Structures and panels

As tropical timber is naturally resilient, good-looking and ecological sound, it is the logical choice for structural timber and panels.

Structures and panels

Uses

  • Lightweight structures
  • Glued laminated timber
  • Finger joints
  • Plywood, inside face and outside face
  • Plywood, inner layers
  • Sliced veneer

These products are typically used in sheltered situations that fall within use class 2 and 3 in tropical zones (EN 335:2013). The recommended durability is therefore lower than that   needed for heavy construction. The mechanical characteristics of the timber and its stability are the first criteria for this category of use. Appearance and aesthetics are also taken into account where timber is visible.
