Complementary components

We collaborate with Rothoblaas and Würth. 

There are several suppliers of brackets for fasteners adapted for wood-concrete connections. It is important to have a moisture barrier between the CLT and the concrete foundation to protect the panels from possible moisture.

The product is not sensitive to rain exposure for a short time but avoid accumulation of standing water. Make sure that water that has entered can quickly exit and dry out wood that has become moist before it is built in. A good way to keep track of moisture in the panels is to continuously perform moisture checks. Think about the assembly order and assemble it in sections so that they become weatherproof as you go.

Acoustics and sound requirements are solved with insulation and gypsum/boards to the extent needed for the desired sound class. CLT is a relatively light frame material, which makes it sensitive to low-frequency sounds. There are various ways to soundproof a frame, and it is common to use some form of elastomer between walls and floors to prevent sound from spreading between apartments and floors via the frame. Furthermore, some form of sound insulation is needed on apartment-separating walls and floors, such as suspended and vibrated ceilings with insulation under the floor or a framed wall layer next to the CLT wall.

No, the product is not sensitive to rain exposure for a short time but avoid accumulation of standing water. End grain, which absorbs water more easily than other panel surfaces, can be protected with tape or tarpaulin until the next floor is laid. Flat surfaces such as floors can be protected with Wetguard, a rainproof material similar to Goretex but for floors, if it stands unprotected for a long period of time. Make sure that water that has entered can exit quickly and dry out wood that has become moist before it is built in. A good way to keep track of moisture in the panels is to continuously perform moisture checks. Think about the assembly order and assemble vertically in sections to get the roof on quickly.

We offer hidden clips for mounting painted panels and for mounting our Frontwood three-layer board. The system solution is tested and approved even if the cladding requires fire protection treatment.
