The first step in crafting a wooden box is to cut long wooden planks to a specific, pre-set width. One person feeds the planks into the machine while another removes them.

Since 1949, the name Lessmann has been synonymous with traditional box-making craftsmanship, based in Nördlingen, Bavaria. The workshop is now in its third generation of family ownership under Werner Lessmann.
They manufacture wooden boxes for all types of beverages and gift packaging. The company is dedicated to producing beer and wine boxes, as well as custom-made products and designs from sustainable wood.

The company’s main customers are beer, wine, and coffee distributors who require special packaging.
