Accoya: Naturally Beautiful and Durable
Untreated Accoya wood, similar to other wood species, will develop an elegant silvery-grey color over time when exposed to the elements. But unlike other woods, Accoya’s weathering does not compromise its durability, stability, or performance.
During the initial weathering phase, the color may appear uneven due to variations in sunlight and rain exposure. This, however, gradually transforms into a uniform, stunning silvery-grey effect that will last for decades.
Accoya’s exceptional dimensional stability reduces the stress on coatings caused by shrinking and swelling, which is a common issue with other woods. This results in coatings that last longer and maintain their beauty for a longer period.
While uncoated Accoya is a fantastic choice for many applications, some situations, like windows, require coated frames. This protects other window components and mechanisms, ensuring optimal performance.
