Een mogelijk alternatief voor Radiata Pine:
This year we were pleased to see positive results from long-term trials of Accoya made from fast growing Taeda pine from
Argentina and Uruguay with ideal growing conditions and forestry practices and mills that can meet our requirements. For
example, Accoya cladding made from Taeda has been used to clad the Starbucks building in Wakefield, UK. Installed in 2020,
it has shown the same durability and performance as Radiata pine. Being able to source Taeda from South America also
makes it an ideal option for supply to the Kingsport, Tennessee plant. Over the coming year we will be continuing this work
with the view to beginning official commercial production of Accoya with Taeda
