Specie
Thermo Ayous is Sourced from Central Africa and made from Thermally modified Obeche Hardwood. The base timber is extremely light, 99% defect free and light yellow in appearance. The Thermal modification process heats and removes moisture from the timber in a controlled manner, this in turn alters the characteristics of the timber leaving a stable, moisture-controlled, highly durable timber with a mid-brown colour pallet. The timber has Class 1 – 2 durability making it a superb option for external uses. It is extremely light at 330 kilos per m3. Competitively priced, a strong contender as an alternative to Canadian Western Red Cedar for long-term stability and durability although with a different more consistent appearance.
Colour
Mid brown consistent colour
Fixings
