Schaffitzel Holzindustrie produces Brettschichtholz (glulam) for structural applications, including large-span and complex timber structures. The material is manufactured by bonding strength-graded, dried timber laminations to create stable, load-bearing components that can be produced in straight, curved, and block-glued configurations.
Made from a renewable raw material, Schaffitzel’s glulam uses timber from PEFC-certified forests. Carbon absorbed by trees during growth remains stored in the timber throughout its service life, while the material’s high load-bearing capacity and relatively low self-weight enable structurally efficient construction and large spans. Factory production allows components to be accurately prefabricated for assembly on site, while appropriate design, timber protection, and maintenance can support a long service life.
