MAPEX is your exclusive Accoya® importer in Belgium and Luxembourg

Accoya®, the world’s most stable wood

About Accoya®

Accoya® has completely changed the way we think about wood. Through a revolutionary scientific process called wood acetylation, wood is modified from a pure form of vinegar to give it properties that go beyond those of (tropical) hardwood. This makes Accoya the most durable and stable wood in the world, unsurpassed in performance and aesthetics.

Accoya® allows you to compete with all materials for which wood was not previously a viable option. Accoya® is guaranteed for 50 years above ground and 25 years in ground or fresh water contact. Accoya® is always durability class 1.

Recently, Accoya® launched a new revolutionary product called Accoya Color Grey®. Accoya Color Grey® combines the beauty of real grey coloured wood with durability that lasts for years.

Accoya® is ideal for coating

Accoya® wood has shown improved coating lifetime performance with many types of coatings, resulting in extended maintenance intervals. The light colour of Accoya® wood allows for a wide range of colour finishes. Improved stability means film-forming coating systems last much longer. Accoya® wood is easier to coat, less preparation and sanding is required.
Easier to coat, less preparation and sanding required.

Accoya® is dimensionally stable

Accoya® wood’s superior dimensional stability (resistance to swelling and shrinkage) exceeds all commonly used species, including Teak, Sapele and Iroko. Accoya® wood has been tested over prolonged periods in all types of weathering conditions - above ground, below ground and even in water - and has been proven to withstand even the toughest of external environments.
