Specialty retailer since 1997
Sauter GmbH was founded in 1997 and has focused on woodworking tools and machinery from the very beginning. In 2001, the online store launched under the brand name sautershop, and in November 2021, the company moved to its current location on Arzbergerstraße in Herrsching. It is managed by Martin and Denise Sauter.
Instead of carrying a full product line, sautershop follows a clear focus: routing, sawing, drilling, clamping, and systematic workshop solutions. By limiting itself to four core areas, the company can go into great depth in each—for example, when it comes to router bits, it keeps several thousand variants in stock in all standard shank sizes, flush trim bit from profile, slot, and flush trim bit specialty router bits for furniture and interior construction.
Consulting and Product Line
Consultations are available by phone, email, or in the showroom—from a team in which many members have a background in carpentry or woodworking. You’ll get specific answers to specific questions: Which router is right for your workshop? Is it worth switching to a lifting table? How much safer does a sliding table saw become sliding table saw a safety system? In addition, there are video tutorials, detailed product descriptions, and instructions.
The online store features over 10,000 products in the categories of milling machines 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. The store 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. The majority of orders ship from the warehouse on the same day they are placed, and delivery is available worldwide; within Germany, standard shipping is free for orders of €150 or more.
