A challenging restoration: from production to transport and installation.

Last week, we had the pleasure of celebrating two long-standing colleagues.

At KORLAM, we are particularly proud of our Chief Engineer, Bart Callewaert, who shares his vision on the future of timber construction and hybrid building in De Houten Pen by HoutConnect..

We are proud to announce that we have reached another important milestone: our glulam assembly line is now fully automated.

In our factory, we assemble these heavy structural elements down to the very last detail.

Two weeks ago, we shared the start of the installation of the timber load-bearing structure. Today, we can say it: the entire timber frame is now in place.

Following the successful completion of the first, lower canopy, we started work on the larger version this week.

Will you soon be able to spot us from the E403 in Roeselare? The assembly works for Climbing Hall Monoliet have officially started.

Now it's time to put down the pencils, machines and installation tools for a while. Korlam will be closed for its summer holiday from 18 July through 2 August.

This year marked the very first edition of the VT CUP organised by VT-Invest Construction Group

This is a technically highly challenging and unique project. Exactly the kind of structures we love: complex, high-quality and aesthetically outstanding.

Extreme temperatures require responsibility.

Last Friday, the Korlam team traded the drawing board and the production floor for a successful team-building day.

A few months ago, we proudly announced the start of the vertical extension of 𝗗𝗲 𝗡𝗶𝗲𝘂𝘄𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁 in Arnhem. Since then, this remarkable project has made significant progress.

Today we would like to put our colleague Ben in the spotlight.

In Terneuzen, we are currently building a new roof structure on an existing open industrial site, at a height of more than 24 metres, directly above operational installations and machinery.

Last Thursday was a special day at Korlam. After more than 25 years, our colleague Peter is retiring.

On behalf of Van Laere NV, we are working on transforming an open inner courtyard into a covered eye-catcher within the Newton project.

For us, this is not a slogan but a daily reality.

Many people associate wood with clean, straight beams, but as a production partner we like to show that glued laminated timber has virtually no limits.

Our research department attended the Rothoblaas Mass Timber seminar yesterday and today.

From Thursday 9 April, our office will be ready to assist you again, and from Monday 13 April, production will also be running at full speed once more!

For the new swimming complex, we supplied the glued laminated timber structure.

We are proud to share that the delivery of the timber structures for this beautiful project was successfully completed last week.
