As the demand for high-quality, reliable timber alternatives grows, Wesbeam is proud to introduce e-frame e10, a locally manufactured laminated veneer lumber (LVL) designed specifically to replace traditional MGP10 sawn pine in stick-built construction.

Manufactured in Australia to meet the needs of modern builders, e-frame E10 combines consistency, strength, and availability—offering a superior solution where sawn pine has traditionally been used.

Designed for Real-World Applications

e-frame e10 LVL is engineered to suit a wide range of structural framing needs in residential and light commercial builds. Common applications include:

  • Wall studs
  • Ceiling joists
  • Hanging beams
  • Common rafters
  • Hip/valley rafters
  • Ridge beams

Whether you're framing walls or constructing complex roof structures, e-frame E10 delivers the performance and reliability needed on-site.

Why Choose e-frame e10 Over MGP10 Sawn Pine?

Builders and designers making the switch to e-frame E10 benefit from several key advantages:

  • Longer Lengths: Reduce waste and time spent joining shorter members
  • Superior Straightness: Easier handling and more precise installation
  • Higher Capacity Factor: Compliant with AS 1720.1 for improved structural design performance
  • Greater Consistency: Randomised veneer defects reduce product variability (lower Coefficient of Variation)
  • Built-in Protection: Supplied CodeMark-certified and e2S treated as standard, providing protection against termites for interior, above-ground use south of the Tropic of Capricorn
