Structural timber

Strength Graded Timber—natural building materials for structural applications

Around the world, developers, retailers, and manufacturers choose Stora Enso's premium structural timber from our slowly grown bio-diverse forests. Our extensive portfolio supports commercial, residential, educational, and industrial projects and includes CLS and TR26 timber, with award-winning results.

As a leading supplier, with 18 production units across Europe and an extensive global distribution network, we offer the opportunity to access stock and buy online through our MySupply portal. We consistently deliver sustainable top-grade raw materials with the highest mechanical strength values and aesthetics cut to nearly any specification, including C35 and C40.

We use the latest grading technology to sort our timber into standardized classes, so selecting the best raw material with minimal handling costs and waste is easy. When building load-bearing structures, our expert grading also provides a highly accurate basis for choosing the most suitable wood based on strength, rigidity, and appearance that can also be cut to light to no-wane specifications.
