Finger jointed materials are manufactured by gluing together pieces of timber that have been notched along a comb-toothed pattern. As a result of this process the dimensional deformations are minimized in comparison to ordinary sawn timber.
– especially in conditions where there exist wide variations in interior and ambient temperatures.
Primary lengths: from 1750 mm to 6000 mm (spaced around 30 cm apart). All materials are four-sided and planed.
