The investigation is based on influence wood by external factors, either in its natural form or a protective layer surface treatment. It resulted from study that durability viewpoint, it not always advantageous paint facade. Yakisugi, thermal modification for involves burning create layer, has shown better properties, which, combination lower need maintenance, can be considered leading treatment facades. From an perspective, like wood, demonstrated advantages conventional paints. Paints often come maintenance requirements should carried out correctly avoid extensive costs. Cost important factor decisive when users choose What determines relationship between intervals. paints leads large financial costs during working life facade, which differs Yakisugi facade maintenance-free. order meet growing demands national level global scale, unconventional treatments promoted future.
