What is thermally modified Carbon Smart Wood™?
Sourced from fallen trees, our thermally modified Carbon Smart Wood™ undergoes a specialized, chemical-free, 3-phase kiln process using only heat and steam. The initial gradual temperature increase reduces the wood's equilibrium moisture content (EMC).
Phase 2 involves a rapid spike in temperature, transforming the wood's cellular composition in an oxygen-deprived environment. This alteration makes the wood resistant to mold, rot, and fungal decay, while also rendering it hydrophobic, minimizing water absorption. The 3rd and final phase introduces steam to cool the wood down and bring the EMC back up to a suitable level. Overall, this process imparts a rich, dark tone to the wood, resembling exotic species while maintaining its local character - which is something to celebrate.
Chemical Free.
A natural, chemical-free process using only heat and steam to remove moisture from wood cells. This makes it lightweight
Decay Resistant.
The risk of fungal attack is greatly reduced because thermally modified wood no longer contains sufficient nutrients.
Enhanced Appearance.
Darker through-color tones. that will vary with cook temperatures and species. When left untreated, will patina gray.
Increased Stability.
Thermally modified wood is less susceptible to cupping and warping with changes in relative humidity and easier to install.
