Headquartered in Oslo, Norway, Kebony is the leading global modified wood brand. Underpinned by proven and patented timber modification technologies, it produces an enhanced wood of superior quality that is both environmentally friendly and cost-effective.
From its production facilities located in Skien, Norway, and Flanders, Belgium, Kebony redefines standards in the timber industry and new possibilities for wood as a sustainable construction material. Kebony has sales and distribution across Scandinavia spanning into Europe, North America and the rest of the world.
The company has received numerous awards and accolades for its environmentally friendly technology and innovation, including being named a World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer, repeated recognition as a Global Cleantech 100 company, and a 2019 Building, Design + Construction Top 101 Products Reader’s Choice Winner.
Fully compliant with EU Timber Legislation, Kebony technologypermanently transforms sustainable wood species such as pine into finished products with characteristics comparable—and in some cases better-performing—to those of precious tropical hardwoods. This unique, patented technology is a process whereby sustainably sourced wood species are impregnated with furfuryl alcohol, which is derived from agricultural crop waste. With the addition of heat, the furfuryl polymer is permanently grafted into the wood cell wall, resulting in greatly improved durability and dimensional stability, making the wood strong and resistant to biological decay and harsh weather conditions.
Through active innovation and forward thinking, we will continue to produce beautiful, long-lasting and environmentally friendly wood products. The company will promote and practice social responsibility to improve the environment in a way that builds a better future.
This pecky cypress from Louisiana gets it's characteristic look from a condition caused by a fungal attack that causes long, narrow burrows or cavities in the wood. The fungus primarily attacks older cypress trees from the “canopy” or “umbrella” down. Once the tree is cut down, or harvested, the fungal attack stops, leaving the beautiful, unique pecky patterns.

In rustic or knotty grades of lumber, there will be a percentage of degrade during the milling process. Some knots may shake lose and/or fall out during the milling process. Mason’s Mill is not liable for these defects in moldings produced from knotty grades of lumber.
Pecky Cypress will lack consistency in the amount of “peck” throughout the piece as well as from piece to piece. Pecky Cypress is characteristically brittle. Some splitting in millwork and S4S should be expected and accounted for.
No returns will be accepted on any custom-milled Pecky Cypress products including S2S, S3S, S4S and molding millwork.
