Accoya® is the world’s leading high technology wood. Created via acetylated wood modification process, using sustainably grown timber, it creates a wood that matches or exceeds the durability, stability and beauty of the very best tropical hardwoods
The Accoya® wood production process takes sustainably-sourced, fast growing softwood that ‘enables nature’, creates a new durable, stable and beautiful product – that has the very best environmental credentials.
By significantly enhancing the durability and dimensional stability of fast-growing and abundantly available certified wood, Accoya® wood provides compelling environmental advantages over slow-growing hardwoods (which are often unsustainably sourced), woods treated with toxic chemicals, and non-renewable carbon-intensive materials such as plastics, metals and concrete.
