Accoya® and Tricoya® Coatings
High-performance coating systems for acetylated wood
Accoya® wood is made from sustainably sourced timber, modified through a proprietary acetylation process to deliver exceptional durability, stability and long-lasting beauty. With a warranty of up to 50 years above ground, it enables high-performance, low-maintenance applications such as windows, doors and cladding.
Tricoya® brings the same advanced technology to MDF panels, ensuring outstanding performance even in demanding exterior and high-moisture environments.
Sherwin-Williams coating systems are specifically designed to work in synergy with these substrates, enhancing durability while delivering superior finish and protection.
Proven performance and extended warranties
Sherwin-Williams coating systems for Accoya® and Tricoya® are rigorously tested to deliver proven long-term performance. Outdoor exposure trials approaching ten years have shown no signs of coating deterioration, supported by independent certifications including EN927 natural and accelerated weathering, liquid water permeability and mechanical resistance testing.
Thanks to the exceptional dimensional stability of acetylated wood, coatings are subjected to significantly less stress compared to traditional timber. This results in outstanding adhesion, superior weather resistance and extended service life.
Coating systems applied on Accoya and Tricoya can benefit from extended warranties of up to 15 years for both pigmented and translucent finishes, providing long-lasting protection and added peace of mind.
Designed for performance and sustainability
Accoya wood is manufactured using a proprietary acetylation process that enhances durability, stability and environmental performance. It offers:
- 50-year warranty above ground
- 25-year warranty in ground or freshwater
- Cradle to Cradle® Gold certification (Platinum for Material Health)
Tricoya extends these benefits to MDF panels, enabling durable performance even in humid or exterior environments.
