Sterling Structural Launches CLTimber Bay System for Industrial and Commercial Buildings

Sterling Structural announces the CLTimber Bay System, a new prefabricated comprehensive, fully-engineered building solution ideal for Warehouses, Datacenters and Big Box Stores. CLTimber Bay delivers sustainable, high-performance warehouses, data centers and "big box" facilities with faster construction timelines and reduced embodied carbon.

PHOENIX, Ill., July 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sterling Structural, a leading manufacturer of cost-effective, pre-fabricated mass timber and hybrid structural systems in North America, today announced the launch of its CLTimber Bay System, a comprehensive building solution specifically designed for industrial and commercial projects including warehouses, data centers, and large-scale retail facilities.

The CLTimber Bay System combines the environmental benefits of mass timber with the speed and efficiency of a pre-engineered solution. Building on Sterling's expertise in delivering large-scale industrial projects, the system addresses the growing demand for sustainable industrial and commercial buildings as corporate real estate priorities shift toward smarter building systems that support both people and the planet.

"As the industrial and commercial sectors evolve, developers are prioritizing building systems that deliver both environmental performance and construction efficiency," said Michaela Harms, Vice President of Mass Timber at Sterling Structural. "Our CLTimber Bay System responds to this shift by providing a sustainable and turnkey mass timber solution that's optimized for performance, flexibility, and constructability-delivering on site, on time, and on budget."

Unlike traditional mass timber suppliers, Sterling Structural provides a complete, fully engineered building solution that includes structural design, CLT supply, structural steel, connection hardware, and installation through its trusted network of partners. This integrated approach streamlines procurement, reduces job site coordination, and keeps projects on track with domestically sourced and manufactured materials that are reliably delivered to the project site.

Key features of the CLTimber Bay System include:

Accelerated Construction: Prefabricated panels can be installed with factory-applied Weather Resistant Barrier (WRB) to fast-track envelope completion;Simplified Installation: CLT provides a continuous structural surface, making attachment of racking, mechanical systems, or tenant improvements straightforward without additional blocking or costly field coordination;Flexible Design: Optimized grids support future adaptability for evolving industrial and commercial needs;Environmental Performance: Dramatically reduced embodied carbon compared to traditional tilt-wall construction using 100% domestically grown, regenerative timber. Sterling Structural and its complementary product, engineering and installation partners provide comprehensive environmental product data, material weight analyses, logistics benefits, and schedule advantages over traditional tilt-wall construction. The system supports developers seeking U.S.-based supply and measurable sustainability outcomes while maintaining construction efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
