Thermal Modification




ThermalWood Canada prides itself for 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:

• Improved dimensional stability

• Eliminates the risk of decay and damage caused by insects
  • The high heat chemically transforms sugars in the wood. This makes the wood unattractive to potentially harmful insects, and acts as a barrier against decay caused by humidity and other water damage.
  • This makes it a great choice for outdoor or indoor uses where high humidity is present.

• Uniform darker coloration throughout the thickness of the lumber 

• Green alternative
  • The fact that there are no chemicals added during the process allows the company to offer the consumer a green alternative solution in a diversified market.
