Accoya® wood has undergone a thorough process of acetylation, which results in a material which is extremely durable and dimensionally stable.
Accoya® wood has been tested over prolonged periods in all types of weathering conditions – above ground, below ground, and even in water – and has been proved to withstand even the toughest of external environments. Not only is its durability proved, but it has also been shown to retain its appearance, requiring much less frequent maintenance than other wood species. This gives added reassurance to the manufacturers, architects, specifiers, builders and property owners who have chosen Accoya® wood for a diverse range of projects. Accoya® wood is also being tested for additional uses by partners worldwide.
Where aesthetics, less frequent maintenance, lack of knots, dimensional stability and durability are key factors Accoya® wood is, without doubt, the material of choice for cladding.
