PORTLAND, Ore. — Kalesnikoff Mass Timber is launching new modular timber classrooms at the world’s largest mass timber conference in Portland, Oregon at Booth 878 to thousands of attendees.

“We are proud to introduce another innovative product from our exceptional team. Many communities in North America are growing, leaving local schools at capacity. These new modulars can be built and deployed rapidly, are cost effective, and create a warm and exceptional learning environment for students and staff,” said Chris Kalesnikoff, resident and C.E.O. of Kalesnikoff. “We’re excited to showcase this classroom here at the conference and then to other educators and decision-makers – we think this is the way of the future.”

“Given the rising costs and other challenges of traditional construction, and ongoing labor shortages, these modular classrooms – like modular housing – are generating a lot of interest,” said Kalesnikoff.

The new mass timber classroom mods are extremely adaptive to meet the needs of the community and school. They can be configured as a single classroom, or combined for an expansion or a complete new school, in a single story or stacked format. They are designed for timely assembly, delivery and site installation; provide safe and modern mechanical air performance, and are complete with digital, heating and plumbing pre-installed.

Constructed of cross-laminated timber (CLT) from Kalesnikoff’s own mass timber facility in the West Kootenays from high-quality B.C. wood, the modulars feature CLT floors, walls and ceiling for rigid, reliable and resilient classrooms that can keep occupants comfortable in any climate.
