Glued wood, untreated
Glued laminated timber (glulam) is an overall cross-section glued together from several layers (lamellas).
The individual pieces of wood made from untreated spruce are dried, scanned for defects, sorted and joined endlessly by finger joints. Several individual lamellas are then glued together in a weatherproof manner.
The components are load-bearing, less prone to cracking or twisting, and are even more resilient than naturally grown wood. Untreated spruce wood must be protected against fungal and insect attack when used outdoors.
More resilient than naturally grown wood
Douglas fir, untreated
Douglas fir is resistant to insects and fungal attack due to resins and oils contained in the wood. In addition, the wood has a high surface hardness.
We only use technically dried Douglas fir, some of which is finger-jointed along its length.
If Douglas fir is not treated with glazes, a silvery gray patina forms on the surface over time. This protects against environmental influences without the need for costly wood care.
We use only technically dried Douglas fir
KVH, untreated
In the case of solid structural timber (KVH), the individual pieces of wood are dried, scanned for defects, sorted and glued together weatherproof by finger-jointing.
We use untreated spruce wood, which must be protected against fungal and insect attack outdoors.
Only specially certified companies are allowed to produce solid structural timber (KVH).
We use technically dried, endlessly glued, solid spruce wood
Softwood,
impregnated
Spruce and pine wood is impregnated with metal salts dissolved in water without UV protection, giving it a greenish, later grayish color. Residual moisture may cause resin leakage, cracking or twisting during drying, which is statically harmless.
However, the impregnation against fungi and insects does not contain UV protection, so the surface will turn gray over time. For color treatment, darker shades are particularly suitable due to the impregnation.
Impregnation against fungi and insects
Coniferous wood,
untreated
Planed softwood, which is used in its natural form and contains no further processing or additives, is also called solid wood. Exterior softwood must be protected against fungal and insect attack.
Resin leakage, cracking or twisting are a natural process in all woods, but more so in solid wood than in glulam or KVH. Statically this is harmless
Wood in its natural form
Aluminum, powder coated
Corrosion and extremely weather-resistant powder-coated aluminum combines metallic elegance and high stability as a material.
No corrosion and extremely weatherproof
28 mm wall planks
Planed from finger-jointed spruce wood. Ideal for tool sheds and smaller garden sheds.
Logs with single groove
45 mm wall planks
Planed from finger-jointed spruce wood. High stability for larger garden houses due to more stable logs and two grooves and springs.
Logs with double groove
70 mm wall planks
Planed from finger-jointed spruce wood. Our strongest planks which are optimalen use for very large garden or leisure houses.
