Rain or shine – Stora Enso has you covered
At Stora Enso, we want to make it as easy as possible for you to build with prefabricated Sylva™ and that includes offering simple and effective coatings, linings and membranes to protect your building project. Many of our services enhance the overall visual surface of your elements and improve construction site efficiencies and safety.
A full line of industry-leading protective coatings and membranes
Coatings and membranes can save thousands of valuable construction hours and resources, reduce the risk of expensive remedial work, and dramatically extend a building’s lifespan. With the rise of low-carbon design, we’re experiencing incredible advances in the development of protection available for mass timber. But how do you know which products are appropriate for your building project? And how do you know the site contractor will apply the necessary coatings and best practices on-site according to the climatic and regional regulations?
The simple solution is to let Stora Enso protect your wood products for you. We offer a comprehensive service to advise you with experienced technicians on the right protective measures.
We operate an automated state-of-the-art coating line that applies the highest quality water-based coatings - an investment of over nine million euros that we put towards our customers’ success.
Hydrophobic Coating
The hydrophobic coatings we apply repel water and protect Sylva™, helping maintain a stable moisture content during construction.
Applied in factory-controlled conditions, they prevent water and dirt from entering and at the same time allow moisture to escape. The coating is highly weather resistant and is not affected during lifting and handling.
