Sweden's OrganoWood AB launches a brand new product, OrganoWood Nowa, with biocide-free chemistry, a sustainable and natural.
OrganoWood Nowa may look like an ordinary piece of wood, but it is modified by cross-linking the wood fibers, which gives the wood a high resistance to rot. This has been possible by using advanced, award-winning chemistry at a high level, which has been recognized by the last two years' Nobel Prize in Chemistry (2021 - "for the development of asymmetric organocatalysis" and 2022 - "for the development of click chemistry").
OrganoWood Nowa has been developed since 2015 and tested in the field and via accelerated tests since 2017. In recent years, Nowa has undergone a variety of tests where the Company obtained very good test results, including EN 113-2 resulting in Durability Class 1 according to EN 350 (natural durability), and that with 100% of the test pieces.
OrganoWood isnow rebuilding its production to be able to start delivering OrganoWood Nowa in the spring of 2023.
OrganoWood was founded in 2010 as a joint-venture between OrganoClick AB and Kvigos AB and is based on scientific breakthroughs in modification of biofibers.
