What is CLT?
Cross Laminated Timber (also known as CLT) is a wooden panel consisting of wooden planks glued at right angles to each other. Each layer provides strength and stability and allows for greater spans than other timber products. The panels are usually manufactured in the factory in sizes from 1 to 3 meters deep and up to 18 meters long with a thickness of 5 to 30 cm. This makes them ideal for load-bearing applications such as walls, ceilings and roofs. Special constructions such as stairs and elevator shafts are also possible using the CLT construction method.
