Creating Value for Your Customers
‘No-Equal’ Standard and Custom-made products and components
At Simpson Strong-Tie we have a long history of designing and manufacturing custom made products and components for our industry partners. Sometimes a slight modification of a standard range product can be enough for it to fit seamlessly into the specific manufacturing of building components and sometimes we need to create a new design to solve the challenge.
We start out by discussing the challenge at hand with you, and then we find the best solution together. Thereby, we can create a custom made product, which not only solves your challenge, we can also design it taking the advantages of our manufacturing machinery into consideration, and thereby creating the most cost-effective solution for all parties involved.

Nature Inspiring Technology
In this short film, NCC Production Manager, Mads Seirup Rasmussen explains:
"I am standing at a construction site in Odense. It is called the Cobot Hub. The special thing about this construction is that the primary building material is wood, both in terms of columns, beams and CLT panels. The connections of the CLT panels to the beams are made with structural screws supplied by Simpson Strong-Tie and specified by our engineer and timber supplier.The screws, that are 360mm in length are screwed vertically down into the beams. The structural screws fully comply with our expectations. Not least because we don't have to pre-drill, which is a big benefit that makes our job significantly easier.
Since I started my search for these structural screws, I have had a regular contact person with Simpson Strong-Tie, whom I made great use of. I have been able to get the needed screws and when we needed more special screws, they have been very helpful in order to deliver quickly. And even though they might not be in stock locally, they have supplied them form Germany.
For me it has been nice to know that when I make an order, the screws are supplied within a short timeframe.
Fast, accurate and safe product specification
Solid Wood is our latest web-based calculation tool that helps consulting engineers, building designers etc. with finding and documenting the right fastening solution.
The program is easy to use, and makes it easier to understand and specify the right solutions, based on e.g. the density of the substrate, the characteristics of the material, the category of corrosion and the load. In 4 simple steps, Solid Wood finds a concrete fastening solution that is suitable for the specific project. The specifications can be printed out and used as documentation.
- Documentation according to Eurocode 5 (EN 1995-1-1)
- Faster and easier than hand counting
- Wood-wood / steel-wood / plate-wood joints
- The program creates a PDF report which can be used to document the project.
