Bronsø thermally treated wooden cladding is upcycled from of discarded material from a regular production of wooden goods. Sorting criteria today means substantial amounts of material is discarded, despite its high quality.
The wood is discarded due to knots, checks and other natural tree characteristics, which has no impact on the durability of the wood. These 'mistakes' means the wood is normally sent to a waste management facility for incineration, despite the woods' high value. Bronsø wood has a durability class 2, just as regular thermally treated wooden cladding. The product is used in application class 1-3. Thermally treated wood is a more climate conscious alternative to chemically impregnated wood or hardwood from the rainforest.
Bronsø gets its name from its bronze-golden colour, which is also reminiscent of caramel in both look and scent. Look to Augusthus for its use of Bronsø facade cladding in its inner yard.
