Become a trailblazer in the field of sustainable charging infrastructure solutions and mobility hubs.
Strategic Development Partner
As a strong partner in timber construction, we have a fully integrated supply chain. Starting with the harvesting of the timber, in-house structural and design engineering, component production and delivery to the assembly on site.
Quick & scalable
With an annual production volume of around 700,000 m³ in the Mass Timber (MT) segment, we are able to deliver 100,000 timber roofs of the type K:PortTM EV Charging Station Portishead per year.
With four charging columns, this corresponds to around 400,000 covered charging points per year.
Environmental declaration
In August 2021, the HASSLACHER Group obtained an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for its most important building products such as glulam, cross laminated timber and finger jointed structural timber.
An Environmental Product Declaration is a document in which the environmentally relevant properties of a specific product are presented in the form of neutral and objective data. These data cover, as far as possible, all the effects that the product may have on its environment. In the building sector, EPDs form an essential basis for professionals such as architects, planners or developers to be able to plan and evaluate buildings holistically. In addition, we have a PEFC certification for sustainable forestry and wood management for the respective product.
EnBW Tankstelle
Mainz | DE
[1] CO2 stored in the mass of wood used
[2] Calculated duration until the volume of wood used in Europe's forests has grown back.
EnBW Tankstelle
For the EnBW HyperNetz, the HASSLACHER group built two identical fast-charging parks in Lichtenau near Chemnitz and Nahetal near Mainz. The roof is approximately 24 x 12 m in size and consists of rafters, purlins and A-frames.
EnBW Tankstelle
The frames were completely pre-assembled in the factory, including cross laminated timber panels with screw-press bonding and approx. 1.5 m long, glued-in threaded rods to transfer the load from the cross beams. In addition, the steel parts of the column feet had to be pre-assembled with millimeter precision so that they could be installed on 16 individually cast bolts on the construction site. The cross members are block-glued from four individual CNC-machined beams.
Vivatro Charging Hub
St. Veit an der Glan | AT
[1] CO2 stored in the mass of wood used
[2] Calculated duration until the volume of wood used in Europe's forests has grown back.
Vivatro Charging Hub
The HASSLACHER group supplied systemized roofing for car, bus and truck charging stations for the Vivatro GmbH charging park in St. Veit an der Glan, Austria. A total of 139 m³ of glued laminated timber (spruce ) in visible quality were used in the project, which were produced at the Hermagor site and prefabricated including steel parts and fasteners.
Vivatro Charging Hub
The carport frame was also pre-assembled at the factory. This meant that the construction time on site was kept short: the carports were built within two weeks, while the bus port only took a week.
MER Spittal
Spittal an der Drau | AT
[1] CO2 stored in the mass of wood used
[2] Calculated duration until the volume of wood used in Europe's forests has grown back.
MER Spittal
For the MER e-charging station for cars in Spittal a. d. Drau, the HASSLACHER group produced 24 m³ of visible quality glued laminated timber (spruce) and pre-assembled the support frames. The rear area of the charging station was designed as a panel for longitudinal bracing. 5 m³ of visible quality glued laminated timber (spruce) were used, which were provided with the necessary joinery at the factory. The roof is topped off by photovoltaic cells from Sonnenkraft GmbH.
MER Spittal
The services provided by the HASSLACHER group included not only the manufacture of the wooden construction including PV elements, inverters and connection to the transformer station, but also the assembly, carried out by Holzbau Hofer GmbH. The electrical work was carried out by Vivatro GmbH.
K:Port™ EV Charging Station
Portishead | GB
[1] CO2 stored in the mass of wood used
[2] Calculated duration until the volume of wood used in Europe's forests has grown back.
Sustainable Design
In addition to the latest generation of rapid chargers and a sustainable wooden canopy, the EV charging station includes additional special features such as an integrated photovoltaic roofing system and a holistic planting concept that enables a sustainable drainage solution.
Robust and Durable
The wooden canopy of the charging station with four charging points is made of high-quality, weather-resistant larch glued laminated timber. The construction consists of a central support element with four cantilever arms connected to it, to which the secondary support structure in the form of a roof purlin support grid is anchored.
K:Port™ EV Charging Station

K:Port™ EV Charging Station
London | GB
[1] CO2 stored in the mass of wood used
[2] Calculated duration until the volume of wood used in Europe's forests has grown back.
Modular and scalable
In September 2021, the second K:Port™ EV Charging Station opened in London. The charging station offers space for eight vehicles at a time and has integrated battery storage as well as an intelligent energy management system.
Biophilic Design
The K:Port™ concept by British architecture firm Hewitt Studios derives from the Japanese term Komorebi, the dappled light that occurs when sunlight shines through the canopy of a tree. The essence of the tree is present throughout K:Port™, from the shape of the canopy itself as well as the wood from which the structure is made.
Shell EV Charging Hub
Project video
Shell EV Hub Fulham
London | GB
[1] CO2 stored in the mass of wood used
[2] Calculated duration until the volume of wood used in Europe's forests has grown back.
Re-Design
In the London borough of Fulham, an existing Shell service station has been converted into an Electric Vehicle (EV) Hub. The EV Hub is the first of its kind in the UK and has 10 covered charging points.
Wooden Canopy
For the sustainable wooden canopies, cross-laminated timber was used in addition to weather-resistant larch laminated timber. The cantilevered roofs are covered with photovoltaic panels.
Short Construction Period
The entire timber construction was assembled in just a few days, as the individual axis were prefabricated in the factory and transported to the construction site in their entirety.
