Suitable for use as external timber cladding.

Thermopine® is a timber with enhanced stability and durability, produced by thermally modifying Scandinavian grown Scots Pine using only heat, steam and pressure.

Thermopine® has a uniform chocolate-brown colour tone which will quickly weather to grey if left uncoated. Due to its enhanced stability, the product is suitable for factory coating in a choice of colours. Boards display attractive, tight grain figuring with an abundance of live (structurally sound) round and splay knots, some of which may display cracks and chipped-off edges after machining, an occasional dead knot cannot be ruled out.

The appearance after factory coating is largely determined by which surface is opted for. An opaque coating means the knots and figuring will be less visible. When coating thermally modified timber using translucent coating systems, some lightening of the colour tone is to be expected over time, particularly when lighter shades are selected. This is to do with the natural weathering of the timber.
