Wood has long been the natu-ral and economical choice for use in many utility applications. The natural beauty of laminated wood blends into the environ-ment far better than steel or concrete. Its low cost, 6 to 8 week delivery* and engineered strength make it the all-around smart choice.

Engineered wood structures from LWS bring all of the ben-efits of laminated wood into to-days substation design require-ments. From dead end structures, metering structures, regulator structures to bus supports, LWS can provide the highest qual-ity laminated wood structures fast and, in most cases, at a much lower cost than steel. Additional saving will be realized in construction costs as poles may be direct embedded, eliminat-ing expensive foundations.

Contact LWS or the nearest LWS representative with your next substation project requirements and find out how the benefits of laminated wood can be a part of your smart solution.
