Walmart’s new Home Office in Bentonville is the largest corporate campus in the nation built using mass timber, a sustainable building material gaining popularity in the U.S.
Mercer Mass Timber, a leading manufacturer of sustainable timber building materials and a subsidiary of Mercer International, played a key role in the installation of mass timber panels that began in 2024 is now complete.
Mercer Conway supplied a total of 21,000 cubic meters of cross-laminated timber and glue-laminated timber for the project while providing jobs for nearly 60 local employees. MMT is also set to provide CLT and Glulam for two major sections of campus that will open in late 2025 to early 2026.
Zone 1 will include four hybrid mass timber buildings, four stories each, boasting a total of nearly 900,000 square feet of office space and parking decks. Zone 3 will include additional offices built with full mass timber frames, including a single five-story building with a total area of more than 330,000 square feet.
“This project showcases how mass timber can transform commercial construction,” said Nick Milestone, senior vice president at MMT. “We’re proud to support Walmart’s sustainability vision and demonstrate how local, eco-friendly materials create beautiful, high-performance workplaces.”
