Collaboration with TimberHP: Driving Green Innovation

Our involvement with TimberHP, a leader in wood fiber insulation (WFI), highlights our commitment to sustainable building solutions. We are proud to have supplied TimberHP with the batt manufacturing line for their Madison, ME plant—the first of its kind in North America. TimberHP’s products, including batt and loose-fill insulation, are helping lead the shift toward carbon-neutral building materials​

Why Mass Timber+ is Crucial for the Industry

This conference is a vital platform for anyone connected to industrialized construction, from architects to engineers and manufacturers. Key focus areas include:

➡️ Mass Timber and Offsite Construction: Offering faster, more cost-effective, and sustainable building methods.

➡️ Labor Solutions and Automation: Addressing labor shortages with innovative factory automation technologies, which Globe specializes in​.
.
➡️ Reducing Embodied Carbon: Mass timber projects significantly reduce carbon emissions compared to traditional materials like concrete and steel, a critical topic for the future of construction​
.
At Booth #438, our leadership team will be available to discuss how our automation solutions, such as our robotic plywood handling systems, are transforming the timber industry. We’ll also delve into our continued partnership with TimberHP and how our solutions drive building materials’ sustainability. Benefits of Wood Fiber Insulation Blog Post
