TEKCOM have manufactured an order of 83mm LVL for Japanese Steel Manufacturing
TEKCOM, a leading manufactuer of innovative and preferred wood products in Vietnam, is proud to have manufactured its first order of customized LVL (Laminated Veneer Lumber) with thickness of 83mm for a Japanese Steel Manufacturing.
TEKCOM, a leading manufactuer of innovative and preferred wood products in Vietnam, is proud to have successfully manufactured its first order of customized LVL (Laminated Veneer Lumber) with thickness of 83mm for a Japanese Steel Manufacturing. This 83mm LVL is used as dunnage in spreading the steel’s load uniformly in relation to the ship’s structure and, providing frictional resistance.
TEKCOM’s LVL is chosen over solid timber dunnage since it does not need to meet the provisions of the ISPM 15 standard, which directly addresses the need to treat wood materials of a thickness greater than 6mm, used to ship products between countries. Also, recovery rate of LVL (>90%) is higher than solid timber (<60%), and it could survive heavy load but still stay in good shape.
With such specific requirements, the order has been well-studied and discussed. Eventually, the 83mm LVL is manufactured with 100% plantation hardwood to its composition, highly-performing and low-emission adhesive. Sample of the orders are being tested and inspected so by the Japanese Manufacturer before delivering to Japan.
The order has been made in early Q3/2019.
