Read Silva Timber's Statement Regarding the Supply of Siberian Larch in the Wake of Russia's Invasion of Ukraine.
Silva ThermoWood® is an attractive, sustainable solid wood material produced using a chemical-free natural process involving heat and steam. This thermal modification process makes it durable, dimensionally stable, resin-free, and even changes its colour to a pleasing warm brown.
This ThermoWood Channel 10 profile is part of the Optima Series, a range of precision machined profiles that feature unique design details that make them easier to install and to help them perform better. Cladding profiles in the Optima series feature a discreet nail line for ease of installation together with a substantial overlap where the boards connect to accommodate the natural movement in wood.
It is possible to install the Optima Channel 10 profile either horizontally or vertically. A square-sided recess where the boards meet creates bold shadow lines that will accentuate either the height or width of the façade. Boards connect with a tongue and groove system for easy installation.

ThermoWood is produced from Finnish-grown European Redwood (Scandinavian Pine) which is heat-treated to temperatures in excess of 200 degrees Centigrade. This process improves the properties of Silva ThermoWood making it an ideal material for use in exposed areas such as external wall claddings.
The Optima Series is a range of precision machined cladding profiles designed and made by Silva for optimum performance.
Optima profiles feature unique design details that make them easier to install and to help them perform better. Optima profiles also look great – a cut above your average wood cladding.
Optima profiles are produced in 'high performance' wood species and come with a range of neat corner and trim solutions.
Wood is a hygroscopic material that takes up and releases moisture according to the temperature and relative humidity of the ambient air. Changes in the moisture content of wood will lead to variations in the dimensions of wood. It will shrink as it releases moisture and expands again as it takes up moisture.
Cladding profiles in the Optima Series feature a substantial overlap where the boards connect to accommodate this natural movement in the wood without exposing a gap.
This ThermoWood® Optima Channel 10 Cladding is graded on one face only. Boards are not reversible and, as such, some surface/roller marks may be expected on the rear of the boards.
