Manufacturing excellence
Our manufacturing facility operates around the clock with advanced production technology, producing engineered timber products designed for consistency, reliability and Australian construction conditions.
Wesbeam is Australia’s sole manufacturer of both laminated veneer lumber (LVL) and I-joists. Privately owned and founded in 2001, the company operates a state-of-the-art, world-scale manufacturing facility in Neerabup, Western Australia, built and commissioned in 2004.
The plant runs 24/7 for up to 362 days each year, supplying high-performance engineered wood products to builders, timber merchants, frame and truss manufacturers, architects and engineers nationwide. A fully integrated supply chain, local expertise and a national distribution network - Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane - ensure fast, reliable service. The business employs just under 300 FTEs.
Wesbeam’s manufacturing is underpinned by a long-term timber supply agreement with the Western Australian Government, providing secure, sustainably sourced plantation timber to support consistent production. Products are engineered for structural integrity and long lengths and are supplied treated as standard, with optional H2 and H3 LOSP treatments for specific applications.
Our Structural Engineering + Design Division partners with customers from early planning through delivery, supporting thousands of projects each year with efficient, buildable solutions.
Wesbeam has been widely recognised for its operational excellence and strong industry relationships. Safety and people sit at the centre of our culture.
Looking ahead, ongoing investment in plant, automation and sustainability initiatives continue to lift productivity and help meet Australia’s housing and infrastructure needs in the years ahead.
Backed by nearly 100 years of combined timber and manufacturing experience, our leadership team brings the proven knowledge, expertise and industry insight that continue to shape Wesbeam’s success.
Our approach
Australian trees, Australian LVL
Wesbeam’s approach to sustainability starts with the responsible use of timber as a renewable resource. By manufacturing engineered timber products in Western Australia, we have greater visibility across our supply chain and the materials used in our products.
Our local manufacturing operations support the sustainable use of timber resources, converting plantation-grown timber into high-performance structural EWP products.
Wesbeam maintains chain of custody certification across its timber supply chain, providing assurance around the responsible sourcing and traceability of the materials used in our products. Combined with environmental documentation such as Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), this helps customers make informed decisions about the materials they specify and the role engineered timber can play in more sustainable construction.
