best wood KVH Our solid structural timber

Solid structural timber - KVH® for short - is the material for modern timber constructions made of finger-jointed spruce.

Because safety is particularly important with KVH®, we pay special attention to quality. That is why we are also a member of the KVH® monitoring association with constant neutral monitoring by the MPA Stuttgart.

As KVH® sleepers, Douglas fir finger-jointed NSI, it is ideal for building balconies, terraces, bridges and much more.
