The Modern Timber Construction System

Officially approved by the building authorities and ideal for erecting healthy homes and buildings using environmentally friendly solid timber construction methods: that’s the SWISS KRONO MAGNUMBOARD® OSB system. Wood, a natural raw material, meets innovative technology to combine the benefits of single-skin solid construction with those of traditional timber construction, thus avoiding problematic aspects such as joints, transitions between different materials, entrapped moisture and long construction times.

Large, prefabricated and extremely dimensionally stable walls, ceilings and roof elements can be simply and flexibly created with dimensions up to 18 x 2.8m. The end result is lastingly windtight buildings with a minimum of joints. As the SWISS KRONO MAGNUMBOARD^® OSB system involves extensive prefabrication, it even lets complex and sophisticated modern architectural concepts be realised in a minimum of time. The system leaves no wishes unmet, whether it is used on its own as a complete building solution or combined with other construction methods.

The storey-high formats can be taken advantage of to erect buildings with only a single SWISS KRONO MAGNUMBOARD^® OSB panel on each side. The system delivers all of the advantages of conventional solid timber wall, ceiling and roof construction while enabling major gains in efficiency and cost savings. It is even approved for buildings up to 13m high, units with up to 400m² of floor space, subterranean structures and various other less-common building types.
