widely used in commercial buildings but is only recently gaining traction in residential construction. “We started using CLT in 2017, and since then we’ve done numerous builds with it,” Payton explains.“It’s our specialty now.” CLT panels are engineered off-site and arrive ready to assemble, significantly reducing build time while improving precision and minimizing waste. This technology aligns with AJP’s values, both in terms of quality and sustainability. “There’s far less on-site labour required, and because everything is prefabricated, there’s a lot less waste,” Payton says. “Plus, CLT is carbon negative—it stores more carbon than it emits in its production and installation. That’s a big win for sustainability.” 17 BUSINESS VIEW OCEANIA VOLUME 07, ISSUE 05 AJP CONSTRUCTIONS
