Kebony Technology
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.
Natural Mission
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.
Quarrix ProTect FURRING STRIP for SIDING
Quarrix ProTect Furring Strips provide long-lasting protection that prevents moisture damage within the walls. Uniquely designed with small air channels to allow bulk water and other moisture to easily escape behind cladding, and air to flow vertically and horizontally to keep the wall assembly dry.
Made of durable, HDPE plastic, ProTect Furring Strips are resistant to warping, splitting, mold and mildew. Each piece is dimensionally die-cut so that you receive an identical piece every time. Approximately 1 linear foot of ProTect Furring Strips will be needed for every 1 square foot of wall covering.
