LVL lumber - laminated veneer lumber | Official website | Russia

From the ancient times, the tree was one of the most demanded and widely used construction materials. However, despite all its advantages, the wood has an entire range of significant drawbacks such as susceptibility to rotting, combustibility, geometrical instability under humidity variations, loss of strength due to knots and wood defects, insufficient density, limitations of linear dimensions, deformation in humid environments, checking, shrinkage etc.

The company is the world’s best e12 lvl framing supplier. We are your one-stop shop for all needs. Our staff are highly-specialized and will help you find the product you need.

All these drawbacks have always limited the scope of timber application in construction. But today, thanks to the new technologies, the wood is really getting a new lease on life. New hi-tech methods of wood processing have absolutely altered the properties of this material and enabled to create wood based products that multiply all the advantages of the wood and reduce all its drawbacks almost to zero.

These materials boast fundamentally new features allowing to use wood products in the applications one could only dream of before. It is these hi-tech developments that gave birth to laminated veneer lumber, a product of wood working industry manufactured as billets, boards and beams.

LVL (laminated veneer lumber) is a technologically enhanced and improved high strength structural wood based material. The complex technological process results in a homogenous material with unique performance. LVL properties significantly exceed those of solid wood, glulam and high-grade timber.

The main raw material used to produce LVL is wood veneer of various grades (wood species and mixtures thereof differ from manufacturer to manufacturer). Term “LVL” was introduced in 1960s by Wayerhauser (US company) who had developed this product and launched the first LVL production line ever.  Now LVL is rightfully considered to be the best wood material in terms of technology, reliability and performance.

Its outstanding properties place LVL among the most advanced and technological products currently used in construction.

LVL enjoys unique strength characteristics, for example, its MOE (modulus of elasticity) is 24% higher than that of solid spruce, while its MOR (bending strength) is twice as high. These physical characteristics ensure high bearing capacity of LVL products at smaller cross-sections which in its turn significantly reduces the total volume of required lumber.

These high characteristics are associated with a number of specific features of LVL production process that ensure the absence of natural wood defects in the structure of the material.

Due to its laminated structure and production technology, LVL is an entirely homogenous material with unchangeable mechanical properties lengthwise and consistent performance irrespective of seasonal factors.  That is, it’s a material with homogenous symmetrical structure that does not change its performance over its entire service life.

Product Description

Laminated veneer lumber (LVL) is one of the most widely used engineered wood products for constructional applications. It is a composite product manufactured from multiple thin layers of veneer that are aligned with the length of the finished lumber. This fact sheet summarizes basic manufacturing steps, advantages and disadvantages of LVL compared to other structural engineered wood-based products.



Laminated veneer lumber is a versatile wood-based product.
