Our Story

From a 4-hectare experiment to approx. 255 hectares in 3 countries

In 2009 we stood in front of a Paulownia seedling for the first time. A tree that grows in one year what others need ten for. Whose wood is traded worldwide as premium timber. What began as an experiment on 4 hectares is today the largest private Paulownia operation in Southeast Europe.

Kosovo, North Macedonia, Croatia — three countries, one quality standard. Every tree is cared for, documented and assigned to its owner.
