Innovative Technology
KLAASWOOD uses an innovative, 2nd generation hydrolysis technology that is changing the landscape of thermally modified wood.
Appearance
2nd generation hydrolysis allows a larger breadth of species modification, providing a deeper range of colors and improved aesthetics.
Strength
The improved process allows wood modification to be achieved with lower temperatures, which is less stressful on the wood and results in a stronger, more stable product.
Durability
The enhanced durability allows KLAASWOOD to be certified at Class 1 durability, the highest available class that extends the warranty to 20 years.
Sustainability
The 2nd generation process requires less energy, lowering KLAASWOOD’s carbon footprint and its impact on the environment.
Affordability
The 2nd generation technology allows for lower production costs, which are passed on to our clients.
Availability
KLAASWOOD sources and manufactures all of its wood locally in the US, allowing us to provide faster service and larger volumes.
