Seismic safety and sustainability
Construction technology of wooden houses
In our realizations of wooden houses, we choose wood as a building material because of its extraordinary characteristics, which make it ideal for safe, durable, energy-efficient and sustainable buildings.
At present, there is no technology that makes it possible to build houses that are safe and in harmony with the environment, with zero environmental impact like those using wood.
The use of construction wood also expands the production chain, starting with the planting of trees, which help increase CO2 absorption and ensure a sustainable source of raw material for the future.
Why choose wood?
Wood has unique advantages:
-
High strength and low weight: It represents the quintessential earthquake-resistant material due to the best mass-to-strength ratio.
-
Excellent insulating properties: Allows the construction of load-bearing masonry with an exceptional degree of thermal insulation, as in the case of walls with 25 cm of rock wool integrated into 38 cm total, a result unthinkable with bricks or reinforced concrete, facilitating the construction of passive houses that require very little energy for heating.
-
Environmental sustainability: Using wood means promoting reforestation. Today, many areas in Europe are devoted to this activity, helping to remove CO2 from the atmosphere and, thus, combat climate change.
XLam Panel: The Ideal Solution for Sustainable Construction
Introduction to X Lam
The XLam panel is our strength: an innovative, extremely durable glulam panel that serves as a load-bearing structure for buildings. This material comes pre-cut and ready for assembly, ensuring rapid installation.
Flexibility and Customization
The constructive flexibility of XLam panels makes it possible to customize each project, creating architectural solutions that are perfectly integrated into the surrounding environment. Whether contemporary design or more traditional forms, XLam is the ideal choice for those seeking functionality and aesthetic cleanliness.
Interior and Upholstery
XLam panels are usually clad in plasterboard in interiors, allowing for the effective passage of plant conduits within the walls. However, in areas without installations, it is possible to leave the panels exposed to highlight the natural beauty of the wood.
Efficient Thermal Insulation
On the outside, XLam panels have an abundant layer of thermal insulation, made from biocompatible materials such as mineral wool or wood fiber. Thanks to this high insulation thickness, constructions made with XLam ensure almost total energy independence and the possibility of creating energy-efficient, environmentally sustainable passive wooden houses.
