Aesthetically pleasing, durable and environmentally friendly, EcoThermo wood offers a host of advantages when it comes to cladding, contemporary decking and interior cladding, thanks to a 100% ecological process: thermo-stabilisation.
This environmentally-friendly process involves gradually heating the wood to around 200°C (215°C outside and 184°C inside), alternating between temperature increases and rewetting phases.
It gives wood planks exceptional stability and durability, while neutralising resin pockets and significantly reducing warping and shrinkage. This process limits dimensional variations in the living material that is wood. It also produces a homogenous brown colour in the mass for a warm hue. As part of its commitment to product care and sustainable development, Sivalbp offers a wide range of PEFC-certified EcoThermo species (PEFC/10-31-1593) from responsibly managed forests that are sustainable for up to 50 years.
EcoThermo wood species for all your projects
These species are ideal for meeting the constraints of architectural projects. Certain woods, such as Nordic Pine and Nordic Spruce, are particularly well suited to outdoor use. EcoThermo modifies the composition of the wood's cells, improving its resistance to biological degradation, fungi and insects. These species become particularly resistant to climatic conditions. What's more, thanks to this process, which preserves the wood, they blend in perfectly with the environment, require no maintenance in terms of their biological and mechanical resistance, and age perfectly over time, with a slight greying if they are not coated with a finish.
EcoThermo spruce, pine and Larch are ideal for interior use, and can be used in damp environments such as bathrooms. These EcoThermo species provide real stability to the boards, which do not warp.
Timeless white ceruse brings a new lease of life to interiors, while maintaining a sober look. With its fine, luminous grain, northern spruce adds a touch of elegance to any interior.
For the exterior, the range of colours goes from natural protection to pre-weathered to trendy black.
These EcoThermo species open the way to architectural creativity for unique designs and customised projects based on requests and technical requirements. Authentic, New Age, Vintage or Contemporary, EcoThermo woods are an excellent way to let your imagination run riot and inspire you.
Chemical-free wood
When you choose EcoThermo species, you are guaranteed to work with a high-quality, eco-responsible finished product, the result of controlled and monitored processes, manufactured on a unique French site that is itself eco-designed. The wood we receive is eco-certified and carefully selected, then processed in a 100% natural way with no added chemicals or petroleum products, then profiled and finished in the factory. Whether indoors or outdoors, opting for this type of wood eliminates pollution and enhances the natural properties of wood. Biodegradable, with no added toxic products or pesticides, heat-stabilised wood is easy to recycle.
