Glulam - benefits to you

Warm-looking, atmospheric glulam is the popular alternative to cold concrete and steel.

Glulam's popular, because it's:

versatile - can be used for roof and floor beams, columns, rafters, decking, in fact almost any type of structure
light - one-sixth the weight of a reinforced concrete beam (two-thirds the weight of steel)
economical - our competitive pricing aside, glulam's lower weight leads to savings in transport, foundations and building
easy fixing - material that's easy to handle, work and erect
easy to customise - to your specific needs, with short delivery stock available in standard sizes
fire resistant - an important safety factor
durable - very durable with standard coating or preservative, but extra durability can be provided with special pressure-impregnated preservative, too
good looking - a natural and attractive appearance
approved British Standard 4169:1988 and BS EN 386:1995 'Specification for Glued Laminated Timber Structural Members'
energy conserving - a renewable resource that's ecologically attractive and that uses only a tenth of the energy it would take to produce an equivalent steel beam
fast delivery - Moelven glulam is available in standard stock sizes
