Masonite Beams

Masonite Beams manufactures and sells modern, customised, ef cient wood-based I-beam systems and technical solutions. All production is located at Rundvik, near Umeå in Northern Sweden. Our I-beams have clear environmental and energy bene ts and are well known for being lightweight, strong and straight! More than half our production is exported to countries such as Norway, Estonia, the UK and France, while a large proportion of the beams sold in Sweden go to house- builders and industrial construction com- panies. Our history goes back 150 years to the Nordmaling Steam Sawmill, in its time one of the rst sawmill companies. Masonite Beams was set up in 1974 as the world's rst industrial manufacturer of I-beams. Product development and innovation have characterised our history, and to- day Masonite Beams is one of the leading manufacturers of I-beams, with the most modern beam factory in Europe.

Skidstahus chooses Masonite lightweight beams

For more than 70 years, Skidstahus has combined craftsmanship tradition with forward-looking innovation. Now they are taking another step forward by introducing Masonite lightweight beams into their building systems – a strategic decision that brings together technical ambition with value-driven development. For Skidstahus, the choice of Masonite lightweight beams is also about sustainability and locally sourced materials.

“We use timber from northern Sweden, often from nearby forests, which further reduces the climate footprint,” says Martin Lindström.

The collaboration with Masonite Beams has developed into a close partnership, where both parties drive progress forward.

“We made an inspiring study visit where we saw how you can build with straight and long beams. It felt natural to start a collaboration where we can achieve an efficient and sustainable building system without increasing costs,” says Kalle Holmlund.
