Feature Grade Thermally Modified Timber with Butterfly Knots

Rustic, feature-grade thermally modified timber. With beautiful knot detailing and natural characteristics,  JSC TMT Taiga is our feature-grade thermally modified timber offering. With a more unique ‘knotted’ appearance, TMT Taiga is suitable for use across a range of interior and exterior applications, including cladding, interior linings, battens, and more.

The chemical-free, thermal modification process finishes the timber in a rich brown tone, enhancing the knot detailing. It is sourced from Oy Lunawood Ltd in Europe and profiled locally by JSC into New Zealand-approved profiles.
