Laminated Timbers

Laminated timber is a multi-layer engineered product which helps provide a reliable product service life.  For example Oak can be prone to movement but after the laminating process this is almost completely eliminated.

Please contact our team for expert advice on our extensive range of products across:

  • Oak
  • Red Pine
  • Meranti
  • Sapele

Why laminate timber?

Product:

Lamination gives a very stable timber product, ideal for timber windows and doors which when they are painted the jointing is unseen.

Commercial:

In a commercial sense it utilises waste wood from sawn sizes, maximises yield from the log, generating additional revenue for the sawmills, often operating in economically fragile areas.

Forest & Environment: 

The forest is left intact as a home for biodiversity due to the reduced impact logging.  See our film on the home page for more information on how reduced impact logging is done in well managed tropical forestry for joinery and engineering hardwood timbers.   

Carbon reduction continuous improvement:  Buying laminates from source supports supply chain decarbonisation.  The more value add done at source, the more carbon efficient the timber transport.
