Laminated
Veneer Lumber
Delivering proven structural reliability and design versatility.
Sustainability Story
What is LVL?
Futurebuild® LVL is an engineered wood product made from multiple layers of wood veneer laminated together under precise factory conditions. Combined using heat and pressure, the result is a solid, consistent material that delivers proven structural reliability along with design versatility.
Our Products
hySPAN® laminated veneer lumber (LVL) provides a cost-effective solution with predictable performance in residential, commercial, rural and industrial construction applications.
hyJOIST® NZ made engineered I-Joists that are cost-effective* and lightweight for use in mid-floor joists and rafters in residential and commercial construction.
hyONE® is New Zealand's highest stiffness laminated veneer lumber (LVL) product and is ideally suited in applications where depth is restricted or when flitch beam or hot rolled steel section is required.
hy90® is a 90mm thick H1.2 treated product with all the benefits of LVL, targeted for use as lintels in residential framing.
hyCHORD® is a laminated veneer lumber (LVL) product ideal for truss chords in high-load applications where strength and predictable deflection performance are paramount. With hyCHORD, designers can confidently exploit the excellent strength properties for minimum sections, and then utilise the predicted deflection performance to apply just the right amount of camber to ensure flat ceilings and a no ‘dips or bumps’ roofline.
truFORM® is structural LVL specially manufactured for use in structural concrete formwork applications.
hyPLANK® is a strong, lightweight LVL scaffold plank. The defined structural properties of LVL and strict quality control processes make LVL an ideal choice for scaffold plank application.
edgeFORM® is a laminated veneer lumber (LVL) product manufactured from plantation timber veneers and assembled in a pre-defined pattern to be lighter, straighter and more uniform than traditional alternatives.
hyFRAME® is the ideal framing solution for both rural and light commercial buildings, including all manner of shed requirements and includes the LVL components as part of your total build system.
Timber Concrete Composite (TCC) Flooring systems from Futurebuild LVL optimise the advantages of both LVL beams and a concrete slab, combining both for a structural solution including inherent acoustic and fire advantage.
