The Knotwood product showcases a beautiful wood grain matte finish that closely resembles the colour of our hardwood timber planking – it’s aluminium that looks and feels like wood!

The natural beauty and timeless appeal of wood with the capabilities of aluminium. Knotwood uses a state-of-the-art sublimation process to create wood-like aluminium that’s greener, safer, stronger and easier to use than wood. From traditional warm woody hues to dark modern ashes, Knotwood has the most extensive range inspired from the natural world.

• Knotwood is stain and scratch resistant as a topcoat of specially developed, exterior grade paint is baked on to provide resistance to chipping, flaking and blistering that ensures the finish retains its look for longer.
• Being in Australia, fire resistance and resilience are important no matter where we live. This is where Knotwood’s benefits truly surpass the use wood. Knotwood is a non-combustible product that has been manufactured to meet relevant international fire standards.
• As Knotwood is made from high quality marine grade Aluminium rather than steel, the material reacts with the oxygen in the air to form an extremely thin layer of oxide. This naturally occurring layer provides excellent corrosion protection and is self-repairing if damaged. This anodising process naturally improves Knotwood’s resilience to corrosion also.
• Aluminium is incredibly light, with a density one third that of steel and a weight 50 percent less than wood when compared equally. A lightweight material means low transport costs, easy installation and handling while maintaining structural integrity in all types of environments and conditions.
• Knotwood is perfect for the outdoors as aluminium is great in direct sunlight as it remains cooler than most other materials. It naturally absorbs heat slowly but releases it quickly.
• Additionally, aluminium is perfect for wet, damp, shady environments. Unlike wood, Knotwood is non porous and will not swell, grow mould or mildew when exposed to wet conditions. As it doesn’t retain water, it’s easy to maintain as it doesn’t require regular sealing, making it a more practical solution than wood.
