Wooden outdoor siding made of thermo pine, resistant to woodworm and rot. It is characterized by stability, sustainability and durability, withstands large changes in humidity and temperature. Nordic pine, treated with special technology and high heat, is not only a high-quality, but also a great-looking aesthetic material for facades and terraces.
Wooden outdoor siding
Thermowood is wood treated with steam and heat at a temperature of 180-215°C. The thermal treatment process changes the structure of the wood, increasing the resistance of the decking boards to external factors. The reaction to changes in humidity in the environment is reduced, regardless of changing weather conditions, the shape of the thermo pine decking board remains stable.
The most significant effects of heat treatment on pine wood are: dimensional stability, color darkness, and durability.
Dimensional stability
Wooden outdoor siding made of thermo pine is stable: it does not split, warp, curl, or “walk” like other types of wood, such as hardwoods. The siding retains its shape and color perfectly.
Color darkness
Thermo pine wood exterior siding has a rich brown color, which depends on the temperature during the treatment process – the higher it is, the darker the color.
Longevity
The properties of thermally treated wood improve as cellulose, a protein, burns out during the treatment process, so thermal pine siding does not rot and the terrace becomes more durable. This is relevant in the unstable and rather harsh climate of Lithuania.
Quality class
These thermal pine wooden outdoor siding panels belong to the AB quality class. This is a type of wood that meets high quality standards. Read more in the “Quality Description” section.
AB type decking boards are a mixture of A and B type boards (ratio A – 70%, B – 30%).
Processing class
The TermoD wood treatment class means that Nordic pine wood is heated to 212°C and is suitable for use in indoor and outdoor applications.
Installation
The MDS terrace expert team recommends installing thermal pine siding using screw foundations, the CAMO invisible fastening system, and Protech wood screws .
Maintenance
For aesthetic purposes and to maintain the color of the thermal facade and terrace boards, it is recommended to coat the surface with WOCA tinted oil .
To prevent natural factors – wind, rain and sunlight – from giving the facade a gray hue, thermowood boards can be used without surface treatment.
