What Is Thermory Wood?

Thermory Wood is a thermally modified wood. It is completely natural, chemical free and does not harm the environment. Thermory’s team of experts spent over 20 years researching and perfecting its special thermal modification process. It successfully developed the best method for producing eco-friendly, durable and stable wooden panels with a flawless aesthetically superior surface finish. The modification process uses only heat and steam, making the hot tub panels a great alternative to plastic panels or chemically treated wood. Thermally treated wood is perfect for outdoor use as it features a lower moisture absorption capability. This means the wood shrinks and expands less when used outdoors. Thermory Wood undergoes rigorous testing by CATAS, one of the largest test and applied research laboratories in Europe.

Thermory Ash - The Best Durability Class

We selected Thermory’s Benchmark ash panels for our hot tub cabinets as they combine the timeless sophistication of real wood with exceptional durability, meticulous milling, and easy installation. Belonging to the highest available durability class, Thermory ash wood is extremely stable and completely knotless with a rich, deep tone. Thermory ash wood is the perfect choice for outdoor hot tub spas as it provides the best protection all year round.

A Lighter Material

Thermory Wood is lighter than other types of wood due to lower moisture content. Thermal modification lowers the wood’s absorbency and shrinks the wood. This process prevents the wood from swelling when used outdoors.
