Believe it or not, you’re looking at a mile of timber! It might not look like it, but laid end to end, the timber on this pallet measures exactly one mile (1,609 metres). Quite a lot of timber in one rather unassuming stack! #BucklandTimber #TimberManufacturing

There’s nothing quite like seeing how glulam is made! A look back at our September CPD and factory tour, where we welcomed industry professionals to Buckland Timber. Some lovely feedback from those who joined us! Interested in a future CPD? Get in touch. #Glulam #CPD

A little side quest...

Something exciting is taking shape in the woods – and it’s not glulam for a change! It’s still very much a work in progress, but we couldn’t resist sharing a sneak peek. More to come soon…

This glulam car port is now up on site, with its angled posts and roof beams forming the main structure. A nice example of #glulam being used on a relatively small project - will be good to see this one again once the roof is complete with solar panels.

For the Surrey Quays Station upgrade, we manufactured the larch #glulam and spruce #CLT roof structure. With installation taking place during a 52-hour rail closure, the lattice roof was dry-fitted in our workshop to ensure everything fitted first time. #TimberEngineering

Latest progress on site in Somerset...The curved spruce #glulam roof structure is taking shape. It’s a tricky installation, but the Direct Installs team are making it look easy. Big thanks to Jack, Tom and Luc for their work on site.
