OVERVIEW
Accoya® wood was selected for the façade of the SILT building, a new coastal hotel and casino in Middelkerke, Belgium, for its unmatched durability and stability in harsh coastal environments. Accoya was chosen for its exceptional resistance to salt, moisture, and environmental stress, ensuring the façade remains strong and visually appealing for years to come.
The wood's patented acetylation process significantly reduces water absorption, minimizes shrinkage and swelling, and increases resistance to rot and pests. With its lightweight nature, Accoya facilitated efficient transport and installation, allowing the project to be completed within a year, while its eco-friendly properties—being FSC® and Cradle to Cradle® Gold certified—add to its sustainability.
Accoya wood guarantees long-lasting performance and aesthetic appeal, making it the ideal material for this iconic coastal structure.
