LVL beams: for strength and precision

LVL beams consist of several thin layers of veneer wood bonded together under high pressure. This build-up creates a particularly strong and stable beam, with high dimensional stability and reliable technical performance. That is precisely why LVL beams are a smart choice in timber constructions where precision and load-bearing capacity matter.

We offer two types of laminated veneer lumber (LVL):

  • LVL-C: 20% of the veneer layers are cross-bonded
  • LVL-P for walls: all veneer layers are bonded in parallel

LVL-P offers particularly high strength and stiffness in the lengthwise direction and is therefore well suited to beams, studs and columns. LVL-C, on the other hand, performs more strongly perpendicular to the grain and is therefore more often used for panels and lintels.

Features of LVL beams

  • High strength and stiffness
  • Excellent dimensional stability
  • LVL-P and LVL-C available
  • For beams, columns, panels and lintels

The right type for every application

Choose LVL-P when strength and stiffness in the lengthwise direction are decisive, for example for beams, studs and columns. For panels and lintels, where the load acts perpendicular to the grain, LVL-C is the better choice. This way, you always have a structural element that exactly matches the technical requirements of your project.
