Notes to editors:
Accsys (Accsys Technologies PLC) is a fast-growing business with a purpose:
changing wood to change the world. The company combines chemistry, technology
and ingenuity to make Accoya(®) wood and Tricoya(®) wood elements: high
performance wood products that are extremely durable and stable, opening new
opportunities for the built environment and giving the world a choice to build
sustainably. Accsys transforms fast-growing, certified sustainable wood into
building materials with an up to 50-year warranty, locking carbon stored in
the wood into useful products for decades, with performance characteristics
that match or better those of non-renewable, resource-depleting and polluting
alternatives. Accsys is listed on the London Stock Exchange AIM market and
on Euronext Amsterdam, under the symbols 'AXS'. Visit www.accsysplc.com
(http://www.accsysplc.com)
Accoya(®) solid wood is sustainable, durable, and stable with exceptional
performance, finish and sustainability. Accsys' proprietary acetylation
process makes the wood more dimensionally stable and because it is no longer
easily digestible, extremely durable. It is one of very few building materials
to be Cradle to Cradle Certified™ at the Gold level, with a Platinum rating
for Material Health, confirming that no harmful or toxic additives or
chemicals are present to leach out into the environment. Primary applications
for Accoya(®) wood include windows, doors, cladding and decking, where the
combination of performance and sustainability benefits compete favorably
against hardwoods, plastics, metals and concrete. Visit www.accoya.com
(http://www.accoya.com)
Tricoya(®) acetylated wood elements are produced for use in the fabrication
of panel products such as medium density fibreboard (MDF). Panel products made
with Tricoya(®) wood elements are truly durable and stable enough for use
outdoors and in wet environments, unlocking new possibilities for design and
construction. They have been lauded as the first major innovation in the wood
composites industry in more than 30 years and bring the flexibility of
traditional panel products and sustainability benefits of wood to a whole new
range of applications. Visit www.tricoya.com (http://www.tricoya.com)
