Structural glued solid wooden panel (PEFC certified)

KLH Massivholz
The crossways arrangement of the longitudinal and crosswise lamellas reduced the swelling and shrinkage in the board plane to an insignificant minimum - static strength and shape retention increase considerably. Compared to conventional timber construction products, cross-laminated timber offers entirely new possibilities when it comes to load transfer. Not only can loads be transferred in one direction (as is the case, for example, with supports, girders, etc.) but on all sides (referred to as "genuine plate and sheet action").
Only technically dried wood with a wood moisture of 12% (+/- 2%) is used to produce KLH solid cross-laminated timber boards. This rules out any damaging pest, fungus and insect attacks. All boards used are subject to a visual and mechanical quality sorting procedure.
The gluing takes place using solvent-free and formaldehyde-free PUR adhesive from Purbond (HB 110, HB 530) - this adhesive is tested according to DIN 68141 and other strict criteria of the MPA Baden Württemberg, Otto Graf Institute Stuttgart and is recognised for the production of internal and external supporting timber components and special construction methods in accordance with DIN 1052 and EN 301. The glue is applied automatically over the whole surface - the percentage of adhesive is 0.2 kg/m² and glue seam. A very high-quality level of adhesion is achieved as a result of the pressing power of approx. 6 kg/cm2.
The factory cutting and beaming of KLH solid cross-laminated timber boards takes place using state-of-the-art CNC technology. The basis for the cutting is formed by the cutting plans of the client. On request and with the appropriate equipment, the boards can also be cut by the relevant construction company.
