What is Laminata Homes?

Laminata Homes is a division of Mt Pokaka Timber Products Ltd, specialising in high-performance, factory-built homes using engineered timber. Our homes are crafted from locally sourced MiniCLT panels, ensuring strength, efficiency, and reduced construction time.

How are Laminata Homes built?

Our homes are built using offsite manufacturing. This means that components, including our MiniCLT panels, are assembled in a controlled factory environment before being transported and installed on-site. This approach ensures greater precision, faster build times, and less material waste compared to traditional construction.

What is MiniCLT, and why is it used in Laminata Homes?

MiniCLT (Cross-Laminated Timber) is an engineered timber panel made by layering plantation pine in a crosswise pattern. This process enhances stability, strength, and durability, making it an ideal material for high-performance housing.

Are Laminata Homes energy efficient?

Yes. The use of MiniCLT panels naturally enhances thermal performance, helping to regulate indoor temperatures and reduce heating and cooling costs. Our homes also incorporate high-performance insulation and energy-efficient joinery to improve overall comfort.

Where does the timber used in Laminata Homes come from?

All timber used in our homes is locally sourced from Northland’s plantation pine forests. Our mill processes the timber into MiniCLT panels, beams, and framing components, ensuring a fully integrated and locally managed supply chain.

Can I paint, stain, or clear-coat interior CLT lining planks?

Yes. Interior timber lining planks are commonly finished with paint, stain, oil, or clear coat, depending on the look you want. Smoother faces tend to suit paint or clear finishes, while more textured finishes are often chosen when you want the grain and saw marks to stand out more. Merchant fixing guidance also notes that high-quality coating systems should be used to the coating manufacturer’s recommendations.

What kind of timber treatment is used?

All structural timber and linings in Laminata Homes are treated to H3.2 standard using MicroPro® MCA technology, which is a low-emission, environmentally certified treatment. It provides long-term durability and protection against moisture and pests.
