In combination with advanced technical research and engineering, our current building projects serve as an integral part of the WLT product development. We are exploring WLT-only material solutions as well as combinations with other materials, such as insulation, impregnation and surface treatments.
We have finished several projects in Finland and one in Indonesia, trying different wood species, new solutions and user scenarios with WLT®.
Similar partnership projects are being developed in different parts of the world. We are proud to announce our newest collaboration with the Urban Design Build Studio (UDBS) AR HOME LAB at the Fay Jones School of Architecture + Design, University of Arkansas, USA. The UDBS AR HOME LAB will design and build three family houses using the WLT, as part of a project addressing affordable housing and the use of regional timber resources.
