CLT (Cross Laminated Timber) panels are used to build ecological greenhouses.

Modern CLT technology involves layering wood boards in alternating directions and bonding them under pressure. This method yields panels with excellent thermal insulation properties, making them highly valued in colder climates—a key market for PMtech. The bonding uses a polyurethane adhesive free from harmful formaldehyde or solvents.

CLT serves as a sustainable alternative to concrete, allowing for rapid construction of apartment buildings with minimal equipment. Structures made from CLT panels have demonstrated durability and can last over 100 years. These materials are sought after for their earthquake resistance, environmental benefits, and strength.

Our company offers top-quality engineering services, leveraging the latest technologies to meet customer needs. We can support you through the entire process of designing CLT buildings, from initial concept to final construction.
