GLT special components
For greater architecture in the construction trade.
Glued-laminated timber is made from dried timber and is structured in several layers. This design opens up essential areas of use in construction to the material of timber. For instance, in "airy" roof constructions for both commercial properties and residential buildings. In these applications, GLT is not only an aesthetic construction material, but above all, it offers technical benefits. Especially in the case of fire, timber comes up trumps compared with many other construction materials with a long carrying capacity.
