Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose timber construction in Geneva?
Timber is a sustainable and ecological material, offering an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, a warm atmosphere with lower heating needs, and great flexibility for future modifications.
Why choose wood fibre insulation over mineral insulation (glass wool or rock wool) in Geneva?
Today, U-values are the primary focus, where mineral insulators excel. However, with the intense heat in Geneva, wood fibre insulation is exceptionally beneficial thanks to thermal phase shift: the time it takes for heat to penetrate the building.
What is the lifespan of a timber frame?
A well-designed and maintained timber frame roof can last over 100 years.

The Federal Diploma (Maîtrise Fédérale) is the highest professional qualification in Swiss carpentry.
