With our Vacu³-method we are able to extract the chemical by-products such as formaldehyde and acid within the wood, and collect these separately. Therefore our wood is clearly below the recommended limit of toxic substances.
timura wood is thermally treated with the patented vacuum-press-dewatering-method (Vacu³). This process reduces the absorption of moisture within the wood – this means that the final product has reduced swelling and shrinking behaviour without the danger of cracking. In addition, timura wood has an improved resistance against mould fungus, blue stain and wood pests. Therefore we can use timura wood in wet areas such as showers, Sauna, spas or on top of heated flooring. Thus timura wood is fit to be laid in living- and wellness areas for private and commercial use. With our Vacu³-Method we apply heat by means of hotplates directly to the wood surface. In comparison to other thermal processes our technology is faster and much more efficient - this is because the wood itself is heated and not the heating chamber. Thereby we manage to create a consistent treatment method of all components and an extremely homogenous coloration.
