Exciting Opportunities with wood
Wood has truly gained a place as a material in construction projects, not only as cladding, but also as an essential part of the load-bearing structure in the form of CLT elements.
Using wood in structures requires a high level of expertise. We therefore constantly follow developments in the area and learn from the projects we build, so that we have the skills to carry out complex wooden constructions, such as Håndværkskollegiet in Horsens, where wood and CLT play a crucial role in the realization of the architectural visions.
Certified construction
The use of certified wood can be one of many means of reducing a building's CO2 footprint and obtaining certification. To achieve the desired certification, wood can be worked with as a recurring material, both outdoors and indoors. This is the case with projects such as Trærækkerne and Åens Hus in the new district of Trælasten in Aarhus. In these two projects, the use of wood goes a step further by, for example, reusing glulam beams for walls and floor decks in the construction.

„In connection with the construction of Håndværkskollegiet, we have had to consider many special ties and connections in relation to quality, process and deliveries, among other things. All the challenges we have encountered along the way, Nordstern has solved professionally and up-front.“
