We're proud to announce a new specialized glulam manufacturing facility at Spearhead.
This $60 million expansion will serve the full range of our work — from technically advanced freeform structures to high-end residential and commercial builds.
We've partnered with Ledinek Engineering to deliver a first-of-its-kind glulam line producing zero-VOC softwood, mixed-species, and hardwood glulam in straight, curved, and double-curved layups up to 80 feet in length. We've also selected Hundegger to deliver advanced CNC machining platforms, expanding on our existing machining depth.
Construction is nearing completion, and the Ledinek equipment is being commissioned now, with glulam production beginning in Q1 2027.
We're expanding our capacity and evolving our capabilities to push the possibilities of timber construction. Let's build your most ambitious projects together.

“Spearhead’s expansion is a powerful example of what happens when innovation, skilled workers, and B.C. wood come together. Their new $60‑million facility will help anchor B.C. as a global leader in mass timber, while creating more than 60 new, good-paying jobs in the Kootenays. It is an important focus of our Look West strategy, which sets a 10-year target of tripling the amount of B.C. wood used in construction to support forward-looking manufacturers, like Spearhead, who are strengthening local supply chains, adding value to our forest sector, and building a cleaner, more sustainable economy for people across B.C.”
