From the Maximo project library
From the board to the whole space.
Nordic character at architectural scale
Scandinavian Thermo identified in Maximo’s official Arketip project library. Exact catalog profile not verified.
Real projects, not exact-profile samples. Confirm the species, application and finish for your project.
Profile & surface planning
Milled for repeatable lines &
project-ready details.
Straight grain, characteristic knots and a clean Nordic tongue-and-groove expression. High-temperature thermal modification reduces the board’s moisture response compared with the same species untreated.
Finish & Maintenance Recommendations:
Choose a compatible exterior finish when color retention is desired, and confirm factory-prefinish options with the dealer. If left unfinished, the surface will gradually weather toward silver gray; timing and uniformity vary with exposure and detailing.
Lower moisture uptake helps reduce seasonal movement across board joints.
No added synthetic wood preservatives in the thermal process.
Reduced movement supports more predictable joints when the profile is installed correctly.
Available by consultation through Builders FirstSource Issaquah.
