Christian Hess - Holzbau Hess

As raw material is utilised to its maximum potential with minimal off-cuts, vast potential for structural design is made possible.

The Company’s timber construction offers a competitive alternative to steel construction with its use of specialised CNC cutting machinery, as it enables the time spent on each project to be swifter and, thus, more cost effective; and it enhances the visual artistry of the finished product.

Holzbau Carpentry Hess CC designs and constructs for building projects of all scopes, sizes and budgets.  The Company’s carpentry and construction capabilities provide its clients with practical, beautiful interiors and exteriors for inspired working and living spaces.

Although we are based and work predominantly in Namibia, we also implement projects across borders throughout the SADC region and Europe.
