Glued laminated timber
Glued laminated timber as grandstand flooring – high-quality wood material for walking and seating surfaces from Bender
What is glued laminated timber used in grandstand construction?
Glued laminated timber (glulam) consists of several wood lamellae bonded together under pressure. This layered structure results in significantly higher dimensional stability, load-bearing capacity, and weather resistance than solid wood. In grandstand construction, glulam is used as decking for walking and seating surfaces because it offers a pleasant feel and is durable.
Glued laminated timber decking in the Bender system
Bender Tribünen uses laminated timber as the standard material for high-quality grandstand decking. The wooden planks are supplied in standardized widths and thicknesses, are designed to fit the modular grandstand system, and feature a weather-resistant impregnation and slip-resistant profiles. Laminated timber decking offers an elegant appearance and is equally suitable for sporting and cultural events.
Glued laminated timber vs. screen printing plates
Laminated timber planks have a more elegant look and are recommended for high-end events. Birch plywood panels are more robust and even more slip-resistant – ideal for outdoor events in changeable weather.
Care and maintenance
Laminated timber decking is easy to clean. After the event, it is dried, inspected for damage, and replaced if necessary. Bender maintains the decking system as part of its grandstand service.
