What timber finishes we offer with Accoya
Accoya is transformed through being charred and brushed to remove all of the char, creating visually striking and long-lasting timber products. These finishes have no char on them, they are for people who want more texture and light colours.
The charred and brushed finish uses the ancient Shou Sugi Ban technique, but goes a step further being swept clean revealing lighter wood tones beneath the charred surface for a textured, dynamic effect. These finishes bring out Accoya’s natural beauty while offering both protection and unique visual appeal, perfect for architectural cladding or decking.

Utilizing a double brushing technique, this finish enhances grain clarity and introduces modern sophistication to any environment.
Pika Pika features a unique textural quality and striking contrast, achieved through a single intense burn followed by double brushing. This process not only reveals the wood's character but also creates a captivating interplay of textures.
