LVL from Fagus sylvatica Beech from Spain
Laminated veneer lumber from Spanish beech veneer with enhanced mechanical performance
or
Detail description
LVL product made from Spanish beech veneer shows improved bending strength and stiffness compared to sawn timber. Developed by CeseFor, this innovation enhances the beech wood value chain using high-quality logs with minimal defects. Mechanical testing confirms a 1.67 strength ratio and 1.43 modulus of elasticity ratio in small specimens, attributed to better material utilisation and reduced singularities. The product is classified as a product innovation under the FAGUS species in Spain.
