On this page, we’ll introduce you to this partner and its product offerings in detail.

Specialized retailer for woodworking since 1997
sauter GmbH was founded in 1997 and has specialized in woodworking tools and machines from the start. In 2001, the online shop launched under the sautershop brand; in November 2021, the company moved to its current location on Arzbergerstraße in Herrsching. The business is managed by CEOs Martin and Denise Sauter. Instead of a full range, sautershop follows a clear strategy: focusing on routing, sawing, drilling, clamping, and systemic workshop solutions. This deliberate specialization provides a deep product range in core areas, well-founded advice, and high certainty in selection and application.
Workshop-based advice
A defining feature of sautershop is its team. Advice is provided by phone, email, or in the showroom—by people with a background in the trades, not by an anonymous call center. Many team members have a background in carpentry or woodworking themselves and understand real-world workshop situations from their own experience. Instead of generic sales pitches, you’ll get specific answers to specific questions: Which table router is right for your workshop? Is it worth switching to a lifting table? How safe is a sliding table saw RUWI compared to a standard model? Video tutorials, detailed product descriptions, and instructions are also available.
Our Product Range: Routing, Sawing, Drilling, and Clamping
The online store offers over 10,000 products for professional woodworking. The core categories include routers and router tables, saws and sawing systems, drilling and clamping equipment, workshop and workbenches, CNC and digital workshop solutions, as well as dust extraction and workplace safety. It carries brands such as Festool, Mafell, Bosch, Makita, Freud, Kreg, Woodpeckers, Triton, Bessey, Shaper Tools, SawStop, and RUWI as well as other specialized manufacturers from Europe and North America. Sautershop is particularly well-known for its expertise in routing: several thousand router bits in all standard shank sizes, ranging from profile, slot, and flush cutters to specialty cutters, for both mass-production applications and custom solutions in furniture and interior design.
sauter's Own Brand – Practical Solutions
In addition to retail, sautershop develops its own products under its own brand, sauter, which are inspired by specific workshop needs. These include the OFL series of router lifts—among them the swiveling OFL 3.0, which has been described in the trade press as an innovative solution that enables precise height adjustment and convenient router bit changes. Also included are the FML-BR router motor lift with integrated dust extraction for clean work at router table, modular router table with HPL router table tops and insert panels, as well as clamping equipment and workbenches such as cabinet clamps, gluing clamps, and flexible workbench systems. These in-house products are known for their durability, precision, and long service life.
