Laminated GoodWood Australian Hardwood, manufactured from Eucalyptus delegatensis (Alpine Ash) and regnans (Mountain Ash), provides wider widths and thicker thicknesses, maximising the use of smaller regrowth logs. Ensures cost effective supply of thick wide boards.
GTP also produces the SUPALAMTM range, a finger – jointed, edge laminated product made from GoodWood Australian Hardwood.
Features and Benefits
Stability – visually graded kiln dried hardwood dimensionally stable making it an ideal species
to laminate
Strength – major benefit of glue lamination is the increase in strength that can be achieved through randomisation of natural timber defects in the laminating process
Impact resistance – laminated GoodWood with a high izod reading of 18-20 joules has the ability to absorb high impact loads for short periods with no adverse effects
Workability – glue laminated product is easy to work with using standard carpentry tools
Fire resistance – large sections have a high fire resistance and char but still maintain their structural integrity for a long period of timed
Colour matching – range from pale pink to straw tones through to nut brown. Every attempt is made
to produce glue laminate that has a high level of colour consistency as well as performance consistency, so that the appearance of the finished product is that of a solid piece of timber.
Glue laminated products available in Select Grade
Resistance to chemicals – timber is unaffected by most chemicals and resistant to degradation by salt air which can quickly corrode other building materials
Reliability – laminated components are manufactured to strict quality requirements from kiln dried visually graded Australian Hardwood which has proven history of high performance
Glue type used in appearance products – Duro –lok 2150 (2 parts, Cross Likning PVA) conforms to the European BS EN 204 –
exposure group D4 (white glue drying clear)
