Cowichan District Hospital Replacement
The Cowichan District Hospital Replacement Project is one of the first acute-care hospitals in North America to make extensive use of mass timber.
Kalesnikoff is supplying the CLT and Glulam for the public and clinical areas, meeting the demanding fire, acoustic, and infection-control requirements of a hospital.
The project shows the transformative potential of timber in healthcare: lower embodied carbon and a calmer environment for patients and staff.
