Tantimber Thermowood

Tantimber® is the world’s third-largest manufacturer of thermally modified wood products using the ThermoWood® process that takes sustainably sourced timber and, using natural methods of steam and heat, results in finished products that are incredibly durable. All raw materials are sourced from FSC®- and PEFC™-certified forests; any by-products can be used for energy generation or recycled. The modification process includes: • High-temperature drying • Thermal modification and cooling • Moisture conditioning It is an entirely chemical-free, non-toxic process that transforms the timber into stable and durable (Class 1 or Class 2) wood products that stand up to the most extreme environments. Because of its low moisture content, Tantimber ThermoWood products will not warp, expand, contract, twist, buckle, or be a suitable food source for insects due to seasonal changes in temperature and humidity. As a result, it is virtually impervious to fungi and bacteria that can cause decay. Suitable for various exterior and interior applications — decking, siding, louvers, ceilings, soffits, pergolas, landscaping, window and door components, and more. Tantimber ThermoWood products are available in six species — ash, pine, iroko, ayous, poplar, and oak — and in many unique profiles, widths, and lengths, adding warmth and distinction to projects for the discriminating design and building professional. Tantimber ThermoWood is an exceptional alternative to endangered South American hardwoods, environmentally damaging petroleum-based wood imitations (WPC, synthetic/composite), and hybrid products.
