Outdoor Wood Preservation

The natural enemies of solid wood materials include insects, sunlight, and moisture. Intense sunlight exposure can cause wood to warp and crack, while humid environments can reduce its stability. Therefore, it is generally not recommended to place indoor wooden furniture on balconies or in bathrooms.

When wood is used in outdoor environments, exposed to wind and rain, it is crucial to choose types of wood with extremely high stability. For harsh maritime environments, such as yachts and sailboats enduring year-round sunlight exposure and sea breeze corrosion, Burmese teak is often used. Teak has one of the lowest rates of expansion and contraction among all woods, making it resistant to deformation, corrosion, or cracking in various conditions. This wood is characterized by a high oil content; it becomes smoother with use, providing a slick feel. The natural oils secreted in teak protect the material itself, making it particularly suitable for making ship decks. Due to its desirable properties, teak is becoming increasingly rare and is gradually being replaced by other materials.

As high-quality woods like teak and cypress become scarce, more common outdoor woods like Southern pine or hemlock can be chosen for general purposes. These woods must undergo preservative treatments to significantly extend their lifespan. Preservative treatments vary and can include soaking in chemical agents or natural methods like charred cedar and carbonization, enhancing the wood's stability and corrosion resistance.

Rigorous Anti-Corrosion Process - Shou Sugi Ban Technique

For this project, a wooden fence was custom-ordered for a location on Yangmingshan, where the year-round misty conditions on the mountain are particularly challenging for wood. Therefore, the materials required multiple strict anti-corrosion processes.

The first step in the anti-corrosion process involved the use of ACQ (Alkaline Copper Quaternary) technology. The wood was neatly stacked layer by layer with wooden strips in between, allowing the chemical agent to uniformly penetrate the interior of the wood. Even when the wood is cut open, green traces of the preservative can still be seen inside.

The second anti-corrosion treatment was conducted outdoors using the Shou Sugi Ban technique, which involves charring the surface of the wood. Traditional Shou Sugi Ban involves setting up the wood in a triangular prism shape and smoking it from the bottom. The enclosed shape of the prism creates a chimney effect, allowing for even charring of the boards. Modern Shou Sugi Ban typically uses gas fuel to produce a stable flame, carefully toasting the surface along the grain of the wood to char it. After charring, the wood is quickly cooled with cold water. This method not only preserves the natural wood grain but also significantly extends the wood’s lifespan, making it resistant to insect damage and less likely to deform.

The wood treated with Shou Sugi Ban has a distinct flavor and creates a charming, vintage Japanese architectural vibe, which is very appealing.

Custom fences are designed with different styles to suit various functions, and you can even add a fence gate as shown in the image above.

Using Southern Pine to Beautify Old Walls

Beyond merely delineating space, wooden fences in courtyards play a crucial role in enhancing the environment! The beautiful wall shown in the photo was originally a dilapidated corrugated iron sheet, transformed by the Bokto team into a natural and upscale landscape. The designers used preservative-treated Southern Pine to cover the entire wall, employing the most efficient installation techniques. The construction was completed in a very short time, significantly altering the atmosphere of the space.

It's not just residential courtyards that can enjoy beautiful outdoor landscaping; factories and commercial spaces can also showcase a pleasant ambiance through natural wood. Contact Bokto Furniture now to customize your outdoor fencing!
