About us
Wood Shapers, integrated bio-based expertise for a new era of construction

We are the CFE Group’s center of excellence for bio-based construction in Belgium & Luxembourg. Our approach draws on timber and other bio-based materials, leveraging the benefits of modularity and off-site construction to ensure speed, precision, and consistency — all while reducing waste and carbon emissions. 

By aligning engineering precision with environmental performance, we support CFE’s construction and real estate entities create high-quality, circular buildings that leave a lighter footprint and a lasting impact on the built environment. 

Projects with a measurable impact

Fighting climate change, reducing our footprint, and implementing ambitious sustainability initiatives are part of our daily work — from new developments to refurbishments.
Every action counts. Together, we act with purpose and passion, every day.
