ZAZA TIMBER Production manufactures glued laminated timber structures (glulam) for construction companies worldwide. We specialize in project-based manufacturing, and produce straight and curved glulam structures measuring up to 32 metres. Central to our ability to deliver prefabricated structures is a range of postproduction services: large-format CNC processing, installation of steel parts, surface treament and finishing – all done in our factory in Latvia.
Glulam manufacturing projects from A to Z.
We complete client orders of any difficulty from A to Z, with a great variety of details, from simple ones to those for which we need to use special manufacturing, coupling and finishing solutions. As a result, construction is fast, simple, exact and saves time and money.
We manufacture glulam beams and block glued glulam up to 32 m long and 2.1 m in height
We manufacture curved glulam beams and block glued glulam with constant and varied radii > 2.5 m.
We can produce the most complex details from computer files using a fully-automated large format 5-axis CNC.
We install connecting parts made of steel: fixtures, joints, shear keys.
Surface treatment for fire safety and protection against the elements: various technologies including pressure treatment.
We produce glulam parts with inclines on several planes, as well as variable inclines, spherical surfaces and even free-form curves.
We have ISO 9001:2015 quality management system in place.
We manufacture spruce, pine and larch structures which comply with the requirements of EN14080:2013, with a range of strength classes from GL20h to GL32.
We have a certified Environmental Product Declaration (Nr S-P-04453)
The company has implemented ISO 9001:2015 quality management system, LEAN principles and EN 14080 production standards. We sort through all our timber before processing to ensure that we only use materials that match the client’s strength class needs and visual requirements. To ensure quality, we undergo regular testing: finger joint tensile strength testing, shear tests and delamination tests. Independent auditors regularly audit our adherence to quality systems.
We use the latest Ledinek and Sarmax equipment for gluing and planing.
For processing, we use fully-automated high-capacity large format wood processing equipment—Technowood CNC—which can manufacture the most complex details with high precision in accordance with the manufacturing computer files. The machine works on five axes and drills, cuts, saws and sands with high precision.
For gluing, we use the latest Purbond and Akzo Nobel glues.
ZAZA TIMBER Production SIA is part of the ZAZA Group which also includes timber structure engineering and construction companies.
ZAZA TIMBER Production was founded in 2015, and operated under the name IKTK until 2021. In this year, we formed ZAZA TIMBER, a unified brand for construction, manufacture and design, and IKTK changed its name to ZAZA TIMBER Production. The letters A and Z in the name point to the wide range of services we offer: a full service cycle from A to Z.
We have manufactured structures for transport, pedestrian and ski bridges, manufacturing, office and residential buildings, schools, libraries, sports facilities, restaurants, hotels, concert halls, churches, barracks, hangars, petrol stations and EV charging stations. They are located in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Iceland, Germany, Spain, Russia, Lithuania, Latvia, the U.S., Qatar, South Korea and the Netherlands. See some of our works here.
Our factory employs more than 40 people. Get to know our management team.
