Ultralam advantages
Unique LVL Ultralamโข properties afford to list it among the most prospective materials used for construction.
The application of LVL Ultralamโข covers a wide range of construction and not construction areas.
ฬโ Environmentally friendly engineered wood material with unique performance.
โ
โ Durability and long lasting appeal of Ultralamโข -based structures.
โ
โ Unchangeable performance over the entire service life.
โ
โ Homogenous material with unchangeable mechanical properties lengthwise.
โ
โ Consistent geometry and physical properties regardless of seasonal factors, environmental variations and climatic conditions.
โ High accuracy of adjacent elements.
โ
โ High bearing capacity.
โ
โ Resistance to corrosive agents.
โ
โ Optimal performance/weight ratio.
โ
โ High bio and fire resistance.
โ
โ High thermal and sound insulating properties.
โ
โ Material is easy to process with any cutting instruments.
โ
โ Material is not subject to deformations caused by humidity variations and has low values of natural shrinkage.
โ
โ There are almost no service costs related to LVL usage.
โ
โ Convenient, easy and fast installation of LVL products.
โ
โ With an adequate strength reserve, reinforced foundations and bearing structures are not required.
โ
โ Price of Ultralamโข products do not depend on their length and cross sections.
โ
โ Easy mechanical processing and preservative treatment.
โ
โ Besides its high physical and mechanical properties, laminated veneer lumber fully retains the appearance
of natural wood which allows to use LVL-based products and structures in interior applications without
additional finishing.
