Thermally Modified Wood Dimensional Lumber Ash

BENEFITS

Enhanced appearance

A rich, even tone throughout, a quick power wash restores wood back to its original color.

Workability

Arbor Wood may be glued, painted, or finished similar to standard wood to achieve the desired look for your next project.

High performance

Less water absorption makes it less susceptible to mold, rot & fungal decay

COLOR CHANGE

Thermal modification changes the naturally occurring sugars in the wood resulting in beautiful, rich tones which extend through the full thickness of the material. Since Arbor Wood is still a natural product, the grain and unique characteristics of the wood remain. In an exterior environment, Arbor Wood will move to gray when unfinished and the application of a UV inhibitor helps maintain the original color.
