Accoya Wood Siding

Accoya wood is highly rot resistant and very stable across varying climates.

Accoya wood siding.

Accoya modified wood has become the timber industry benchmark when it comes to performance and sustainability. Accoya is sustainably sourced radiata pine treated by nontoxic acetylation. Accoya is the brand name of this modified wood. The chemical modification provides dimensional stability and durability that exceeds the best hardwoods.

Resistant to rotting accoya siding is likely to stay free of any visible distortion over its lifetime which means fewer call backs than typical wood siding types. Exterior wood siding has to withstand any weather. Accoya wood is perfect for demanding applications such as windows and doors where it is important that tolerances are tight yet regardless of the conditions they open year round. Accoya is perfect for siding where wood s natural beauty is desired but sustainability and high performance are of the utmost importance.

Accoya is wood but not as you know it. Accoya is a brand name for a type of softwood lumber mostly radiata pine that has been treated with a chemical called acetic anhydride which buildinggreen describes as really strong vinegar after treatment the wood has gained remarkable performance characteristics at a very low environmental cost. Guaranteed for 50 years above ground and 25 years in ground or freshwater its performance and properties are remarkable. Accoya wood is the result of decades of research and development that has brought together a long established extensively proven wood modification technique and leading edge patented technology acetylation to create a high performance wood ideal for outdoor use and challenging applications.

A cost effective choice for lasting performance. Sustainably sourced and with a low total lifetime carbon cost accoya actively contributes to a circular bio based economy.
