About Truwood
Truwood® is a cost-effective timber cladding option with superior durability, stability and beauty. It is Codemark certified for use with Cedarscreen Vertical, Rusticated, Bevel Back and Board & Batten weatherboard systems. This stunning product is a thermally modified, clear grade timber, sourced from managed forests in West and Central Africa. Made from Ayous timber and the latest thermal modification technology, which involves applying heat at above 200°C, water vapour and pressure to the timber. The thermal treatment produces a rich Teak coloured board that's both durable and stable without any chemical treatment, resins or glues – just heat and wood. Truwood is considered more durable than other naturally durable cladding and is the most popular modified cladding in Europe.
