Our team use Accoya wood when they need to repair or replace some parts of the window. Accoya wood is a type of modified wood that is produced through an acetylation process.
This process involves adding acetic anhydride to the wood, which modifies the cell structure and makes the wood more resistant to rot, pests, and decay.
Accoya wood is often used in high-end furniture and cabinetry, as well as in exterior applications such as siding, decking, and fencing.
In addition to its durability, Accoya wood is also environmentally friendly, as it is made from sustainable sources and can be recycled at the end of its useful life.
