Thermalwood Canada

ThermalWood Canada is a manufacturing plant which specializes in thermally modifying any species of wood, using a heat and steam system that requires zero chemical additives. Located in Bathurst, New Brunswick, ThermalWood Canada is a family-owned business who prides themselves on processing any species of wood, with a speciality in hardwoods. This heating process essentially cooks the wood, improving its resistance to decay, and creating a uniform dark colouration throughout the thickness of the lumber. This allows woods like maple, birch, ash, oak, and other hardwoods, which are normally used for indoor projects, to be modified for outdoor applications, like siding, paneling, and decking. ThermalWood Canada works with guitar manufacturers. The thermal modifying process creates humidity resistance bodies and necks, that produce stability. This allows musicians the ease of playing without re-tuning their guitar every 15 or 20 minutes. The unique tone replaces 20 to 35 years of natural air drying to give the guitars a vintage sound. They also work with architects, designers, contractors, and end users to find a thermally modified option that best suits their needs. President of ThermalWood Canada, Bob Lennon, also created “The Northern Heat Report” video series, as a way to sit and create important dialogue with some of the region’s best and brightest leaders. The term “Northern Heat” best describes their approach to business and life. You can watch it here: They bring the heat to their own work, ensuring a vibrant and strong region ripe with opportunities. But they don’t forget other important leaders, the underestimated, who are also turning up the heat.
