Accoya

Unrivalled high-performance sustainable wood. Tried and tested in outstanding architectural and residential projects around the world. Accoya® wood offers an industry-leading warranty and provides several environmental gains during its use phase. Its improved properties include increased durability, improved thermal insulation and longer coating life as a result of increased dimensional stability. The wood shrinks and swells much less than other wood species, and is much less susceptible to decay or insect attack. This makes Accoya an ideal choice for those looking for performance and to use sustainable building materials. Accoya is modified through a process called acetylation. The proprietary acetylation process enhances fast‐growing, renewable and sustainably‐sourced softwoods into a non‐toxic material with qualities to compete with hardwoods, plastics and metals.
