Metsä Wood : Wooden roof of Macallan Distillery resonates authenticity and honesty
The Macallan Distillery and Visitor Experience in Craigellachie , Speyside in Scotland is a stunning sight . Five meadow-covered hills hide the undulating roof of the distillery . The contemporary building combines a wooden roof with glass and steel . Fast , light and green Kerto LVL ( laminated veneer lumber ) was used as part of the prefabricated roof .
The building includes a Visitor Experience centre , three still houses and a mash house with a common roof and fully glazed wall . This reflects the wishes of the Macallan Distillery , a premium brand , whose single malt whisky production dates back to 1824 . The goal was a contemporary facility celebrating phasing , authenticity and honesty .
“ Kerto LVL is a very good engineered wood material , because you can trust the material dimensions ,” says Johannes Rebhahn , Sales Director International Timber Projects at Wiehag , who was responsible for the roof construction . .

Only the best for the best
British Olympic gold medallists Laura and Jason Kenny CBE recently refurbished their conservatory with a WARMroof solid roof – the award-winning system from Prefix Systems .
Their old conservatory was in desperate need of some TLC due to the bad leaking and extreme temperatures so they decided to upgrade to a system that would allow them to enjoy their conservatory all year round .
Our trade customer who installed the WARMroof commented “ The WARMroof is the best solid roof on the market . It is a true warmroof construction and such a great system to install – we can have it watertight in just one day . Laura and Jason were over the moon with it and it ’ s not hard to see why – it looks fantastic !”
