A high-performance sustainable wood material, Accoya is stable, durable and resists rot. Applications include windows, doors, decking and siding. The wood is created with an acetylation process, which increases the already naturally-occurring acetyl content of wood. The result is a reduction in the wood’s ability to absorb water, lending enhanced stability and durability.
Judge’s Comment:“A transformative product making wood a resilient product while being sensitive to sustainable harvesting.”
