Kerto® LVL Q-panel is a smart choice for roof and floor structures

In GREY-Linden's renovation project, heavy steel-containing elements were replaced with wood, and a new timber-framed building was built. Metsä Wood's Kerto® LVL Q-panel products were used in floor and roof structures that were left visible, giving the interior a warm, stylistic and pleasant atmosphere.

Advantages of Kerto LVL Q-panels

39 and 45 mm thick Q-panels are quick and easy to handle and install on the construction site while ensuring extremely stiff roof and floor structures. Kerto LVL Q-panels also have good fire protection. This is due to the quality and density of the Nordic wood, giving it a good charring rate. In addition, Q-panels are designed to meet the requirements for fire protection of REI 30.

Kerto LVL products are extremely material-efficient meaning less wood is needed in volume compared to other wood materials. With Kerto LVL, you can build thin and open structures without compromising the strength of the structures. Metsä Wood delivered Q-panel products for this project in customized length which means waste was reduced to nearly 0 %. Q-panels are available in various thicknesses (27 – 75 mm), widths (200 – 2 500 mm) and lengths (2 000 mm – 25 000 mm).
