Process

Ezee Edge Joists are produced from carefully selected certified logs, once milled selected joists are kilned in high performance kilns. Moisture content is constantly monitored and carefully reduced over a period of 4 to 5 days.

This process reduces the moisture content to around 18%, joists are allowed to cure for a further 24 hours before further processing.

Trained grading operators then visually assess each piece of timber, timber meeting the strict quality requirements is then machine strength graded to BS EN 519 C16 grade and planed all round resulting in our distinctive Ezee-Edge look. The grading process is independently audited to ensure high customer confidence in our product.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to the product being reduced in size we have printed a Span Table below showing the spans for both the original 47mm product and the new 44mm. Please refer to this before ordering. *C24 Span Table available on request.
