Wood modification, the novel base, providing materials with superior qualities without toxic residue

Ziel

Wood modification will provide the world with a completely novel base material with many of the superior properties of both wood and plastics but without any toxic residue. Sustainable, fast growing European wood and fibres are the raw materials for the processes. High quality wood will be a valuable replacement for tropical hardwood, lower grades are turned into durable timber and wood-based products. Modification will double or triple the service lifetime of valuable timber construction and consequently reduce the use of raw material by 50% to 70% as well as the need for maintenance by painting. Several European initiatives at various stages of development predict an enormous market potential. Cross fertilisation of all partners in the whole value-chain will lead to a tremendous step forward in this technology. Self-sufficiency of the EU in high quality base material production will be achieved.
