Accoya is a lovely timber to work with, and the way they manufacture it means it lasts – it doesn’t warp or swell over time as other timbers do.

The timber in many heritage wooden windows will have been carefully harvested from plantations which were slower growing than modern equivalents. This means the wood in old windows is denser and of a higher quality. Accoya® timber matches this quality.

Simply said, the non-toxic Accoya® manufacturing process (acetylation) transforms sustainably sourced timber into acetylated hardwoods.

This results in minimal shrinkage, swelling or jamming, and increased insect and fungi protection.

As well as being a very stable and durable wood, Accoya® has great thermal insulation properties and far exceeds many synthetic equivalents.

Accsys, the innovators and producers of Accoya®, back their product with a 50-year (above ground) or 25-year (in-ground/freshwater) warranty. For more information, click here.

Tricoya® is a modified wood fibre and, like Accoya®, undergoes an acetylation process. We use Tricoya® because of its stability and quality. For applications such as panels, trims and façades, Tricoya® is another fantastic wooden window renovation material that upgrades the finished result.
