On the back of announcing a record number of contracts wins - the X-LAM Alliance has confirmed their attendance at Timber Expo 2013.
Formed in 2011, the X-LAM Alliance formalises a long standing working relationship between B & K Structures, the UK's leading solid timber structural engineering contractor and Binderholz, who in 2012 produced the most Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) in the world.
Bringing to the UK construction market a seamless and consistent way to supply CLT, the partnership provides two experts in manufacture, design and construction coming together to deliver solid timber buildings with fully integrated turnkey packages.
Speaking on behalf of the Alliance, Managing Director, Nick Milestone said: "Timber Expo has international appeal and with the move to the NEC this year, will attract more visitors from across the UK, Europe and beyond. By exhibiting at the event we are aiming to promote our award winning services to a wider audience.
"Recent contract wins have resulted in 50% growth on the same trading period last year, clearly demonstrating the demand for Cross Laminated Timber is rapidly increasing as the construction industry recognises its aesthetic qualities and multiple benefits."
With award-winning buildings in education, healthcare, commercial, residential, transport, sports and leisure facilities - the X-LAM Alliance attributes this success to delivering exceptional projects, bringing schemes in on time and within budget.

Organisers of Timber Expo announced earlier this year that the event will be ‘stepping up a gear' and relocating to the NEC Birmingham on the 24 & 25 September 2013.
Timber Expo event director, Loretta Sales commented: "As one of the leading CLT innovators, we are delighted to welcome the X-LAM Alliance to Timber Expo this year as a Silver sponsor. Visitors can meet the team on Stand A28 and hear first-hand about their ground-breaking projects and services. X-LAM Alliance personnel will also be delivering presentations in our very popular Timber Talks seminar session. This year's show will profile the full range of timber technologies and wood products available on the global market, and the widest display of new and innovative applications for timber within the built environment."
