Did you know that Platowood wood is also ideal for a wide range of garden applications? The sun is out, the thermostat can go down, and we’re spending more time in the garden, on the terrace, or balcony. Whether it’s for fences, garden sheds, decking, or even planters, furniture, or pergolas — with hydro-thermally modified Platowood, the possibilities are endless, and the result is always durable and aesthetic.
Highlighted by landscapers
At the invitation of our preferred dealer Brentjes, we recently gave a presentation to the Royal Association of Gardeners and Green Space Providers on the benefits of platonized wood in outdoor spaces.
Fences that last 50 years without treatment? That’s possible with Platowood — a big advantage over pressure-treated wood from garden centers. The key is ensuring the wood stays out of contact with soil and has adequate ventilation. Platowood Spruce is most commonly used for fences and for decking, Platowood Fraké is the best choice.
Naturally Weathering Beauty
Platowood wood can be used untreated outdoors. Without any finish, it develops a natural silver-grey patina over time. The speed of weathering depends on sunlight exposure and other weather conditions. Prefer a color? A stain finish is also available.
Projects in focus
In Sambeek, North Brabant, a stunning modern villa was completed with both the house and the poolhouse clad in Platowood Fraké, finished with a Natural finish.
