Parquet magic

Since a few years, we are committing ourselves to a worthwhile social and charitable venture: We want to make Christmas a better experience by donating parquet to good causes! The campaign period is from November to February.

How it works.

Anybody can help conjure some Bauwerk Parquet into a great project. Aside from the usual contact details (name of the institution, contact person, address, email address and telephone number), we also require the dimensions of the required parquet floor as well as a convincing project outline.

Projects already realised

Thank you for all your submissions
The first projects, which were supported by our Christmas campaign "Parquet magic", have already been realised:

Victims of the floods, Ahrtal (Germany)

The Winners of Parquet Magic 2021
The lives of countless people in Ahrtal changed in just a few hours in mid-July 2021. Even a year later, you can still see and feel the results of the devastating flood. As a contribution to the reconstruction, Bauwerk Parquet donated a total of 150 square metres of real wood flooring for houses in great need of renovation.

The stories of these people are like those of Nadja and her eleven-year-old son Stefan who in the night of 14 and 15 July 2021 were surprised by huge masses of water. In their house, water stood three metres high, completely flooding the basement and the ground floor. "From that point, water destroyed or snatched away all of our furniture, the kitchen, the washing machine, the drier in the basement, all our valuable memories," Nadja explained, expressing her deep gratitude for the generous support she had received since the disaster.

Stiftung Waldheim, Appenzell (Switzerland)

The Winners of Parquet Magic 2020
The Waldheim Foundation provides a home to people with mental and physical disabilities. In spring 2021, a 180 m² hall at the Bellevue home was equipped with parquet, immediately creating an even cosier and more comfortable mood inside. Some of the residents provided active assistance in installing the new parquet.

"As you can see, the residents are extremely happy. This hall is the place where countless social activities take place throughout the year: there’s music, dancing, painting, building, celebrating, learning; simply put, it’s a magnet for life. And the new floor will bring even more fun. So, we’d like to express our enormous thanks to Bauwerk Parkett for this wonderful initiative."

Youth Residential Home Tartaruga by
Pro Juventute, Salzburg (Austria)

Social enterprise in child and youth welfare
In 2020, the renovation of the Tartaruga Salzburg residential community was supported with a donation of 400 m² of parquet flooring including skirting boards from Bauwerk Parkett, which will not only withstand the wear and tear, but above all bring another piece of comfort into the house. Children and adolescents have been cared for in the Pro Juventute house in Bergheimer Street since 1968. Since 1995, the facility has been run as a residential youth community for eight adolescents between the ages of 13 and 18. The extensive renovation project will improve the daily routines and the quality of living in the house.

Pfadihütte Beckenried (Switzerland)

In the Pfadihütte of Pfadi Isenringen Beckenried, about 80 square metres of Triopark oak granite were installed with the energetic support of both big and small helpers. The Pfadi is as happy as Bauwerk – a really successful project! Take a look at the enthusiastic participants below in the photo gallery.

Hubertusburg Castle, Wermsdorf (Germany)

BauwerkParquet gives the castle a new charm
Four days, 21 parquet installers, 12,000 wooden parts over 120 square metres – the result was celebrated as a work of art. The craftsmen worked hard for four days installing the new parquet in the rear wing of Hubertusburg Castle in Wermsdorf. As a special eye-catcher, the floor professionals created a picture of the Heinrichsorden, which was first given to Hubertusburg Castle in 1736. Alexander the Prince of Saxony, who has been the chairman of the order since 2010, raved about the "a monumental work" that was achieved here. Visit the photo gallery for the highlights.
