MOLECULAR STRENGTH AND CHARACTER
SSi HAS REVIVED — AND IMPROVED UPON — THE ANCIENT TRADITION OF THERMALLY MODIFIED HARDWOOD.
Vikings discovered that burning the surface of cut wood made it more resistant to the effects of outdoor exposure. Today, SSi has discovered the perfect thermo-molecular modification process for modern building standards. High-temperature heat and steam, applied through a highly technical, computer-controlled process, reduces the wood’s moisture content, altering the structure of wood on a cellular level so that it is virtually impervious to rot, mildew, and decay.
BENEFITS OF SMOKEWOOD™

 |
 |
 |
 |
| Outstanding dimensional stability, surface durability, and rot-resistance. | Reduced expansion, shrinking, swelling and water absorption as compared to conventionally treated wood. | Reduced susceptibility to fungi, mold, and insect infestation. | Minimal maintenance. | A resulting natural rich brown color that requires no stain (but it can be stained or painted, if desired). | “Smooth grain” and “heavy grain” options. | A natural, chemical-free green alternative to chemically preserved wood or engineered products. |
| Use Smokewood™ in both interior and exterior applications where weather-related decay and stability are essential: |
