Shortly about CLT
‘‘Stora Enso’s CLT (Cross Laminated Timber) is a sol-
id wood construction product consisting of at least three bonded single-layer panels arranged at right angles to each other. From five layers, CLT can also include middle layers (transverse layers) without narrow side bonding. It currently measures up to 2.95 × 16 m.

CLT solid wood panels are made up of several layers and
are available in different panel thicknesses depending on structural requirements. The layers are bonded together using formaldehyde-free and environmentally-friendly adhesive which makes up less than 1% of the entire product.

CLT offers virtually boundless possibilities in terms of con- struction concept, style and architecture, and is fully compat- ible with other building materials. CLT is suitable for internal and external walls and for ceilings and roofs. The complete finished pre-cut CLT panels are delivered by truck directly
to your construction site, ready for fitting by a construction company.’’
