C.L.T – Cross Lam Timber
CLT “Cross Laminated Timber” is a solid, static load-bearing timber panel that is ideal for many structural requirements thanks to its flexible dimensions and outstanding physical properties.
Durable bonding of the cross-wise layered construction made of high-quality raw material guarantees that the components are absolutely dimensionally stable and rigid.
As a building product, its versatile nature and multi-use qualities are leading the way in forward thinking design where traditionally other materials were used.
What’s it made from?
Finger-jointed and planed lamellas of graded Spruce wood from sustainably managed forests are laid next to each other and the flat surfaces of the layers glued at right angles to one another. To avoid uncontrolled stress cracks, the narrow sides are not glued. The layers are pushed laterally to dimension before applying the pressure (1.2 N/mm2) in order to obtain a gap-free surface.
The manufactured panels are then surface planned to exacting sizes. The panels can be supplied either as ‘blank’ CLT panels or can be CNC fabricated to allow for rebates, drill holes & connection details etc all as per the project requirements.
What we provide:
Structural design, manufacture of the CLT panels using the latest 3D CAD modeling and panel processing, delivery and fitting.
Advantages:

Space gain due to reduced component thickness
Larger / higher construction over timber frame
Flexible design without grid pattern
Excellent shape and dimensional accuracy
Outstanding structural properties
Prefabricated elements, simple low-dust and low-noise assembly
Short building time due to dry construction
Natural, sustainable construction material
