Laminated vener lumber (LVL) for construction

VMG LIGNUM LVL is a type of engineered timber used in construction, called Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL). Its beams and boards are suitable for a wide range of timber structures, especially when maximum strength is required.

LVL is also the most efficiently biomass-utilizing load bearing material of all engineered timber load-bearing construction materials. In VMG LIGNUM LVL–P all veneers are glued parallel. Slabs and beams made of VMG LVL-P are used very efficiently due to their height to thickness ratio. VMG LVL-P can be used both vertically and horizontally. 

In VMG LIGNUM LVL-C, up to 20% of the veneers are cross-glued. Cross gluing improves the lateral bending strength and stiffness of the panel, and the shear strength of such a product is higher.
