New contracts worth £5m have been secured in the last two months by Stewart Milne Timber Systems (SMTS).

The projects, spread throughout the UK, range from hotel extensions and new builds to a 300-bed student accommodation development for an English university.

SMTS will also supply timber systems for five private housing contracts and affordable housing developments in Inverness and Lewisham.

SMTS will use one of its low-carbon closed panel build systems or its Sigma II solution, the structural part of which comprises solid timber flanges tied by metal connectors.
