Treated Thermowood For Vincent Timber At Forge Mill Farm
We have treated and delivered 6,786 linear metres of Thermowood cladding supplied by Vincent Timber. Founded in 1923 Vincent Timber have gone through a period of growth to become one of the Midlands leading Timber Importers.
As part of the project, Vincent Timber supplied 18 cubic metres of the Thermowood cladding to their customer which has been treated with FireWright® natural fire-retardant timber treatment. FireWright were supplied the timber in loads throughout the course of weeks and were able to treat and kiln dry the Thermowood to specified moisture levels ready for installation.
Thermowood cladding offers several benefits for building exteriors. The modification process improves the cladding’s stability while reducing the risk of warping, cracking, or shrinking. This gives a longer lasting material life for the cladding. The thermal aspect of the modification process gives the appearance of a slightly darker colour enhancing its look while turning a natural grey colour after a prolonged period of time.
The stunning new project now meets Euroclass B s1, d0. The cladding was treated and returned to Vincent Timber complete with a Declaration of Performance, Constancy of Performance and a Fire Classification Report. The issuance of this documentation provides traceability and full documentation of the treatment along with verification that our treatment has been independently audited and tested by third party notified bodies. The treatment does not have to be re-applied to the cladding and will last the duration of the healthy timber’s life.
A great project to be involved in and another project completed with Vincent Timber. Great work from all those involved.
