Mataverde ThermaWood Hem Fir siding is a beautiful and high-performance exceptional real wood siding option that can be used in traditional tongue and groove siding profiles. The material is produced in a specialized vacuum kiln using steam, pressure and low temperatures. Together, the steam and the pressure allows Hem-Fir (Hemlock) to be thermally modified at lower temperatures, producing a unique wood product with high performance and exceptional beauty.

Mataverde ThermaWood thermally modified Hem Fir siding
Mataverde ThermaWood is manufactured by heating the wood to a temperature of 160º C (320º F) while it is protected with steam, under pressure. Besides providing protection, the pressurized steam also affects the chemical changes taking place in the wood. As a result of the carefully controlled thermal modification process, Mataverde ThermaWood is created. Its color darkens, it is far more stable than normal wood in conditions of changing humidity, and its thermal insulation properties are improved.
