What Is LVL Timber?

What is LVL Timber?

LVL timber is an engineered wood product made by bonding together thin layers of wood veneers with adhesives. This process creates a strong and stable material that is less prone to warping, splitting, or shrinking compared to traditional solid timber. LVL is ideal for structural applications, including beams, headers, and joists, making it a preferred choice for builders and architects.

Benefits of Using LVL Timber

1. Strength and Durability

LVL timber is designed to withstand heavy loads, making it suitable for a wide range of structural applications. Its engineered nature ensures consistent quality and performance, providing peace of mind for builders and homeowners alike.

2. Versatility

LVL can be used in various applications, from residential framing to commercial construction. Its adaptability allows it to be used in both interior and exterior projects, making it a versatile choice for any building design.

3. Sustainability

Hume Building Products is committed to sustainability. Our LVL timber is sourced from responsibly managed forests, ensuring that you can build with confidence while minimizing your environmental impact.

4. Cost-Effective

While LVL timber may have a higher upfront cost compared to traditional timber, its durability and reduced maintenance needs make it a cost-effective choice in the long run. Builders can save on labor and material costs due to its ease of installation and longevity.
