Wooden panel houses are an innovative technology , the construction of which is based on glued laminated timber, which is an industrially produced building material made from individual coniferous wood boards of various dimensions that are glued together.
The advantages of such a house are a shorter construction time - up to 50%, lower requirements for the installation of the foundation, since ready-made spatial elements are used. Thanks to the properties of building materials, insulation or any type of cladding of the house can be done simply, accurately and sustainably in the long term. The weight of building materials is 5-6 times less than that of reinforced concrete, so less freight transport is required for cargo delivery and less powerful lifting equipment at the construction site. It should be noted that building materials have high fire and seismic resistance, with proper operation the building will last more than 100 years. The construction process is clean and quiet, no waste is formed.
Visual appearance in the interior
A house made of glued wood panels gives the interior a natural and warm atmosphere. The natural texture of wood creates coziness and elegance, which is difficult to achieve with other building materials. Wood panel walls do not require additional cladding due to their high surface quality, which allows you to maintain a natural and aesthetically attractive appearance.
By choosing glued laminated timber panel houses, you get not only an innovative and sustainable construction solution, but also an elegant and cozy interior that will suit both modern and traditional styles.

Why is it important to choose to build from wood?
By building with wood, we can significantly reduce the climate impact of the construction industry. Wood buildings have the ability to store large amounts of CO2, which is essential in combating the climate crisis. Studies show that in Europe alone, wood buildings have the potential to store 420 million metric tons of CO2 over the next 20 years. While there is a strong chance that wood will become increasingly popular as a building material, there are still some challenges to overcome, such as sustainable forest management and securing the supply chain.
Innovative Technology
The construction is based on Glued Laminated Wood, which is an industrially produced building material from individual softwood boards of various dimensions, which are glued together.
Ecological Construction
Environmentally friendly and carbon encapsulating building material. Inside the building, the walls do not need additional plastering or plastering. The construction process is clean and quiet, no residues are formed.
Easy to Transport
The weight of the building material is 5-6 times less than that of reinforced concrete, therefore less cargo transport units are needed for cargo delivery, on the construction site - less powerful lifting equipment.
Simple Insulation
Thanks to the properties of the building material, insulation of the building or any type of cladding can be done simply, accurately and in a long-term durability.
Shorter Construction Time
Up to 50% shorter construction time. Lower requirements for foundation installation. Thanks to the finished spatial elements, a high degree of folding.
Communications
Channels are built into the panels, which provide space for wiring and are not visible. Drilling holes for wiring is possible in almost all places of element connections. All connections are simple to perform and cost-effective
Protection against heat
Among traditional building materials, wood has the highest heat storage capacity.
Absorbs solar energy and
very little heat is transferred inside the house.
The stored solar energy is released back during the night hours
Longevity
The building material has high fire and seismic resistance. Properly operated, the building will last for 100+ years.
Air permeability of glued wood panel
To reduce heat energy consumption in a building, it is necessary to ensure low air permeability in the building's enclosing structures. It is important to understand that low air permeability of building structures is not related to “structural breathing” and room ventilation, but to structural leaks, which can mainly form at the joints of enclosing structures. The weak point of many Latvian energy-efficient projects is that the issues of building air permeability have not been resolved.
Heating of air entering through various leaks can account for up to 40% of total heat loss. Large uncontrolled air flow also causes drafts, moisture damage to structures, and overheating of rooms in the summer.
Therefore, when implementing each project, great attention is paid to this aspect. Glued wood panel helps us find the best solution, as it is ideal for the construction of energy-efficient buildings.

Fire safety
The combustion process of GLT wood is stable and predictable, the massive wooden columns, beams and panels have very good fire resistance. The wood chars during combustion and this charring insulates the internal parts from further damage for a considerable period of time. The charring becomes an insulating layer that prevents excessive temperature increases in the unburned core of the panel. It is this unaffected core that continues to function during the fire resistance period.
It is designed so that the load-bearing structures of buildings guarantee high fire resistance. Glued wooden elements meet all the latest and strictest requirements, thus ensuring safe evacuation of people during a fire. After conducting research and tests, in some cases there is a possibility of preserving the load-bearing structures of the building even after a fire.


Advantages of GLT panels
The low weight of the building structures reduces assembly costs
Cutouts, drilling holes and openings can be easily and precisely made on site
Quick, easy and simple assembly
Manufacturing elements in-house significantly reduces costs
Loads applied immediately after assembly
Dimensional stability thanks to gluing and technical drying
Preparatory work can be carried out regardless of weather conditions
High fire and chemical resistance
No need to worry about additional time for materials to harden
The low weight of the building structures reduces assembly costs
Lower requirements and costs for foundation construction
After assembly, work is carried out without delay
No additional moisture was created in the building during construction.
Thanks to the quality of the panels' surface, the inside of the wall spaces does not need to be plastered or treated.
Channels are built into the panels, providing space for electrical wiring and are not visible
Among traditional building materials, wood has the highest heat storage capacity.
