Maine’s PAL Build Rebrands as NotchSB With Eye on Mass Timber

PAL Build, a mass timber design-build company specializing in panelized cross-laminated timber and high-performance wood building envelope construction, is now operating under the name NotchSB, Mainebiz reported (12-13-24).

The Belfast company said the new name reflects “a new era of growth” that builds on its expertise in mass timber panelization with the expansion of services to include advanced mass timber engineering and a fully integrated design-to-construction system.

NotchSB’s goals include optimizing the supply chain and streamlining the design-to-build process, providing more affordable and accessible decarbonized housing solutions, and addressing critical housing shortages, according to a news release.

The expansion of advanced mass timber engineering and design-to-construction systems aims to provide access to mass timber, which is a challenge in the Northeast, Farmer told Mainebiz.

The company’s process leverages 3D design modeling capabilities with an advanced manufacturing footprint to streamline mass timber procurement and bring costs down while compressing construction timelines.
