Thermac Lumber

Thermally modified lumber is used for flooring, siding, fencing & furniture, for both interior and exterior applications to reduce expansion and contraction caused by changing moisture conditions.
Thermally modified lumber is a green alternative to both tropical and pressure-treated lumbers.
There are zero chemicals used to produce thermally modified lumber only heat and water.
The lumber becomes more resistant to bug infestation.
Thermally modified wood is less susceptible to decay fungi(rot) and is much more dimensionally stable.
The lumber can be left unfinished.
The process of thermal modification results in a rich dark brown color.
The color of the lumber, once baked is all the way to the center and can be reinvigorated with sanding.

Finishes and Maintenance

Natural (No Finish) - Wood is sanded to a smooth flat surface that can be allowed to turn to a fantastic silver/grey patina.
• No maintenance is needed.
• Sanding can be used to remove stains and or smooth out chips.
• Allow time to restore affected area to the matching patina.

Oiled (Outdoor Oil) - After sanding one penetrating coat of oil is applied by hand.
• Oil will need to be applied based on exposure to the elements.
• A light sanding can be used to return over exposed areas of a piece to original color.
• Any outdoor rated oil can be used.
