Thermo Wood
THE WARM AND NATURAL BEAUTY OF THE HEAT-TREATED ASH TREE
THERMO WOOD is the range in which wood is processed by means of THW thermotreatment, a procedure that makes it stable, remarkably durable and versatile in outdoor installation.
Our Thermo products are made exclusively with top quality raw materials respecting the most stringent wooden requirements thanks to the use of temperature. After drying, the wood is gradually exposed to heat in special ovens, until it exceeds 200°C. Through this treatment, the ash is unassailable and unalterable by fungal attacks.
Thanks to a great productive wisdom, a deep know-how and in relation to an extremely slow and meticulous process, we obtain a refined, homogeneous, silky to the touch and absolutely perfect surface able to meet the highest design architecture requirements.
In aesthetic terms, this process gives the wood a pleasant dark brown color, in which even the beauty of the fiber is already enhanced in post-production without any oil treatment.
SAPIENS has adopted this technique as it is able to develop the performance of ash wood, which achieves class 1 durability without the use of chemicals, obtaining a lower propensity to swelling and contraction obtained on a series of low thickness products, ideal for renovation.
