Glulam Log Cabins
Frequently Asked Questions
What range of glulam structures does Eurodita supply for B2B dealers across residential and leisure applications?
Eurodita's glulam range covers full residential houses, contemporary architectural glulam homes, and relocatable mobile timber units. Each application is configured at order stage based on the dealer's end-use brief and applicable building regulations. Glulam construction supports permanent residential habitation, holiday park accommodation, and architectural design-led residential projects. Configuration is confirmed at order specification stage. See private-label manufacturing for related context.
How does glulam construction differ from solid log construction for residential applications?
Glulam construction uses laminated timber beams produced by bonding parallel-grain wood layers under controlled factory conditions. Solid log construction uses single-piece timber walls. The differences relate to dimensional stability characteristics, structural span capability without internal columns, consistency of thermal performance across the building envelope, and behaviour under seasonal humidity changes. Dealers advise customers on construction type based on the end-use requirements. See residential log cabins range for related context.
What B2B dealer profile typically sells Eurodita glulam homes successfully?
Successful glulam dealers typically operate in the architect-aware residential construction market, with established relationships with local planning consultants, building control officers, and design professionals. Dealers who present detailed structural specifications, engineering documentation, and professional visualisations convert glulam enquiries more effectively than dealers presenting glulam as commodity garden structures. The category supports premium pricing and complex sales cycles. See dealer programme for related context.
How does Eurodita's private-label glulam programme work for dealers building branded residential ranges?
All Eurodita glulam structures ship under the dealer's brand with no Eurodita markings on product, documentation, or packaging. The dealer's logo and identity appear on engineering drawings, technical documentation, assembly guides, and warranty paperwork. Dealers building a branded glulam residential range receive consistent branding across the full configuration spectrum. Eurodita has operated this private-label model since 1994 across 98+ active B2B partners. See certifications and standards for related context.
What lead time should dealers anticipate for standard versus bespoke glulam home orders?
Standard glulam configurations follow Eurodita's standard production schedule, with specific lead time confirmed at order acceptance. Bespoke glulam designs follow Eurodita's standard bespoke production route, typically 4 to 8 weeks plus any additional engineering or specification confirmation time. Dealers should anticipate longer lead times for highly custom designs requiring iterative engineering review. Lead time is confirmed in writing at order confirmation. See dealer resources for related context.

FAQs
Why should I choose Glulam logs over standard solid timber logs?
Glulam (Glued Laminated Timber) is the superior choice for residential projects requiring long-term stability. Unlike solid logs, which can shrink and settle by up to 10%, Glulam is engineered to remain dimensionally stable. This means no settling, no twisting, and no "checking" (cracks), ensuring that windows, doors, and internal joinery function perfectly for decades without adjustment.
What wall thickness options are available for Glulam houses?
We manufacture a versatile range of Glulam profiles to suit everything from garden offices to luxury homes. Our standard Glulam thicknesses are **70mm, 88mm, 135mm, 180mm, and 220mm**. For permanent residential use in colder climates, we strongly recommend choosing 135mm or thicker logs to maximise thermal efficiency and structural rigidity.
Can you manufacture bespoke designs from my architect's drawings?
Yes, bespoke manufacturing is our speciality. Because Glulam allows for longer spans without internal support columns, it is ideal for custom, open-plan modern designs. Simply send us your floor plans or sketches, and our team will produce professional 3D models and manufacturing blueprints tailored to your exact requirements within 24 hours.
Are Glulam log houses suitable for year-round permanent living?
Absolutely. In fact, they are the industry standard for modern timber living. When built with our thicker Glulam logs (such as 180mm or 220mm) and paired with our premium double-glazed windows and roof insulation, these houses meet high energy efficiency standards. The tight, precision-engineered fit of Glulam logs also eliminates drafts, making them comfortable in all seasons.
How does the assembly speed compare to traditional construction?
Assembly is significantly faster. Our Glulam kits arrive as a complete flat-pack system with every log numbered and pre-cut on unparalleled computerised machinery (CNC). This precision means there is no on-site cutting or modification required. A professional team can assemble the weathertight shell of a Glulam house in a fraction of the time it takes to build a brick or block structure, saving you substantial labour costs.
