Features
6% more GIA (SHAB) compared to mineral based benchmark due to thinner external walls (same U value)
Practical completion approximately 11 weeks earlier than benchmark.
Construction phase at least 30% shorter (-14 weeks) than the benchmark.
Prefabricated timber frame envelope to maximize the level of industrialization.
Significant time reduction on site by high degree of prefabrication
Increase and assure quality, i.e. of the envelope, by high degree of prefabrication
Mass timber core and compartment walls for horizontal stabilization, fire safety and acoustic performance
Long spans, up to 7-8 meters room width without intermediate supports
Sylva™ by Stora Enso
Sylva is Stora Enso’s range of prefabricated wood-based products for low-carbon buildings. The Sylva kit includes everything needed to create a modern, sustainable wood structure.
Our custom-made elements, (Sylva Walls, Sylva Floors and Roofs, Sylva Stairs and Sylva Beams and Columns) optimise the use of sustainable wood to suit any application and requirement. And of course, we ensure your delivery arrives on-site ready to install, just-in-time (JIT).
Experience how easy it can be to construct with wood and choose Sylva for your next building project!
SylvaTM by Stora Enso is currently only available in Europe and Australia.
Why wood?
Wooden industrial buildings offer you the most sustainable low-carbon alternative on the market and are also known to improve wellbeing and productivity.
Our concepts show you a range of solutions that are cost-efficient to construct using a combination of massive-engineered wood products. The solutions are flexible and modular and designed for manufacture and assembly (DfMA). They can even be made for disassembly and reassembly at the end of life.
The benefits of building with wood
60% lower embodied carbon compared to the EU benchmark
Smooth process–designed for manufacture and assembly (DfMA)
Can also be designed for disassembly and reassembly: improving profitability
Increased wellbeing and productivity in wooden buildings
Cost-competitive
Innovative timber-based components from sustainably managed forests
Eight industry-proven solutions for every scale, need and looks
