Both shared a love for the forest and the courage to build something new. <br \/>As a sawmill, HIT Holz initially only produced sawn timber. <br \/>The idea of making full use of a tree&#8217;s trunk was already in place at that time. And, step by step, it became reality: in 2006, the pair set up a pallet production. Between 2010 and 2014 this was followed by investments in further sawmill lines, dryers and production facilities for blocks, briquettes, nails and pallets. <br \/>In 2016, HIT Holz took over the neighbouring pellet plant from <br \/>the German Pellets insolvency.<\/p><p>Until 2018, HIT Holz was managed by its founders G\u00fcnther Hillmer and Karlheinz Lippmann and taken over as part of the succession strategy by ESSVP IV Funds, advised by Orlando Management. In 2020, the previous lenders Deutsche Bank and Orchard Global Asset Management joined HIT Holz as majority owners. In the three years since the takeover, fundamental courses have been charted: specific investments have been made in the company, its equipment, its structure and processes, establishing HIT Holz so it is fit for the future.<\/p><p>In 2022, the company was taken over by Mercer International. As part of a strong group, the company benefits from synergies in the areas of sales, purchasing and logistics, among others. This will further strengthen the location in the short and long term. The future viability of the location and the associated job security will also be further stabilised by the investments planned by Mercer.\u00a0<\/p><p>At the end of 2022, the first step in the integration into the group was the change of name to Mercer Torgau.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div data-dce-background-image-url=\"https:\/\/www.mercer-torgau.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/HIT-HOLZ_alt_quadrat.jpg\" class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b5dfa66\" data-id=\"b5dfa66\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-43a0327 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"43a0327\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\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<section data-dce-background-image-url=\"https:\/\/www.mercer-torgau.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/LL211006HitHolz8077_kleinX.jpg\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-277ed92 elementor-section-height-min-height elementor-section-items-stretch elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"277ed92\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-ad0708a\" data-id=\"ad0708a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div data-dce-background-color=\"#FFFFFFE3\" class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-ac932a4\" data-id=\"ac932a4\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-df7f7fc elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"df7f7fc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ae609d3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ae609d3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">By your side<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c2dcdac elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c2dcdac\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">Our mission statement<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-63d96cb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"63d96cb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Mercer Torgau stands for diversity, expertise and sustainability. <br \/>We use the different experiences and perspectives of our employees to further develop products and services.
