Global Building systems Think Wood Construction in Wood

Right solution for the unique building

Byggarbetsplats projektet Kilströmskaj Karlskrona under uppbyggnad KL-trä
Whatever material a designer chooses, stability and sustainability should both be highly important. Which is why it’s crucial to find the right solution for every project. Massive wood has a high supporting capacity and great product attributes.

A simple and robust building technique that offering significant advantages

  • Due to its strength in relation to its weight, massive wood is an incredibly stable material

  • Massive wood elements are produced in large dimension spans, up to 3x12 meters.

  • When needed, wood absorbs moisture, which creates a consistent indoor climate, as well as a nice working and living environment.

We have the digital tools you need

Södra offers a competitive advantage by using digital models based on designing and manufacturing drawings in a fully digitalised production. This results in perfectly fitted construction elements prepared with milled tracks for cables and piping, both of which allows construction time to reduced significantly. Thanks to this, the time between your vision and the finished project has never been shorter.

Major development opportunities

Increasing market interest 

Today, the construction of multi-story houses using timber accounts for 15 per cent of the market share – and interest is growing all the time. During the last decade, the technical and environmental advantages of wood have been recognised. This has resulted in more multi-storey houses and other large construction projects being built using wood.

 

Constant improvements

A lot of things that can be improved to make the building process more effective. However, no other construction technique has developed as fast and timber building systems hold several advantages over other more traditional construction methods. We build efficiently without adding to the negative climate impact of the building sector.

 

Opened for new innovations

We’ve no doubt that massive wood will become the natural choice for constructing high-rise buildings. To meet increasing requirements, we’ve made big investments in production capacity, research, and development. We’re always open to collaborating with customers to explore new ideas and projects that can help broaden the use of and improve the functionality.

Sustainability, all the way

Few things are more natural than products from the Swedish forest. We are one of Europe's largest suppliers of wood for construction and almost all of our raw material comes from our owners' forests. These forests have been managed for generations, with great care and respect for nature. In order to maintain sustainable forestry, we plant at least three new trees for each that we harvest.
