DALLAS - The manufacturer of Accoya wood, the world’s leading high-performance wood, will introduce Tricoya, the greatest evolution in MDF in 50 years, at AWFS in Las Vegas during a live stream “Ask the Expert” event:
- Who/What: Accoya and Tricoya expert Randy Clark, Tricoya user Gary Zacchia from Architectural Door Corporation, and Woodworking Network’s Bill Esler
- When: Thursday, July 20th, 11am – 12pm
- Where: Booth #7380
Backed by a 50-year warranty, Tricoya is made from wood fibers that have gone through a modification process called acetylation, similar to Accoya wood, that alters the cell structure of the wood rendering wood more dimensionally stable. Like Accoya wood, Tricoya panels are an unrecognizable food source for insects and prevents fungal decay.
Tricoya can be used on a variety of exterior applications that would not normally be considered ideal for any MDF products including façade cladding, fascia and soffit panels, window components, outdoor furniture, and play frames/tree houses. It can also be used in wet interior applications such as wall linings in swimming pools, bathrooms, wet rooms, and changing rooms.
