 At Black’s Farmwood, we’ve spent decades sourcing the best sustainable and high-performance wood products for homeowners, builders, architects, and designers. One of the most exciting innovations in the industry today is Accoya® wood—a modified, long-lasting, and incredibly stable wood that’s changing the game for exterior and interior applications. Accoya is the answer if you’re looking for a sustainable, ultra-durable, and low-maintenance wood that performs better than tropical hardwoods or traditional softwoods. What Is Accoya Wood? Accoya is an acetylated wood made from fast-growing, responsibly sourced radiata pine. Through a non-toxic modification process called acetylation, the wood’s cellular structure is permanently transformed, making it: ✔ Exceptionally durable (50+ years above ground, 25+ years in ground or water) ✔ Highly stable (resists swelling, shrinking, and warping) ✔ Resistant to rot, fungi, and insects ✔ Non-toxic and sustainable (FSC® certified and Cradle to Cradle Gold-certified) Unlike pressure-treated lumber, Accoya does not rely on harmful chemicals. It’s safe for humans, pets, and marine environments, making it a perfect alternative to tropical hardwoods like teak, ipe, or mahogany. No Prefinishing, Staining, or Water Sealing Required Unlike many exterior wood products, Accoya does not require stains, sealers, or water-repellent coatings to maintain its performance. It naturally resists water absorption, which helps prevent cracking, splitting, and decay—giving it a significant advantage over traditional wood decking, siding, and cladding. Natural, Grey, and Custom Prefinished Accoya Accoya is available in two beautiful natural color options:
Why Accoya Is Ideal for San Francisco Bay Area Projects Traditional wood products often struggle with expansion, contraction, and rot due to the Bay Area’s coastal climate, fog, and temperature swings. Accoya’s unmatched dimensional stability and durability make it the best choice for applications where longevity and low maintenance are crucial. Some key benefits for Bay Area homeowners, builders, and designers include: ✔ Minimal maintenance – Requires less repainting or refinishing compared to other woods. ✔ Superior performance in all climates – Holds up against rain, sun, and humidity. ✔ Sustainable choice – Responsibly sourced and a greener alternative to imported hardwoods.
