Tricoya acetylated wood elements

Tricoya acetylated wood elements (including chips, fibres and particles) have been pioneered by Accsys Technologies, the company that has successfully developed and commercialised Accoya acetylated solid wood. Accoya high technology wood is characterised by its durability, dimensional stability and reliability, characteristics that can be imparted upon wood elements to give wood composites similarly high performance credentials in challenging environments. The application of acetylation technology to wood ingredients for use in a vast array of wood composite end products is set to create new, high performance choices that will inspire creativity and confidence and open up new markets for manufacturers.

The new design and application possibilities offered by the marriage of acetylated wood elements with other materials is set to excite and stimulate composite manufacturers, designers, architects and the construction industry alike, opening up new possibilities and solutions.

The potential applications for composite materials incorporating Tricoya are far ranging and will inspire creativity and discovery, particularly in environments where humidity and weather are usually concerns.

It is now possible to imagine wood composites used virtually anywhere:

Façade cladding/siding
Fascia and soffit panels and other secondary exterior applications
Window components
Wet interiors, including wall linings in swimming pools, bathrooms, wet rooms, changing rooms...
Speciality furniture including lockers, cubicles, chairs and tables
Play frames, tree houses and exterior composite furniture
Signage
Automotive parts
Sound barriers
Sports equipment – surfboards, sleds, snowboards…
