Conventional Dry Kiln operations have represented the primary drying of lumber for over 50 years.

Imagine, wood that’s dimensionally stable, chemical free, of consistent quality, and yet competitively priced. Wood that effectively replaces traditional kiln dried and processed lumber.

|
• Practical in the past, traditional kiln dryers
are widely available
• Accepted drying solution
• Any species can be dried
• Competitively priced
• Weight considerations for handling and shipping
• Dried lumber for outdoor applications typically requires chemical treatment to prevent insect attack and rot
• Chemical’s are of serious environmental concerns
by consumers and manufacturers
|
|
|
|
• Most species can be dried
• Competitively priced – usually slightly higher than traditional kiln process
• Lighter weight than the traditional process
• No chemical treatments required for insect
and rot resistance
• Numerous Environmental benefits for
consumers and manufacturers
• Emissions are recycled in the “closed loop” system
• Underutilized species can be transformed
into usable lumber
• Not recommended for structural or below
grade applications
• Specialized EcoDryer equipment is just becoming available in North America
