Mass Timber Technologies (MTT) is a timber prefabrication company, specialising in the manufacture and supply of large scale, complex building components for use in construction applications. At our facility in Johannesburg, raw lumber is graded, shaped, pressed and robotically cut to the highest quality and accuracy standards.
We offer a wide range of structural mass timber solutions in Cross-laminated Timber (CLT) as well as Glue-laminated Timber (GLT) beams and columns.
Mass timber is a sustainable, durable, accurate and beautiful building product. With no water use on site, rapid building assembly speeds and a high structural performance, mass timber structures not only reduce the carbon output of a project, but offer a healthy space for the occupants. MTT’s state-of-the-art digital design to fabrication system produces building elements quickly and efficiently to meet the demands of the Southern African construction industry.

Mass Timber Technologies supported our partners BOXA Possibilities and The Sustainabuild Group in Johannesburg. The stand construction features our cross-laminated timber and our glulam beams. We're looking forward to seeing more timber in education spaces.
Last week, MTT gave a sneak peek of a small CLT first-floor addition in Johannesburg. This project is an excellent demonstration of a low-impact, high-performance approach to building alterations using cross-laminated timber.
Last year MTT supplied engineered timber for a wonderful project in the Drakensberg. This ECD project came about through a partnership between the local community and Three Tree Hill Lodge and Legacy of Grace. The classroom is part of a larger master plan in development by Boxa.
