Glue Laminated Timber Manufacturer
Custom Glulam Solutions for Complex Timber Structures
Engineered glulam beams and columns provide flexible structural solutions for mass timber construction and complex architectural design. We manufacture custom glulam members and heavy timber truss components to precise specifications, enabling curved beams, long spans, and unique geometries. Detailed shop drawings support coordination, fabrication accuracy, and efficient installation.
Certified Glulam Manufacturing and Structural Performance
Our glulam products are manufactured to recognized industry standards with certified processes, third-party quality control, and full material traceability. Available in species including Douglas Fir, Hem-Fir, Southern Yellow Pine, and Alaska Yellow Cedar, custom glulam beams and trusses are produced in a wide range of sizes and finishes to meet structural and project requirements.
High Strength Structural Glulam
Glulam beams are engineered by laminating dimension lumber to create high-strength structural members. They deliver excellent load-bearing capacity, stiffness, and long-span performance for mass timber construction in commercial, institutional, and multi-family buildings.
Dimensional Stability & Performance
The lamination process improves dimensional stability, reducing warping, twisting, and checking. Glulam beams and columns maintain consistent structural performance, supporting reliable installation and long-term durability in mass timber and engineered wood construction.
Glulam Design Flexibility
Glulam beams can be manufactured in a wide range of sizes, shapes, and curved profiles. This flexibility supports long spans, complex geometries, and exposed timber structures for efficient and integrated mass timber design.
Sustainable Engineered Wood Material
Glulam is produced from renewable wood fiber and stores carbon throughout its service life. Compared to steel and concrete, glulam timber offers a lower embodied carbon footprint, supporting sustainable construction and low-carbon building design.
Structural Glulam Beams and Columns for Mass Timber Construction
Glulam beams and columns are engineered wood products designed for structural performance in mass timber construction. Manufactured by laminating dimension lumber, they deliver high strength, long spans, and dimensional stability, supporting efficient design, reliable fabrication, and consistent performance across commercial, institutional, and multi-family building projects.
Curved Glulam.
Custom Solutions for Creative Designs.
Curved glulam beams enable architects and builders to create complex structural forms not achievable with conventional materials. We manufacture straight and curved glulam beams and heavy timber trusses for arches, radiused members, and roof systems, with shop drawings supporting accurate fabrication and efficient installation.
Glulam Beams and Columns for Mass Timber Structures
Mass timber glulam beams and columns provide flexible structural solutions for efficient construction and architectural design. We manufacture custom glulam members and heavy timber truss components to precise specifications, with detailed shop drawings supporting coordination, fabrication accuracy, and efficient on-site installation.
Engineered Timber Projects
Our glulam products have been used in a wide range of mass timber projects, as demonstrated in the following examples, which highlight structural performance, long spans, and efficient installation in modern timber construction.
