What is Glulam?

A natural alternative to steel and concrete

What is Glulam

Glulam is a natural structural material that is economical, strong and attractive looking, used as a natural alternative to steel or concrete.

It is made by gluing together, under pressure and heat, laminates of timber that have been accurately planed, producing a strong, stable and corrosion-proof beam.

Glulam is made with wood from Scandinavian sustainable forests, usually spruce, though sometimes redwood or Siberian larch, and its manufacture consumes less energy than other building materials.
