As North America’s largest producer of Southern Yellow Pine glue-laminated beams (glulam), Anthony Forest Products Company, LLC (a Canfor Corporation company) engineered wood products operations offer a wide variety of glulam for commercial and residential applications.
Anthony Glulam is a glued laminated beam and header used where reliable engineered wood applications are required. It is an economical alternative to LVL and PSL for standard structural applications. The Anthony Glulam uses only locally available Southern pine lumber, and each piece is mechanically tested for strength and stiffness.
Anthony Glulam can be used for window, door and garage door headers, floor beams and roof ridge beams in both commercial and residential applications. Each beam is manufactured with a specific lumber lay-up combination which optimizes Glulam performance and efficiency. The highest strength lumber is reserved for the outer laminations with the highest tensile and compressive stresses.
PRG® is designed for use as window headers, garage door headers, portal frames and floor beams. PRG® offers simple, one-piece installation that’s more efficient than bolting or nailing multi-ply dimension or structural composite lumber members together.
PRG® matches I-Joist depths and nominal wall widths for flush framing and are manufactured in framing appearance grade. PRG® is manufactured with superior strength southern yellow pine MSR Lumber.
Power Preserved Glulam® offers fast, easy, one-piece installation that’s more efficient than bolting or nailing multi-ply dimension or structural composite lumber members together. Power Preserved Glulam® is offered in two preservative treatments: Clear-Guard™and Cop-Guard®.
Clear-Guard™ is a colorless, solvent-based (low odor mineral spirits) preservative system containing Permethrin(insecticide) and IPBC (fungicide) which are active components in EPA-registered pesticides. Clear-Guard™ treated wood is effective against mildew, mold, decay organisms and various termites, including the Formosan Termite in above ground (UC3) applications.
Cop-Guard® (Copper Naphthenate preservative) has a green color. Cop-Guard® treated wood products are available in a range of retentions for above ground use (UC3), ground contact (UC4) and severe exposure (UC4). It is effective against mildew, mold, decay organisms and various termites, including the Formosan Termite.
With a 25-year warranty from the treater, high strength-to-weight ratio, and long span capabilities, Power Preserved Glulam® is an excellent choice for decks, boardwalks, pergolas, covered porches and demanding environments such as bridges, highway sound barriers, railroad cross ties, and floating docks.
Power Column® compliments Mass Timber wood framing systems, and is available in a range of appearance grades for structural and architectural applications. Framing members such as Power Beam® can easily be attached to Power Column® with simple connection detailing.
Power Column® is a superior alternative for Tall Wall applications. For a cost-efficient, high-strength solution to your load-bearing structural applications, choose Power Column®.
