What is Laminated Veneer Lumber?

Laminated veneer lumber (LVL) is one of the most widely used engineered wood products for constructional applications. It is a composite product manufactured from multiple thin layers of veneer that are aligned with the length of the finished lumber. LVL is suitable for use as beams, trusses, planks and rafters.

Good Dimensional

Stabilitylaminated structure of LVL greatly reduces the possibility arping and twisting.so the dimensional stability of LVL is good

High Strength

As the LVL is made of veneers which are cut by rotary cutting machine and assembled with adhesives through hot-pressing.Therefore, it can reduce the influence of strength defects,

Low CostLVL

production could use small diameter wood, bent wood and short logs, therefore the output rate could reach 60% to 70%. In other words,LVL cxould produce value-added effect by using small material and inferior material

Flexible Sizes

For special manufacturing method, the sizes of the LVL is not limited by the sizes of the logs or the veneers, so the sizes is flexible, can be freely chosen. LVL thickness is up to 150 mm and above difficult to transport if too thick or too long, the length is up to 12 meters.
