Crosslam® matting promotes a clean environment and minimized environmental footprint

Our mass timber products are made of renewable and sustainable material

Structurlam promotes the use of wood as a renewable and sustainable material and uses only raw material from timber harvested from certified sustainably managed timberlands.

Our products are sold globally and manufactured locally

Structurlam’s products are used across borders. We are proud to purchase lumber for our CrossLam® matting from the following Canadian suppliers; Interfor, Tolko, Canfor, Millar Western, and West Fraser.

All of these suppliers are either SFI or FSC certified. For more information on SFI programs visit their website.

We promote reduced environmental impact in the CrossLam® matting manufacturing process

Structurlam aims to mitigate the environmental impacts of our matting manufacturing process and exceed all regulations regarding waste material:

  • We utilize waste fibre as biofuel and are always looking to incorporate environmental aspects into our product development.
  • All of our matting products are produced with Lumber Purchased from SFI or FSC Certified Mills.
  • All of our products are engineered with low VOC, exterior grade adhesives which contain no added urea-formaldehyde and deemed to be inert, creating no impact to the environment.

Structurlam’s Crosslam® matting leads to cost savings

Differentiate your company through huge freight savings with our matting

Shipping costs are significantly lower for CrossLam® matting. Let’s say you wanted to ship 1,000 access mats from Edmonton to Fort McMurray.

  • If you used oak mats which weigh 3,000 lbs/mat, your total shipping cost would be approximately $64,000.
  • If you used Fir mats which weigh 1,975 lbs/mat, your total cost would be approximately $42,000.
  • If you used CrossLam® mats which only weigh 1,150 lbs/mat, your costs would be $24,000.

Choose CrossLam® matting to cut your shipping costs by 60%!

These are savings that only compound themselves over the life-cycle of the CrossLam® access mat.
