Dry Wood Builds Better

It's a fact that dry wood builds better than wet. There are important
benefits because TimberSIL® wood is a dry product, in addition to providing an
effective barrier to rot, decay, and common wood problems:
  • Shrinkage problems associated with final drying are minimized.
  • Increased strength and stiffness:
    Wet treated lumber is prone to sagging and has reduced strength.
  • More uniform in size.
  • Better nail and bolt holding power.
  • Lighter in weight.
  • Can be easily painted or stained.
  • TimberSIL® wood Products can be used indoors and outdoors.

Minimizing Most Shrinkage Problems

TimberSIL® wood employs a patented heating process that removes moisture
during the process—not after. TimberSIL® does not use a re drying process like
other manufacturers. The TimberSIL® process removes unnecessary water
from the product during the process, so it won’t come out later resulting in
shrinkage. TimberSIL® is effectively pre-shrunk, becoming more dimensionally
stable and stronger—especially as a result of the patented, wood-glass matrix
manufacturing process.

The unique technology that produces TimberSIL® wood lumber, and the
reduction to 19% moisture content, ensures that products will undergo limited
dimensional changes, shrinkage or warpage after installation.

TimberSIL® wood products are produced under controlled conditions, and will have the opportunity to stabilize before final inspection and packaging. In the TimberSIL® manufacturing process, an advanced technology is employed that creates the permanent protection in the wood and causes the wood to dry uniformly.

Homeowners and builders can really benefit from this marriage of wood and glass! TimberSIL® is many
times stronger than composite products; because the glassy portion parallels the grain of wood, greatly increasing
strength. The wood fibers are stronger, causing nails, screws, and fasteners to hold more tightly because the
glassy portion strengthens the fibers. TimberSIL® products maintain their shape better because the glass in
TimberSIL® is resistant to warping. TimberSIL® products are Class A fire retardants because glass’s natural
resistance to fire helps to overcome the combustible properties of wood.
