Exemples de produits en bois traité thermiquement / Examples of thermally modified wood products

Bois traité thermiquement (ThermalE)

Le bois traité thermiquement ThermalE est une solution écologique et durable, modifiée par la chaleur sans produits chimiques. Ce processus améliore sa stabilité dimensionnelle et lui confère une riche couleur brune.

Thermally modified wood, marketed under the brand name ThermalE, is an innovative product from Bois DV. This wood undergoes a controlled thermal modification process, where it is gradually heated to temperatures between 160 and 246 degrees Celsius in special anoxic chambers. This treatment, using only heat and steam, is completely chemical-free, making it an ecological and safe solution. The process alters the wood's cell structure, removing natural sugars and improving dimensional stability by up to 50% compared to traditionally kiln-dried wood. This results in lumber that is more resistant to warping, swelling, mold, and fungus. Aesthetically, the wood acquires a rich brown hue, comparable to exotic woods. The available species are poplar, hard maple, red oak, and ash, offered in 4/4, 5/4, 6/4, and 8/4 thicknesses.
No, the thermal modification process is completely chemical-free. It uses only heat and steam to physically change the wood, making it an ecologically sound product.
The main advantages are greater dimensional stability (up to 50% less movement), natural resistance to decay and mold, a beautiful brown color, and being ecological and chemical-free.
Yes, like all wood exposed to UV light, it will naturally age to a silver-grey color. To maintain the brown color, applying penetrating oils is recommended.
