Thermory

We Want to Leave a Lasting Impact

At Thermory we believe in the beauty of wood. Today’s urban environments have created a distance between humans and nature with massive overuse of concrete, steel and plastics in architecture and construction. We want to change that by creating a more natural and sustainable environment that we all can be proud of for generations to come. If that’s a vision you share, you’re in the right place.

Global Leader in Thermal Modification – a Sustainable Technology for High Quality Lasting Solutions

Our expertise is in thermally modified wood process and technology. Using only heat and steam, we create extremely durable and climate resistant decking, cladding, flooring, wall paneling and sauna products that are unrivalled in both performance and sustainability vs usual alternatives (plastic composites, chemically treated woods, tropical hardwoods, etc.).

Enhancing Environments with Outstanding Interior and Exterior Design

Since more than 20 years, we work closely with architects, designers, real estate developers and specialized distributors across the world. Through this network of like-minded partners, we call it the Thermory Tribe, we have implemented thousands of beautiful projects across 50+ countries on all continents.

We naturally enhance wood using only heat and steam

Complete modification of every fiber.

Our process modifies each board completely, leading to unrivaled durability and stability, delivering superior functionality with natural beauty of real wood.

Thermally modified timber is our key strength at Thermory.

With our exclusive, state-of-the-art technology and years of expertise, we know exactly how to bring out the best in wood. Thermally modified wood is natural – its properties are enhanced using just heat and steam. This chemical-free process results in an environmentally friendly and aesthetically pleasing material
that’s significantly more durable and stable than conventional timber.

As well as offering these practical benefits, our thermal modification treatment also creates dynamic visual effects, with the wood taking on an appealing darker brown shade. The intensity of the color depends on the wood type and the duration and temperature of the modification process. This gives you the opportunity to choose between lighter and darker materials to suit your desired color palette. Thermally modified timber is suitable for interior and exterior use in both homes and public spaces.

We like to raise the bar, not meet it. Most importantly, our thermal modification process is entirely natural, using only heat and steam.

This makes our products ecologically superior to most alternatives - tropical hardwood, plastic composite materials or toxiacally treated products.

  • Sourcing: We believe in the preservation of natural resources, and understand how different forests and environments renew. We don’t abuse the privilege of natural wood, and we carefully source for quality and responsibility – never from rainforests.
  • Lumber: Our lumber partners know that our standards are high. Our wood is carefully inspected, tested, trimmed, machined and modified before being sold. Our customers notice the difference.
  • Quality: We frequently test our products with 3rd parties for durability (class 1,2), fire resistance (CE label) and environmental forestry practices (Swan Label, PEFC).
