How we work

From a span on a sketch, to a structure on site

The plant

Siliguri, West Bengal

A press line, clamping jigs for curved members up to 2.2 m chord, and a finishing floor — under one roof, so nothing leaves the site half-made.

Engagement

Two ways to work with us

Option A

Supply to specification

You have drawings and a structural engineer. We manufacture the members to grade and geometry, source the connection hardware, and deliver to site.

Shop drawingsManufactureConnections sourcedDelivery
Option B

Design, supply & install

You have an intent and a site. We take it from structural design through manufacture to an erected structure, with our installation partners on site.

The journey

Six stages, start to finish

01

Enquiry & feasibility

We look at span, loading, geometry and location, and tell you quickly whether glulam is the right material and roughly what it will cost.

You provideA sketch, a span, a location. Drawings if you have them.
02

Structural design

Our engineers, working with structural engineers in Europe, size the members and resolve the connections.

You provideArchitectural intent, loading criteria, applicable code requirements.
03

Shop drawings

Every member is drawn with its connections and dimensions, and issued for your approval before anything is cut.

You provideReview and written approval. Changes after this stage cost time.
04

Manufacture

Grading, finger jointing, pressing and finishing at Siliguri, with testing before despatch.

You provideNothing — this is our part. We report progress against the programme.
05

Delivery

Members are protected, loaded and routed to site, long members included.

You provideConfirmed site access, offloading capability and a delivery window.
06

Installation

Erected by our installation partners, or handed to your contractor with full drawings and a method statement.

You providePrepared foundations or supporting structure, and site clearance to work.
Delivery

Siliguri to site

Our plant sits in Siliguri, which puts the North-East, Sikkim, Bhutan and the eastern corridor within straightforward reach. We also deliver across India, and have members under discussion for projects in Mumbai, Pune, Nashik and Noida.

Long members change the logistics rather than prevent them. An 18 metre beam travels as an over-length load and needs a route, a delivery window and room to offload. We plan that with you at quotation stage, not after the members are pressed.

Ask us earlyRoute and access are cheaper to solve on a drawing than on a delivery day.
