Laminated and modified timbers are becoming increasingly popular in the construction industry.
Laminated wood is just as aesthetically pleasing as solid wood, and is a great alternative for exposed beams, compared to steel or concrete. At International Timber, we specialise in laminated and modified timber products - providing a variety of colours and sizes perfect for any project.

There are plenty of advantages to using laminated timber for your project. Laminated timber is a great option for those who are concerned about the environment, as it is constructed from smaller pieces of wood and the manufacturing process is very quick compared to other materials such as steel. It is also much more affordable than alternatives and very easy to work with - saving you time and money on labour.
Modified timber is treated by thermal or chemical processes. Thermally treated wood is taken up to 180°C, this strips away oxygen to prevent it from burning and makes a stronger piece of timber. Chemically treated wood is introduced to different substances such as hot oil, to strengthen and modify it.
Not only is modified wood much stronger and long-lasting, but it’s resistant to pretty much anything, so if you’re looking to create something you’d like to last a very long time, modified wood is the best choice for you.
