Thermally modified wood is engineered wood that has been modified by a controlled pyrolysis process of wood being heated to (> 180 °C) in an oxygen free atmosphere. This process changes to the chemical structures of wood's cell wall components lignin , cellulose and hemicellulose which decreases its hygroscopy and thus increases dimensional ...

Wood treated with this process is often used for cladding or siding, flooring, furniture and windows.

Treated wood pallets must be stamped on two opposite sides, indicating either HT for heat treated or MB for methyl bromide treatment. Pallets made of non-wood materials such as steel , aluminum , plastic , or engineered wood products, such as plywood , oriented strand board , or corrugated fiberboard do not need IPPC approval, and are ...
