About NMBU's research and education on wood
NMBU is a leading center for wood research, advancing knowledge on wood properties, sustainable timber construction, and circular use of wood across the entire value chain. State‑of‑the‑art facilities support cutting‑edge studies on material performance, climate impacts, and innovative strategies for reuse and resource efficiency.
The Wood Laboratory is a laboratory for testing the anatomical, physical, and mechanical properties of wood, wood joints, and wooden structural elements. We offer testing services for the mechanical properties of materials and structural components. Read more about this service here.
In addition to its strong research environment, NMBU offers education that builds broad and lasting competence in wood science and sustainable building with wood, preparing future professionals to contribute to a low‑carbon, circular bioeconomy.
