chemical substances for wood protection from parasites, which is 5 times more than wood without thermal modification.Thermo wood may be used indoors and outdoors at any climatic conditions. Thermo wood is heated up to 220°C temperature,gained material is natural, resulted from high temperature and pressure. There is no chemical substances used at any stage of the process and Eco-friendly throughout its life cycle and decomposition.

-
● Thermally modified wood practically does not swell and shrink under the circumstances of humidity and temperature;
● Thermo wood does not contain resin – it vaporizes during the process;
● Thermo wood is NOT a favourable environment for wood parasites, which are the main;
reason of rot (the structure of hemicellulose – nutrient of parasites has been vastly affected during the heating process);
● Thermo wood’s main advantage is outdoor use – it does not shrink, swell and crack. These are aspects mostly deterring people from use of wood and promoted to develop different wood imitation or wood composite products;
● Fully natural, nature friendly product and may be produced from renewable resources only;
● Thermo wood is on the early stage to become recognizable and demanded timber in the future. - Stage of Development
