thermal
modification
ThermalWood Canada prides itself on being a leader in the thermal modification manufacturing of wood products. Our in-house thermal modification process has been studied for many years, yet is simple at the base. Using our specially designed kiln, the wood is heated at a precise temperature, essentially cooking the lumber.
This process changes the characteristics of the wood. Notable advantages include:
- durability and stability
- Improved dimensional stability
- Decay and Insect Resistant
- The high heat chemically transforms sugars in the wood, making the wood unattractive to harmful insects, and acts as a barrier against decay caused by humidity and other water damage. A great choice for outdoor or indoor uses where high humidity is present.
- exquisite appearance
- Uniform darker coloration throughout the thickness of the lumber.
- green process
- Using only heat and steam – with no added chemicals during the process – we offer the consumer a green alternative solution in a diversified market.
