Canadian Wood, in collaboration with MAK Projects, has launched Canadian Wood Villa at BTR greens, Hyderabad.
Spread over 250 acres in Hyderabad’s Knowledge City, BTR Greens by MAK Projects is a world-class gated and guarded community project. Comprising of 300 premium villas, it offers all the luxuries of city life in a serene environment. The Canadian Wood state-of-the-art villa is a unique part of this cluster that stands apart in its very appeal and making.
The display villa has been made from almost ready-to-use, seasoned, sized, graded and certified lumber from B.C. The villa has been built in WFC (Wood Frame construction) style with Canadian Spruce-pine-fir; a wood species known globally for its high dimensional strength and stability making it the perfect choice for structural applications. WFC style of construction is one of the most widely used methods to build in North America. This technique optimises the building process by helping reduce the time and cost involved in the construction process. All technical and material assistance was provided by Canadian Wood on the project.
Pranesh Chhibber, Country Director, Canadian Wood, said, “It’s a responsible decision to choose wood species such as Canadian Wood that are sourced from sustainably managed forests of British Columbia. The real estate industry in India, though highly accomplished in building with concrete, was found highly wanting in knowledge and local skills required to build with wood. That is when we at FII India decided to embark on identifying potential builders and contractors for sharing knowledge with and imparting training through seminars, training workshops and wood colleges besides, and sharing best practices to help develop local expertise. Additionally, we began supporting the developers by arranging the required architectural and structural engineering expertise from Canada to build with wood.”
