Why Mass Timber Makes Sense
Timberlab is proud to help accelerate the adoption of mass timber - a natural material with many benefits.
Mass timber is a smart, resilient, and renewable alternative. This natural material provides construction efficiency, environmental benefits, and a positive impact on occupants.
Low Carbon Footprint
As a renewable material, mass timber is better than energy-intensive concrete and steel.
Sequesters carbon in the building
Protects long-term forest health
Ties building to the local area
High Community Impact
Mass timber creates warm interior spaces that connect occupants with nature.
Provides cognitive & health benefits
Supports rural lumber economies
Sparks critical conversations about natural resources
For owners and developers, mass timber makes projects pencil.
Build Faster for Less
Secure occupancy and long-term leases with speed. Prefabricated timber buildings significantly reduce construction time so you can get to market faster.
Offer a New Ideal
Provide a better end-user experience and it’ll pay dividends. Natural materials improve health and wellness, increase productivity, and reduce stress.
Leave a Lighter Footprint
Increase density while minimizing the environmental impact. Timber offsets emissions associated with energy-intensive construction and stores carbon in the structure.
