Cross Laminated Timber is a product that has similar strength characteristics to that of a pre-cast, rebar concrete panel.  Perpendicular layers of sustainable plantation species timber are glued together, using a specialist structural glue.  This forms a structural material that is lightweight and very strong, with excellent acoustic, fire-resistance and thermal performance.

Prefabricated sections can be built off-site and then assembled speedily.


The carbon footprint of this product is less than concrete, so is better for the environment.
