Degmeda "Natural" Thermo Pine
Authentic and expressive, Degmeda “Natural” is an unoiled finish that reveals the dramatic beauty of the Shou Sugi Ban process on thermally modified pine. Our precise charring method selectively burns away the softer springwood, exposing a deep contrast between the dark, recessed grain and the lighter summerwood. This creates a highly tactile surface with sculptural depth and visual intensity.
The engineered core of thermally modified Pinus Radiata ensures this raw finish is built on a foundation of exceptional dimensional stability and weather resistance. It holds its structural integrity whether left to age into a silvery patina or enhanced with oil to deepen its tones.
“Natural” Thermo Pine is ideal for projects seeking a bold, honest material expression. It offers architects and builders the freedom to let each board develop its own patina or to customize the finish post-installation, delivering an unfiltered, versatile, and enduring facade.
