Dowel Laminated Timber panels manufactured from sustainably sourced Northern California forests. No adhesives. No metal fasteners. Full traceability from forest to finished product.
DLT is a mass timber panel made by stacking softwood lumber and friction-fitting the boards together with hardwood dowels. No adhesives, no metal fasteners — just wood.
With all wood fiber oriented in the direction of the primary span, DLT offers greater structural efficiency than CLT for one-way spans. Panels can be precision-milled with CNC for service channels, acoustic profiles, and custom connections.
A mass timber product that delivers on structural performance, sustainability, and constructability.
Optimized for one-way spans with all fiber oriented in the load direction. Lighter than steel and concrete, reducing foundation requirements.
Free from structural adhesives and volatile organic compounds. Healthier indoor air quality through biophilic design with exposed wood surfaces.
Wood stores carbon for the life of the building while reducing reliance on carbon-intensive steel and concrete manufacturing.
A 5-person crew can erect over 2,000 sqft per day. Just-in-time deliveries minimize site staging and neighborhood impact.
Meets Type IV Heavy Timber requirements of the IBC. Tested assemblies achieve up to 2-hour Fire Resistance Rating with 2x6 DLT panels.
Full traceability from forest to finished panel. FSC-certified timber sourced from private, tribal, and public lands across Northern California.
As part of the Schmidbauer Group, MRMT controls every step from timber harvest to finished DLT panel delivery.
Timber sourced from forest health projects, tribal lands, and private timberlands across Northern California under rigorous forest practice rules.
Logs processed at Schmidbauer Group sawmills, converting small-diameter timber into dimensional lumber graded for structural performance.
Lumber is stacked and joined with hardwood dowels in our facility in Korbel, CA. CNC-milled to project specifications with factory-applied sheathing.
Flat-packed panels delivered just-in-time to the construction site, ready for rapid erection as prefabricated floor, roof, wall, and beam elements.
DLT's simple design accepts a wider range of species and grades than adhesive-bonded products, supporting diverse forest management outcomes.
Every MRMT panel supports forest health, reduces embodied carbon, and aligns with California's groundbreaking AB 2446 legislation.
DLT utilizes small-diameter timber from forest thinning projects, reducing fuel loads and wildfire risk across California.
California's new embodied carbon mandates target 20% GHG reduction by 2030. Locally produced DLT is a practical path to compliance.
No adhesives means DLT can be reused, disassembled, burned for energy, or composted at end-of-life. True circular building material.
All products sourced under California's rigorous forest practice rules from private, tribal, and public lands.
Wood sequesters carbon for the entire lifespan of the building, offsetting emissions from construction.
California is leading the nation in reducing embodied carbon in construction. MRMT DLT helps project teams meet these new requirements.
