Grades
Through rigorous testing and research, Kebony has created distinct product grades to ensure your project has the look you want plus the strength and stability you need.
Kebony Clear
Kebony Clear is a neat, sophisticated wood with a subtle grain that is free of knots. It is the perfect balance of refined taste and natural authenticity that provides an effortless beauty to any application. Like all Kebony products, Kebony Clear has a deep brown color that over time will develop an elegant silver-gray patina. Produced from FSC®-certified Pinus Radiata, it stands as a top-rated choice for environmentally responsible builders and architects. Creating a look of approachable perfection is simple with Kebony Clear.
Kebony Clear products are modified throughout the entire board and can be further machined like any hardwood.
Kebony Character
With visible knots, it brings a natural and cozy atmosphere to your home. From roof terraces and balconies to garden terraces or wooden facades, Kebony Character can be used to create all kinds of outdoor areas.
As all Kebony wood, Kebony Character is a low-maintenance material that does not require any additional treatment beyond normal cleaning, leaving you more time to unwind and enjoy the beauty of the natural world around us.
Kebony Character products are partially modified and should not be further machined, or split, as untreated heartwood will be exposed. However, they can be cross-cut to length. After cross-cutting, the exposed ends should be treated with a wood preservative to ensure proper protection.
Performance
Kebony is a highly durable, sustainable wood with the aesthetics and performance of the best tropical hardwoods. It requires minimal maintenance while providing a low life-cycle cost and the peace of mind of a 30-year warranty.
Appearance
All Kebony woods have a deep brown color. Several possibilities are open to you.
The attractive brown color can be made permanent with an oil. This will let express with no variation the hot tones of our boards.
It is also possible to let our wood age, which will give it a beautiful silvery-grey patina over time. The speed of this graying process depends on the intensity of exposure to environmental elements like the sun and rain combined with the type of application.
Upgrade your look
In addition, Kebony gives all the chance to create the colour of your choice !
Whether you’re aiming for a natural silver patina over time or prefer to preserve or enhance the rich brown tones, Kebony provides outstanding compatibility with a wide range of coatings. Get grey from day one or play your creativity with coloured coatings.
