Mercer Mass Timber (MMT) and a subsidiary of Mercer International Inc., announces a strategic partnership with CLT Toolbox, a structural design software platform built specifically for mass timber buildings. 

By embedding product-specific, code-compliant design tools into a digital platform accessible to structural engineers worldwide, the partnership removes long-standing barriers that have historically slowed the adoption of mass timber as a mainstream building solution.

“Our collaboration with CLT Toolbox is about facilitating digital design in the realities of mass timber fabrication,” said Ricardo Brites, PhD, Director of Engineering & VDC at Mercer Mass Timber. “It’s a smart, integrated and accessible approach – and exactly the kind of alignment the industry needs.”

This is one of the first integrations of its kind in North America and signals a broader shift toward digitized, scalable mass timber construction. By simplifying design, manufacturing, and installation, MMT and CLT Toolbox are using advanced technology to remove complexity from workflows and accelerate the transition to low-carbon building systems.

Mercer Mass Timber (MMT) is redefining sustainable construction with innovative, bio-based building materials. 

Mercer International Inc. is a global forest products company with operations in Germany, USA and Canada with consolidated annual production capacity of 2.1 million tonnes of pulp, 960 million board feet of lumber, 210 thousand cubic meters of CLT, 45 thousand cubic meters of glulam, 17 million pallets and 230 thousand tonnes of biofuels.
