SUSTAINABLE FROM THE GROUND UP: LIGNOLOC® CLT IN SOLID WOOD CONSTRUCTION

Find out more about the innovative possibilities and environmentally friendly benefits of LIGNOLOC® CLT (Cross-laminated timber)

What is cross laminated timber (CLT)?

CLT (Cross-Laminated Timber) is an innovative solid wood product that impresses with its multi-layered construction. It consists of at least three cross-laminated timber layers, making it particularly stable, load-bearing and dimensionally stable. This structure enables large spans and versatile use in residential and commercial constructions, as well as for adding storeys.

A major advantage of Cross Laminated Timber is its sustainability - it comes from resource-conserving forestry and contributes to CO₂ storage. As a natural building material, it also ensures a healthy indoor climate without harmful emissions. Thanks to precise production, large-format elements with millimeter-precise cutting and finished surfaces are possible, making CLT a modern and high-performance building material.

In contrast to conventional methods such as CLT or NLT, which require either chemical adhesives or metal fasteners, LCLT technology enables a purely wood-based construction - with LIGNOLOC® CLT, wood is joined with wood using wood. And everyone benefits from this: timber constructors and craftsmen, building users and, of course, our environment.

The use of LIGNOLOC® wooden nails in the production of Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) elements enables a metal-free, single-material connection between the layers of wood, resulting in a fully wood-based construction. This method enhances sustainability in construction while also improving energy efficiency and the indoor climate, thanks to the natural properties of wood.

LCLT vs. CLT | benefits 

Compared to conventional CLT, LCLT made with LIGNOLOC® wooden nails offers numerous advantages. This construction method eliminates the need for full-surface gluing and metallic connection elements, resulting in improved energy efficiency, reduced CO₂ emissions, and enhanced indoor air quality. And that's not all! Discover all the benefits and application examples in the free whitepaper!
