Notes to editors:
Accsys Technologies PLC (www.accsysplc.com) is a chemical
technology group whose primary focus is on the production of
Accoya(R) wood and technology licensing via its subsidiary, Titan
Wood Limited, which has manufacturing operations in Arnhem, the
Netherlands (through its subsidiary Titan Wood B.V.), a European
office in London, United Kingdom, an American office in Dallas,
Texas (via its subsidiary Titan Wood, Inc) and technology licencing
associated with the acetylation of wood elements via its subsidiary
Tricoya Technologies Limited. Any references in this announcement
to agreements with Accsys shall mean agreements with either Accsys
or its subsidiary entities unless otherwise specified. Accsys
Technologies PLC is listed on the London Stock Exchange AIM market
and on Euronext Amsterdam, under the symbols 'AXS'. Accsys'
operations comprise three principal business units: (i) Accoya(R)
wood production; (ii) technology development, focused on a
programme of continuous development of and improvements to the
process engineering and operating protocols for the acetylation of
solid wood and the development of technology for the acetylation of
wood elements; and (iii) the licensing of technology for the
production of Accoya(R) wood and Tricoya(R) wood elements across
the globe.
Accoya(R) wood (www.accoya.com ) is produced using Accsys'
proprietary patented acetylation technology, that effectively
converts sustainably grown softwoods and non-durable hardwoods into
what is best described as a "high technology wood". Distinguished
by its durability, dimensional stability and, perhaps most
importantly of all, its reliability (in terms of consistency of
both supply and quality), Accoya(R) wood is particularly suited to
exterior applications where performance and appearance are valued.
Unlike most tropical and European hardwoods, its colour does not
degrade when exposed to ultraviolet light. Moreover, the Accoya(R)
wood production process does not compromise the wood's strength or
machinability. The combination of UV resistance, dimensional
stability, durability and retained strength means that Accoya(R)
wood offers a wealth of new opportunities to architects, designers
and specifiers. These benefits result in lower maintenance and
total cost of ownership while using a higher sustainable and
environmental responsible building material. For a full archive of
Accoya(R) news, visit www.accoya.com/news.asp.
Tricoya(R) Wood Elements (www.tricoya.com) are produced using
Accsys' proprietary technology for the acetylation of wood chips,
and particles for use in the fabrication of panel products such as
medium density fibreboard and particle-board. These products
demonstrate enhanced durability and dimensional stability which
allow them to be used in a variety of applications that were once
limited to solid wood or man-made products. Exploitation of Accsys'
proprietary technology relating to Tricoya(R) Wood Elements is
carried out through Tricoya Technologies Limited. Tricoya(R) Wood
Elements are lauded as the first major innovation in the wood
composites industry in more than 30 years.
Wood Acetylation is a process which increases the amount of
'acetyl' molecules in wood, thereby changing its physical
properties. When carried out to a sufficient level throughout the
wood, this process protects wood from rot by making it "inedible"
to most micro-organisms and fungi, without - unlike conventional
treatments - making it toxic. It also greatly reduces the wood's
tendency to swell and shrink, making it less prone to cracking and
ensuring that, when painted, it requires dramatically reduced
maintenance.
Accsys Technologies is the trading name of Titan Wood Limited.
ACCOYA(R) , TRICOYA(R) and the Trimarque Device are registered
trademarks owned by Titan Wood Limited ("TWL"), a wholly owned
