For your next project, why not consider Dragon Timber? A modern take on the traditional Japanese method of charring timber it comes with an incredible 10 year warranty on its coating finish!

The traditional Japanese method (also known as Yakisugi) has been used on small projects for generations as a way of enhancing and preserving wood. However, unlike other uncoated forms of charred timber, DragonWOOD does not ash or rub off its char onto objects such as clothes through the use of a special thermo-applied coating. With this and the reassurance of extended warranties, is ideal for large scale commercial applications, providing a fantastic return on investment from its unique appearance.

The timber itself can be selected from a range of species, mainly the incredibly sustainable and cost effective Nordic Spruce, coming with a 25 year service life and a 10 year warranty for the coating that comes in a variety of fantastic and unique colours on exterior applications.  

Andrew Goto from Timber Focus had this to say of how Dragon Timber fits in with BCL’s system:

“The BCL panel system is ideal to install Dragon Timber for aesthetic purposes, functionality and durability. This is because there are no exposed nails meaning the finish is not compromised and ensures the timber will meet its coatings 10 year service life. The Dragon Timber is also prefinished therefore it fits in with BCL’s rapid installation times and it can be cut in a wide range of lengths to suit all systems.”

DragonWOOD can be treated with a factory applied lacquer of fire protection up to Euro Class B to meet Building Regulations and Construction Products Regulations. The timber is also FSC certified, making this product ideal for modern commercial applications.
