From Professional to Professional Since 1984
Hans Zellmer founded the company in 1984; for over 40 years, it has specialized in woodworking machinery and tools. Today, the second generation of the family runs the business: Stefan Zellmer is a master carpenter himself and specializes in large-scale machinery, while his brother Michael, a business professional, oversees the financial side of the operation—and the founder remains actively involved. This combination defines the company’s approach: advice on an equal footing, from people who have mastered the craft themselves. That is precisely what lies behind the motto “Professionals at Work.”
The exhibition in Seeshaupt: try things out instead of just looking at them
The retail store features a wide selection of products you can touch and try out, ranging from stationary machines to hand tools—and you can test many of them before you buy. Especially with tools that you can only truly evaluate in use, this lets you try out what works best for your job instead of ordering based on a spec sheet. And if you can’t make it to Seeshaupt, we’ll come to you: Zellmer will consult with you right in your workshop upon request, and larger machines are planned on-site anyway.

Buying Machinery and After-Sales Service
A machine is an investment in your business’s competitiveness—not just an off-the-shelf purchase. That’s why Zellmer starts with a consultation—at your location, if you prefer—to discuss the workpieces, materials, production volumes, available space, and budget. Based on this, we provide a recommendation, followed by planning, delivery, and commissioning, including training.
