Overview

Timberhub operates a managed B2B marketplace that digitally connects manufacturers, construction companies and sawmills, and handles procurement, payments and transportation of timber materials. The Amsterdam-based startup was founded in March 2022 by Ion Sergis, Thomas Androutselis, Ioannis Androutselis and Dimitrios Pagkratis. Timberhub says its platform brings transparency on price, quality and availability, shortening lead times and improving predictability for construction projects. The company serves customers across 15 countries in Europe, ranging from small manufacturers to large construction firms. It is positioning timber as a lower‑carbon alternative in construction, citing that substituting wood for conventional materials can reduce emissions by 69% and that timber demand is expected to double over the next 10 years. Timberhub recently raised seed funding to support growth and expand its marketplace operations. Timberhub operates a digital marketplace that digitises the entire sawn timber procurement process, enabling manufacturers and contractors to purchase, transport, and finance raw materials. The platform provides tools for manufacturers to manage and grow their business and helps sawmills expand their buyer networks beyond traditional customers. Timberhub also enables buyers to verify the origin of timber traded on the platform, supporting ethical and sustainable purchasing. The startup works with customers and sawmills in Germany, Austria, Romania, Poland and Ukraine. Founded in 2022 and based in Amsterdam, the company raised €1.5M in a pre-Seed round. The team aims to modernise an offline, manual timber trading market and contribute to a greener future for manufacturing and construction.
