Roastedwood

Roastedwood refers to wood that has undergone a process of controlled heating, typically in an oxygen-depleted environment. This thermal modification alters the wood's physical and chemical properties. The heating process causes changes in the wood's cell structure, reducing its moisture content and increasing its dimensional stability. This means that roastedwood is less prone to swelling and shrinking when exposed to varying humidity levels.

The thermal treatment also contributes to enhanced durability and resistance to decay and insect attack. By removing some of the wood's extractives and sugars, it becomes less appealing to biological agents that cause rot and infestation. Furthermore, the color of the wood changes, often deepening to a richer, darker hue, depending on the temperature and duration of the roasting process.

Roastedwood finds applications in various industries, including construction, furniture making, and outdoor decking. Its improved stability and durability make it a suitable material for exterior applications where traditional wood might degrade more quickly. The aesthetic appeal of its darkened color also makes it a popular choice for interior design elements and premium furniture. The thermal modification process is considered an environmentally friendly alternative to chemical treatments, as it relies solely on heat.
