On this page you will find all information about the history of Westag AG.
The name Westag stands for a long-established and successful company that has been making its mark for more than a century. Our creative and motivated employees, high-tech production, deliberately sustainable operations and highly efficient logistics make us one of the leading European manufacturers of wood-based products.
The origins of our company date far back. On 7 December 1901, Joseph Ellendorff established a furniture factory that would later become Westag AG.
We are a forward-looking company that believes in first-class training for new employees in every department. We currently employ 30 trainees.
Our sales activities are focused on Europe. Much of this business is concentrated in Western Europe, although Eastern Europe is becoming increasingly important. Naturally, we also distribute our products worldwide.
In the business year 2024, we generated revenue of €186.3 million and thus continued the successful course of years past.
Westag has a workforce of round about 900 employees. These men and women have been with the company an average of 22 years; they live according to its philosophy and simultaneously help articulate that philosophy.
Because of the growing variety of our high-quality products and the expansion of our product line in the segment Surfaces/Elements, we have been manufacturing at two locations since 1976, in Rheda-Wiedenbrück and in Wadersloh, and additionally in Saterland since 2024.
