Ultra Joist
Ultra Joist is a new, one-stop specification for the ultimate building timber. A high performance, solid timber construction joist, which is quality assured to provide specifiers and end users with consistency and complete confidence.
A host of product features and benefits ensure that Ultra Joist timbers provide a revolutionary, cost effective and environmentally advanced construction material. In recent years, due to ever-increasing demand for sustainable timber, the FSC (Forestry Stewardship Council) scheme has been established. This scheme provides certification to demonstrate a "chain of custody" from timber grower, to timber processor, through to the eventual end user of the timber. All Ultra Joists timbers are FSC certified to originate exclusively from these responsibly managed forestry resources.
"A quality driven production process to ensure a quality construction material".
Around the UK Ultra Joists are supplied on site at close to "in-service" moisture content, ensuring they are pre-conditioned to match the needs of any installation. Ultra Joists are available in standard lengths up to 6 metres, but can also be obtained finger-jointed in lengths up to 9 metres. The environmental and climatic benefits, strict engineering tolerances, treatment and weight savings, all ensure that Ultra Joist is the natural, cost-effective solution to the increasing demands of modern construction techniques.
- Produced exclusively from FSC sustainable timber.
- The manufacturing process is independently quality assured and controlled.
- Dimensional variability is reduced at source, so complying with the fixed tolerances stated in BS EN 336 T2.
- UltraJoists unique water repellent properties ensure no water absorption, meaning no strength loss.
- Shrinkage and its associated problems are substantially reduced.
- Low energy is used for production of a product that can be safely disposed of at the end of its serviceable life.
- Ultra Joists are uniform and assured machine strength graded products.
- Extremely cost effective construction material.
- The preservative is fully biodegradeable, conforms to the efficacy requirements of BS EN 599-1 / BS 8417 to give a 60 year service life and it does so using a very low uptake of treatment solution. This means we save water (up to 90% savings over some recognised treatments) and that the preservative has an insignificant effect on the moisture content of the superdry timber.
