About the product

The cladding & decking in your home bears witness to numerous magnificent and memorable moments. On warm days we sit on the deck and bask in the sunshine, at night we enjoy long dinners with family and friends or gaze at the stars. What better place to enjoy yourself than here, in fresh air and in natural surroundings, where natural wood feels so warm and inviting.

Thermally modified wood surfaces are dependable and free of chemicals. Unlike with composite materials, thermally modified wood does not include added plastic materials, it only uses the combination of heat and steam.

In addition to environmental friendliness, many other practical aspects invite people to choose thermally modified wood. For example, decking made of thermally modified wood does not get as hot in direct sunlight as that made of composite materials.

Thermory has been proven to have the highest durability class among different natural and processed wood species. The stability and durability of Thermory products are guaranteed by a thermal modification process called Intense, during which the wood gets heated up to 215 degrees.

Overtime this product will turn silver-grey, which is popular in countries like Scandinavia, where they do not put emphasis on maintaining the original colour of the wood and the weathered tone has actually become part of the design. However, for those who wish to do so, it is possible to preserve the rich chocolate colour of Thermory species by regularly coating it with UV-protection oil.

Thermory products have become an integral part in the work of architects. View a few examples in the photos below.
