THERMO ABACHI - DESCRIPTION:
Abachi is a tropical tree native to Africa. This material feels pleasant to the touch and has a beautiful, smooth, and fine texture. Its subtle growth rings and wood that is almost knot-free make it an attractive choice for your sauna project. The main characteristic of abachi is its low thermal conductivity, meaning it does not heat up significantly through the depth of the wood. Its key advantage lies not only in the fact that abachi benches do not heat up to the ambient temperature (for example, in a hot sauna), but above all in the fact that they very quickly adapt to the body temperature of the person sitting on them. Abachi has excellent thermal insulation properties (when the sauna temperature is 90–110 °C, the surface temperature of an abachi bench does not exceed 40 °C). Thermo Abachi sauna wood offers a high standard of processing together with a longer service life even in the demanding sauna environment. It has a fine and uniform structure. The dark cream color is usually consistent across the entire surface of the wood. The surface remains pleasant even at high sauna temperatures and does not burn the skin. Thermally modified Thermo Abachi wood is completely natural – the thermal modification process is carried out using only heat and steam, which makes the wood more durable and stable. This thermal treatment creates an attractive darker brown shade of the wood. We offer it as softline-profile cladding boards with an extended tongue, which visually eliminates the natural dimensional changes of wood caused by humidity variations.
