Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) is an engineered wood product that offers exceptional strength, stability, and versatility for a wide range of construction and building projects. Composed of thin wood veneers layered and bonded together with adhesives, LVL provides superior performance compared to traditional lumber.

Benefits of LVL:

• Exceptional Strength: LVL beams and headers are significantly stronger than comparable dimensional lumber, allowing for longer spans and greater load-carrying capacity.
• Dimensional Stability: LVL resists warping, twisting, and shrinking, ensuring consistent performance and reducing costly callbacks.
• Versatility: LVL can be used in various applications, including:
• Headers over windows and doors
• Beams for floor and roof systems
• Rim board and edge-forming material
• Scaffolding planks
• Cost-Effectiveness: While the initial cost of LVL may be higher than traditional lumber, its superior performance and reduced labor costs often result in overall savings.
• Sustainability: LVL is often manufactured from fast-growing, renewable wood species, making it an environmentally responsible choice.

LVL Applications:

• Residential Construction: LVL is ideal for creating strong and stable headers, beams, and floor joists in homes and additions.
• Commercial Construction: LVL's strength and dimensional stability make it suitable for larger-scale projects, such as office buildings, retail spaces, and multi-family housing.
• Remodeling and Renovations: LVL is a versatile solution for structural upgrades and additions to existing structures.
