Accoya®: a new way of thinking about wood
Accoya® turns everything you know about wood on its head.
Through a revolutionary scientific process called acetylation, it modifies wood to give it properties above and beyond the very best hardwoods – and in many cases, aluminum and PVC.
Since its launch in 2007, Accoya has been selected by hundreds of manufacturers as their wood of choice and used on some of the most architecturally significant projects in the world. But perhaps its most exciting application is in everyday homes, where it brings new possibilities for windows, doors, decking and cladding.
Performance beyond any other wood
Accoya brings unprecedented reliability for timber; it is checked and trusted not to visibly swell, shrink or distort.
Highly durable, it withstands the test of any climate. And what’s more, it stays that way – a 50 year above ground, and 25 year below ground and freshwater warranty are testament to the fact that you can expect to enjoy your Accoya wood for many decades to come.
Finish with the ultimate consistency and quality
Finish sums up many of the reasons architects and manufacturers love working with Accoya – coatings look brilliant and last longer, and its easy and hassle free care, save time and money in the long-term. It also offers huge design freedom, with the ability to create a multitude of textural finishes such as smooth, charred and brushed, plus custom size and finish options for endless creativity.
Sustainability unrivaled anywhere in the market
Accoya is the truly sustainable choice that helps you meet global challenges like climate change. From source to production and through to end of life, sustainability shines through. Accredited by the FSC® and Cradle to Cradle Gold certified™, it is the only construction material in the world to achieve C2C Platinum certification™ for Material Health. With a low carbon footprint, you can help combat carbon emissions for a healthier world. It’s also non toxic, so safe for people and pets as well as the planet.
Windows & Doors
Thanks to their stability, Accoya windows and doors open effortlessly all year round – and for decades to come. Long lasting coatings keep windows and doors looking pristine for longer, and natural insulation keeps homes cozy and energy costs down.
A low lifetime maintenance cost makes Accoya a worthwhile long-term investment at little cost to the environment.
Cladding
When aesthetics and low maintenance are critical, Accoya becomes the clear choice – it’s ideal for cladding where the elements will do their worst. Long lasting coatings with low maintenance will keep cladding looking great. Customizable profiles and finishes allow you to get the look you want, with the availability of wide boards allowing you ultimate creative freedom.
Decking
Accoya’s high stability allows you to lay decking with smaller gaps – that means a more even surface that stays smooth for longer. Highly durable, it suits all climates and its cool, splinter free finish makes it perfect for delicate bare feet.
Accoya decking is also a non toxic choice that’s safe for people, pets – and the environment.
