Accoya wood
Accoya Out-Performs Most Timbers
Research into Accoya™ wood began in the 1920s and has been a continuous progression of research and development since then.
With timber suitable for the manufacturing of doorsets available by the end of 2007, we at JCK are very keen to implement the usage of it as soon as possible.
With its durability being better than redwood or hardwood whilst at the same time it's wholelife costs show substantial long term savings. We think it is a winning material for manufacturers, contractors and also the end user – the home owner.
