Wooden nails have a rich history dating back to ancient times. They were first used as a primitive innovation by early humans to join pieces of wood together. These early nails were simply sharpened sticks or wooden pegs that were hammered into place. The simplicity and effectiveness of wooden nails made them a popular choice for construction and woodworking projects.
Throughout history, wooden nails have been used in various cultures and civilizations. They were a common feature in ancient Egyptian and Roman construction, as well as in traditional Japanese carpentry. The use of wooden nails continued well into the Middle Ages, where they were widely employed in the construction of timber-framed buildings. This early form of joinery laid the foundation for the development of modern woodworking techniques and fastening options such as BECK’s LIGNOLOC® wooden nails.

Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) construction has seen a significant rise in popularity in recent years. This innovative building technique involves using multiple layers of wood panels that are glued together at right angles. The result is a strong and durable material that can be used for various applications in construction.
One of the main reasons for the rise of CLT construction is its environmental benefits. As concerns about climate change and sustainability continue to grow, architects, engineers, and builders are turning to CLT as an eco-friendlier alternative to traditional construction methods. BECK has responded to this concern with the LIGNOLOC® Wooden Nail System for sustainable fastening of CLT, LCLT, and NLT materials. Let’s explore more.
