SECA

Description and main purpuse of use

SECA combines 100 years’ tradition of family owned business and the resulting depth of experience with innovation fuelled by constant contact with partners: both at the supply and at the market end.

Standard range of wood profiles is available in various different woods and sizes; it covers profiles for ceilings and walls, solid wood floors, structural timber and attractive decking for terraces.

Most common wood species used for SECA profiled timber

  • Spruce is a good solution for the interior and for facades which are not directly exposed to weather (in South Africa).
  • Siberian larch is generally considered as a very durable wood species. The slightly red surface turns grey after being exposed to weather without using a surface treatment.
  • Thermic treated pine is very durable solution for outdoor using. The manufacturing process of Thermo-Wood is based on the use of high temperature (185-225 °C) and steam. The process improves dimensional stability and biological durability of wood.
