Vancouver-based Mercer Mass Timber has launched a construction services division. The timber building materials manufacturer, which is a subsidiary of wood pulp producer Mercer International, will offer both onsite installation and consultancy services for clients who want guidance and strategic support, per the release. Brian Merwin, senior VP at Mercer Mass Timber, told Construction Dive that the firm doesn’t see itself competing with other installers. Rather, Merwin said that the new division would work with clients who are building with mass timber for the first or the second time. Merwin said that the new division would provide a “turnkey” solution for its clients and that it represented a new offering for customers. It also doesn’t represent a strategy shift for the company toward construction and installation. “Our core business is still supplying mass timber materials for installation,” Merwin said.
