About DroomHout

DreamWood - the beginning

DroomHout is the brand name of a unique company in Utrecht. As part of The Wood Collection BV, DroomHout produces beautiful, exclusive wooden furniture and custom interiors. On 1 January 2008, father Pierre Mentrop and son Jacques Mentrop took over the then Social Workshop of UW Holding (Utrechtse

Werkbedrijven) of the Municipality of Utrecht. DroomHout is rapidly developing into one of the most prominent suppliers of unique and exclusive wooden furniture and custom work for both companies and individuals. For this purpose, almost all types of wood that can be processed on earth are used, with European oak and American walnut being the main types. Early in 2009, Mentrop senior decided to continue his existing oak panel business and from that moment on, son Jacques ran the factory together with an enthusiastic team of professionals. After Pierre Mentrop decided to exchange the wood for a well-deserved retirement in 2016, the brand Eikenpanelen.nl was continued as a tribute to him. In 2025, the trading activities of DroomHout were incorporated into the new brand Avalon . Together with DroomHout, these are currently our three active brand names.
