What We Offer

Three Treatment Services Under One Roof

Service 1

Kiln Drying

Precision drying to 12–15% MC

Our fully automated kiln brings timber to a stable 12–15% moisture content — preventing warping, shrinkage, and dimensional movement after installation. For Kandy's furniture and joinery businesses working with high-value hardwoods like teak and mahogany, kiln-dried timber is the professional standard. Treated timber is delivered directly to your Kandy premises.

  • Target: 12–15% moisture content across all species
  • Suitable for construction, furniture, doors, windows, and export
  • Drying time: 3–12 days depending on species and thickness
  • Calibrated meters verify moisture at multiple points per batch
Service 2

Vacuum Pressure Impregnation (VPI)

Full-core Boron Borax protection

Kandy's humid highland climate accelerates fungal growth and timber degradation if wood is not properly treated. Our VPI process drives 5% Boron Borax preservative deep into the wood core at 10 bar (145 PSI), providing long-lasting protection against termites, wood borers, and fungal decay — even after the timber is cut and machined. Backed by a 10-year warranty.

  • 10 bar (145 PSI) pressure drives preservative to the wood core
  • Protects against termites, borers, and fungal decay
  • 10-year warranty against pest contamination
  • Safe, non-toxic — no heavy metals, arsenic, or solvents
Service 3

  • Core heated to 56°C for a minimum of 30 minutes
  • Accepted in 180+ countries for international export

Common Questions from Kandy Customers

Do you deliver treated timber to Kandy?

Yes. We offer island-wide delivery including to Kandy, Peradeniya, Katugastota, Gampola, Matale, and surrounding areas. Many Kandy customers send timber to us for treatment and we deliver back to their site, factory, or construction project. Delivery is arranged at the time of quoting.

Which timber species do you treat for Kandy customers?

We treat rubberwood, pine, mahogany, teak, nadun, kumbuk, imported hardwood, and other species. Kandy area customers frequently send us teak and mahogany for kiln drying prior to furniture production, and rubberwood for VPI treatment.

Is kiln drying worth it for timber used in Kandy's climate?

Yes — particularly for Kandy's highland climate, which has higher humidity and more frequent rainfall than coastal areas. Timber that has not been kiln-dried to a stable moisture content will continue to absorb and release moisture seasonally, causing joints to open, boards to warp, and finishes to fail. Kiln drying eliminates this movement.
