What Is Thermally Modified Wood?
The wood undergoes a thermal modification process that collapses its cells, removes extractives, and increases density. Turning the wood into a stronger, more reliable version of itself. Making it virtually impervious to warping, rotting, humidity fluctuations, and splintering. Since the procedure doesn’t involve any nasty chemicals, the resulting wood is completely natural and environmentally friendly.
why choose thermowood?
Dimensional Stable: ThermoWood® experiences less swelling and shrinkage than untreated wood, ensuring greater dimensional stability. This characteristic makes it perfect for applications where consistent size and shape are essential, such as cladding.
No Resin Issues: The thermal modification process eliminates resins from the wood, preventing resin leakage that can occur with untreated wood in certain applications.
Sustainable and Chemical-Free: The ThermoWood® process is free from chemicals, making it an environmentally friendly choice.
Enhanced Weather Resistance: Thermowood offers superior resistance to weather compared to untreated wood, making it suitable for outdoor use even in harsh conditions.
Low Maintenance: Thanks to its enhanced durability and rot resistance, ThermoWood® requires minimal maintenance over time, which can lead to cost savings.
a chemical-free product = the safe choice for interior and exterior projects.

Why Thermally Modified Wood is a Game Changer
Thermal modification bestows a rich, deep allure upon the wood, which can be maintained with an oil-based UV-protectant stain. If left unprotected from UV exposure, the wood naturally ages into a beautiful silver/gray patina — rivaling that of exotic and tropical hardwoods.
