DALLAS – The manufacturer of Accoya wood will introduce Tricoya, a new MDF product for exterior and wet interior applications, at AWFS Fair July 19 – 22, at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
Tricoya is made from wood fibers that have gone through a chemical modification process called acetylation, similar to Accoya wood, that alters the cell structure of the wood. The process is designed to make wood more dimensionally stable.
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.
