The timber of Holz100 system is harvested when the sap levels in the trees are at its lowest; influenced by the gravitational pull of the moon cycle. A stable moisture content is achieved by allowing the timber to drain vertically and drying naturally for at least 1-4 years. This drying cycle builds a muscle memory in the cellulose fibres of the timbre, thereby producing lumber that is more stable and less prone to cracking and splintering over time. The result is a controlled indoor climate in Holz100 homes. Holz100 is a breathable building system that is 100% sustainable.

An old wooden chimney made a huge impression by our inventor Dr. Erwin Thoma during childhood. This strange object was located in a 400 year old farmhouse in Austrian alps and belonged to a friends of his that farmed this mountain side. The charred wooden chimney started above an open fireplace at the main floor of the house built form wooden beams. The black chimney flue made from larch wood boards went through the ceiling, the 2 bedrooms upstairs passing through and beyond the shingled roof. The reason was that the particular larch trees which were used to build it were cut at a very specific time according to the phase of the moon. He found this very intriguing and practical at the same time. Luthiers, who had no advanced technology at their disposal, were able to make spruce timber a 100 times more expensive than gold.
