LVL, or Laminated Veneer Lumber, is a dimensionally very stable and straight wood product constructed from veneer sheets that have been glued together. We at Raute have been supplying and developing LVL production technology for decades. We work closely with our customers so that we can always find the best possible solution for their production needs.
LVL is typically used as load-bearing components in floors, walls and roofs, for applications requiring a long span with minimum deflection.
Due to its exceptional weight-to-strength ratio, LVL competes well with steel and concrete as a building material in long-span building structures. Properly produced LVL material fulfils all the necessary requirements for building material certificates around the world.
LVL can be produced from any wood species. We provide smart grading techniques that enable you to produce the strongest possible LVL products from the raw material available to you. Our LVL process is based on a combination of continuous lay-up and cycle-type hot pressing, and is suitable for the production of LVL products in all lengths.
LVL is easy to use at building sites: it is lightweight and can be sawn and drilled with the same equipment as timber, and coated with various treatments according to its end use.
LVL offers endless design possibilities because it can be manufactured in any length or desired shape. It is a relatively low-cost material for construction and panel-type applications. LVL products are eco-friendly, safe and aesthetically pleasing.
We at Raute supply LVL production lines tailored to our customers’ changing needs. The LVL manufacturing process we have developed has proven to be the most reliable and most adaptable process available. We are a global market leader in the LVL industry. More than half of the LVL manufactured in the world is produced using manufacturing machines delivered by Raute.
LVL is a high added-value and sustainable engineered wood product. The global LVL market is constantly growing. The advantages and possibilities of LVL have been globally recognized in past decades and we believe the true potential of LVL is yet to be unleashed.
