Accoya® wood represents a major development in wood technology that makes the consistent supply of durable, dimensionally stable, sustainable, non-toxic solid wood a reality.
Based on wood acetylation (a process that has been studied by scientists for over 75 years and has been proven to greatly reduce the ability of wood to absorb water at the cellular level, significantly improving its durability and dimensional stability), Titan Wood has successfully pioneered the consistent commercial scale production of Accoya® wood, a product that performs as well as the best tropical hardwoods in demanding exterior applications.
Consolidating many years of independent/proprietary research and technology development, the company operates the world’s only large-scale commercial production facility for acetylated wood (in the Netherlands) and further facilities are being constructed worldwide by technology licensees.
Accoya® wood is being used in applications from windows, doors and siding to heavy traffic road bridges in Europe and is presently being introduced into North America and other markets.
Information, beyond that which is available on this site and tailored to a wide range of professional functions, is available at www.accoya.info. Live consultation with peer professionals, product samples, and research reports are available by contacting our offices directly.
Accoya® wood is, a “new wood species”, whose performance credentials have been extensively researched and repeatedly demonstrated. Accoya® wood has properties that surpass those of the best tropical hardwoods, yet is manufactured using a non-toxic process and wood from FSC and other certified sustainable sources.
