CLT, being made from renewable wood sources, is considered a highly sustainable building material. Unlike concrete and steel, which have a significant carbon footprint due to their energy-intensive production processes, CLT has a much lower environmental impact. The material is carbon-neutral, and the wood used in CLT stores carbon dioxide absorbed during the growth of trees, which means CLT contributes to reducing the overall carbon footprint of a building. Furthermore, CLT is biodegradable and can be recycled at the end of its lifecycle, making it a key player in the global effort to transition to greener construction practices.
