Laminated veneer lumber (LVL) represents one of the widely used engineered wood products, which is made using sliced and peeled thin wood veneers. It is a lightweight construction material that finds application in public buildings, industrial warehouses, product components, large-prefabricated buildings, and customized wooden houses. This can be accredited to its durability, uniformity, high strength, and dimensional precision. Besides this, it is also used for structural framing in commercial and residential construction, which includes joists, beams, lintels, purlins, concrete formwork, truss chords, and scaffold boards.
Due to inflating income levels and the growing global population, there is a rise in the uptake of new construction projects in the residential, commercial, and infrastructural sectors. This represents one of the key factors strengthening the growth of the market. Moreover, structures built with LVL require a short construction period than traditional materials, such as concrete and bricks, which is positively influencing the overall sales. This can be attributed to its easy and faster installation and reduced time of shrinkage. Apart from this, LVL is made with heavy-duty glue that adds stability and strength and offers advantages such as waterproofing and resistance to rot, insects, and mold, which is creating a positive market outlook. Furthermore, as the production process of LVL is environment friendly, governments of numerous countries are encouraging end users to shift towards these wood panels. The ongoing research undertaken by leading players to explore the feasibility of manufacturing LVL using different materials is also fueling the market growth.
The residential sector holds the largest market share on account of the increasing utilization of LVL as a bearing structure in roofs, walls and floors.
Presently, the new construction sector accounts for the majority of the total market share. This can be accredited to the expanding application of LVL in beams, purlins, lintels, formwork, and truss chords.
At present, North America enjoys the leading position in the market due to the rising number of new residential housing projects, especially in the United States.
