, unique pieces of furniture are created from old pallets.

Under the name "Wintergroup", the three companies are not only strongly represented on the pallet market, but are also specialists in the production and sale of wood chips and various forestry products. Around 170 people are employed at the Hof site, making the company one of the largest employers in the region.
