Toxin Free :
As only heat and water vapour are used under high pressure, no toxic chemicals are part of the process.
Dimensional Stability :
By reducing the equilibrium moisture content, the timber becomes more stable dimensionally, retaining its shape far better than untreated wood.
Durable :
Insufficient nutrients remain after the breakdown of hemicellulose (sugar chains) during treatment, inhibiting the growth of fungi. The result is better durability.
Quality :
The thermal treatment creates a uniform dark colour, enhancing wood grain and providing a smoother finish after varnishing. The superior woodworking properties are also boosted.
