70 year Schreinerei Entholzner
In 1954, Hans Entholzner became self-employed with a carpentry workshop in Kirchdorf am Inn. His son Hans-Peter, born in 1959, was involved from the very beginning and assisted his father. On September 1, 1975, he officially joined the company as one of three employees and as its first apprentice. In August 1977, he completed his journeyman’s examination with excellent results. This was followed by advanced training to become a master carpenter at the Kerschensteiner School in Munich. In the summer of 1983, he graduated as Bavaria’s top master craftsman of the year and was awarded the gold medal by the then Minister-President Franz Josef Strauss. He then successfully completed advanced studies in business management and interior construction design at the Master School for Carpenters in Munich. During this time, the now legendary tool case for carpenters—the MOBILO-BOX—was created. To date, more than 50,000 units of this multi-award-winning toolbox have left the workshop in Kirchdorf. In 1998, we received the Bavarian State Prize for the Mobilo-Box.
In 1989, the carpentry workshop was expanded to 5,000 m² in the local industrial area. In 1998, the official handover of the business to his son Hans-Peter took place. Until his death in February 2014, company founder Hans Entholzner continued to work in the carpentry shop and played a key role in the development of the visionary drawer tool case MOBOXO, for which we were also awarded the Bavarian State Prize.
In the fall of 2013, he was still able to witness the master craftsman’s piece of his grandson Christoph, who—like his father—also completed his master craftsman’s examination at the Kerschensteiner School in Munich.
Today, the company employs 6 master craftsmen, 8 journeymen, and 3 apprentices. The business is widely known for the highest quality in the fields of windows, façades, doors, and interior construction.
