Thermovacuum is an innovative and sustainable process to produce a new type of thermic modified wood under vacuum with high value (TVW). With high resistance and durability properties. Thermovacuum is the combination between a energy-efficient process of vacuum drying and a heat treatment, which allows to obtain the following objectives:
- market penetration of thermally modified wood offering a solution that is cheap, environmentally friendly and of high quality
- Encouraging the replacement of imported tropical woods with those produced locally increased in their properties, thus preventing the exploitation of valuable resources and significantly reducing the environmental impact due to the transport of logs over long distances and the associated costs of such operation.
