Straight components
Thanks to the high architectural requirements in construction and the trend towards ecological building, glued-laminated timber has experienced a tremendous upturn over the last few years.
Everywhere that high shape retention and dimensional accuracy is required in combination with cost efficiency and an elegant finish, glued-laminated timber is a far better choice than solid timber. Because of the rigid connection between the individual planks of timber, it is possible to produce components that possess much better technical properties than solid timber. Expansive surfaces and challenging structural requirements are easy to overcome when using glued-laminated timber to create special components.
