Glulam

Customised glulam

Holmen’s customised glulam offering is exactly what it sounds like – a range where we tailor the delivery entirely to the needs and requirements of a specific structural object. As a customer, you can come to us at Holmen with your wishlist and we will draw up a proposal that meets the brief.

Glulam comprises finger-jointed lengths of wood that are glued together to form beams of the desired dimensions. In relation to its weight, glulam has a higher load-bearing capacity than both steel and concrete. This makes it the ideal material for creating buildings with large spans and flexible layouts.

Easy to work on. Large elements enable rapid assembly, which is good for the overall economics of the project. Glulam can be worked on using traditional hand tools and simplifies the installation of utilities.

Pleasant environments. Glulam contributes to light and pleasant indoor environments. Moisture-buffering properties create a good indoor climate and exposed wooden details can become key elements of attractive design solutions.

A smart climate choice. The construction components are made using renewable raw material, in a process that has a minimal impact on the climate. It binds carbon dioxide throughout its lifetime.

Sustainable forestry. Through our expert wood buyers, we can give advice to forest owners about silviculture measures, and so contribute to active, healthy and sustainable forestry.

Environmental awareness at every level. Holmen’s production facilities are certified to ISO 14001 and many of our products are CE marked. We are also able to deliver FSC® (FSC-ID) and PEFCTM certified products (licence nos. FSC-C104016 and PEFC/05-32-55), confirming the chain of custody of the raw material. 

Fire safety properties

Thanks to their large, homogeneous cross-sections, glulam structures have good protective properties in the event of a fire. The nature of the material makes it stable during the initial phase of a fire and that stability increases with greater dimensions. Glulam is slow to catch fire and it burns slowly. The way the heat develops during a fire is often crucial in determining whether the fire will spread or burn out. The charred layer that forms on the surface of the glulam in a fire protects the inner parts and helps the glulam to retain its load-bearing capacity as the fire continues. The penetration rate for glulam is generally around 0.5–1.0 mm per minute (approx. 40 mm per hour). Further fire protection can be achieved via surface treatment or encasing.

For more information on glulam and its stability in a fire, see The Glulam Handbook.

Standard range glulam

Screw glued cross-sections

In addition to the standard dimensions in which our glulam is manufactured, you can also choose a screw glued cross-section, where two or more glulam elements are combined to create the dimensions required for the object in question.

Specialist solutions

For objects with special requirements, we are also able to develop specialist solutions where a number of glulam posts work together to increase the load-bearing capacity, for example in the form of hollow columns.
