Timber is a natural and organic material, it comes from the trunks of the trees, that are living organisms that are born, grow up and dye, following a life cycle that has repeated itself for centuries and centuries.
1. The possibility to cultivate wood trees allows us to consider timber an inexhaustible raw material.
2. The modern timberworking and gluing techniques have allowed the timber industry to reduce the reproduction cycle time.
3. Timberworking techniques do not produce atmospheric and environmental pollution.
4. If compared with other materials, such as reinforced concrete, steel and aluminium, timberworking techniques are more energy-saving.
5. The lightness of timber Kg/m3 500 and its optimal resistance/weight ratio allow Canducci Group to realize structural elements of great dimension, thus reducing the number of transports -generally by road- from the industrial plants to the building yards.
6. The fire resistance of timber removes the need to use chemical varnish.
7. A correct planning stage procedure allows Canducci to lighten the structures and the foundations and to ensure an excellent earthquake-proof performance.
8. Glulam structures can be taken down, recovered and recycled.
