When our clients are planning a build and only a timber web joist will do, at Ochil Timber we proudly recommend FloorTrus. The FloorTrus timber web joist system is breaking new ground and is a product that we’ve suggested again and again – always with great results.
It is breaking new ground because of its flexibility, ease of use and robustness. A highly configurable solution that allows for large services to be installed in any position, it can be produced in depths ranging from 219mm to 600mm. One of the other great things about FloorTrus is how tough it is. In fact, its strength gives it real appeal both in transportation, in use and in dynamic loading situations – making it a real leader in its field.
Another important factor for many of our clients when choosing a timber web joist is the environmental friendliness of the product, and once again, FloorTrus delivers. At Ochil Timber we provide an option to choose home-grown Scottish timber in its production and cleverly used off-cuts in the webs, which means this product really does punch above its weight on the environmental front.
If you are on the lookout for a real alternative to concrete flooring, then FloorTrus ticks all the boxes.
