About Us

CSI [Specialities] Ltd is the sole UK Agent for OY SWM Wood Ltd from Finland

Founded in 1998, SWM Wood is a stand-alone production unit based in Mikkeli, Finland. This independence has allowed the company to work closely with key supplier sawmill operations to ensure that the best possible and most suitable raw materials are used in their high quality thermal modification. All of the raw material used by SWM Wood is from 3rd party certified FSC or PEFC sources.

Thermowood® is a durable, dimensionally stable and eco-friendly timber

  1. Enhanced durability against biological agents
  2. Improved dimensional stability 
  3. No volatile organic compounds
  4. Less thermal conductivity
  5. Lower moisture content
  6. Less variation in mechanical properties along the length of the timber

Our Facilities & Stock

Our Ex Quay facilities at Goole have developed to offer our clients the best possible service. We provide a comprehensive stock of timber located in undercover storage facilities at the port of Goole, ideally located for access to the motorway network.   

Our Business

Our business is predominantly geared to support UK importers and merchants. Through a hybrid stock position, we are able to offer competitive rates for forward, direct ex-mill loads, as well as servicing pack lots from landed UK stock meeting “just in time” requirements. Additionally, we support and direct architects and specifiers towards stockists of added value products such as cladding and decking.

No chemicals are used in the production of Thermowood® or Noir® products making them environmentally friendly and fully recyclable.
