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.
Silva's Tiga Rainscreen cladding is installed horizontally with open joints, which enables good air circulation and allows for dimensional movement. It is used in conjunction with a unique fastening system that allows boards to be installed without any visible fixings. This simple, quick, and easy to install clip engages the board from the rear with 2 discrete component parts.
Tiga Rainscreen is chamfered on both edges enabling the boards to overlap and to drain water to the outside. The open joint creates strong shadow lines, which will accentuate the width of a façade. This type of cladding is suited to contemporary architectural styles.
