Biowood gives you greater design freedom by combining the warmth and look of timber with the durability and versatility of a modern composite. Architects, designers and homeowers are loving it.
Made with 69% PEFC-certified wood, it is lighter than many alternatives and has a higher wood content making it ideal for garage door cladding and curved applications. It is also well suited to pool areas and coastal locations, while providing a fast, pre-finished solution for internal linings.
Here are seven reasons to consider Biowood for your next project.
1. Premium timber look and feel, without the upkeep, warping, splitting or splinters
Get the warmth and character of natural timber without many of the maintenance headaches.
Biowood won’t splinter, crack or rot and is resistant to termites and moisture – delivering a premium architectural finish with less ongoing maintenance.
2. Long-lasting performance in Australia’s harsh conditions + 15 year warranty
Biowood has been used in Australia for more than 15 years and is designed to withstand demanding conditions.
Its resistance to water, termites, rot and decay makes it a durable option for internal and external applications.
3. Create curves easily – no heating or complex processes required
Want to add curves to a facade, wall, kitchen island or architectural feature?
Biowood can be back-sliced to create curves down to approximately a 600mm radius, without heat-gunning or complicated forming processes.
That means more design freedom without making installation unnecessarily difficult.
4. Lightweight garage door cladding with no unnecessary engineering
Create the increasingly popular integrated garage door look without adding excessive weight.
Biowood’s lightweight composition allows it to be used as garage door cladding without additional engineering, helping the garage blend seamlessly into the facade.
5. Pre-finished and ready to install – no painting, no mess
Biowood arrives pre-finished, so there’s no painting or staining required after installation.
That means less mess, fewer finishing steps and less time on site. It’s also non-toxic and can be used for interior walls, ceilings, bulkheads, kitchen islands and other features
6. Lightweight soffits and eaves + termite, rot and water resistant
Biowood delivers the warmth of timber for soffits and eaves in a lightweight lining that’s resistant to rot, termites and water.
Concealed fixings also help achieve the clean finish expected on contemporary homes.
7. A smart option around pools – chlorine, water and rot resistant with minimal maintenance and easy rejuvenation if required
Biowood is resistant to chlorine, water and rot, making it ideal for architectural features around pools and wet areas.
It requires minimal maintenance and, if needed, the surface can be rejuvenated to refresh its appearance.
