California-based Katerra plans to open a new factory in Spokane Valley, Washington, where it will produce mass timber products including cross-laminated timber (CLT) and glulam.

With its new 250,000ft2 mass timber manufacturing facility, Katerra is helping to scale the production of CLT in the US so that the material can be more broadly adopted across the construction industry.

Through its end-to-end construction services model, Katerra will supply much of the CLT to projects where it will also serve as architect and contractor.

One of Katerra’s first local Spokane-area CLT projects will be the construction of the new Hospitality Center in association with the Community Cancer Fund, Ronald McDonald House and Kootenai Health (Walden House).

Construction of the factory is scheduled to begin by Q1, 2018.
