| Using a chemical-free process invented in Finland, Superior Thermowood would heat-treat lumber at temperatures higher than that used in traditional kiln processes, making the wood durable and not prone to warping or rotting. We perform thermal survey services that represent the time and temperature of your heat-treat furnace process. With the MADI material, we use a special chemical composition and heat-treat cycles that produce a unique microstructure more favorable to normal, less costly machining methods. |
