Maximo Wood, a brand of GMX, is expanding into Southern California through a new dealer partnership with Valencia Lumber & Panel, Van Nuys, CA. This will expand the availability of Maximo Wood’s entire portfolio of Thermo brand products throughout Southern California.
The Maximo brand makes thermally modified wood products affordable and accessible for builders and designers, while offering advanced technology and aesthetic appeal that architects can specify with confidence.
“Valencia Lumber is known as a dealer with an appreciation of premium building materials and how they influence design,” said Marcelo V. Guimarães, marketing director of Maximo Wood. “This is a great fit for the Maximo Thermo brand and its growing reputation as a leader in sustainable, high-performance wood solutions.”
According to Dustin Seeman, partner at Valencia Lumber, “The Maximo Thermo brand of wood products is the perfect solution to round out our cladding and ceiling offerings with the aesthetic and performance that is very much in demand.”
Maximo Thermowood offers species such as Thermo Ayous, Scandinavian Thermo, Thermo Clear Radiata, and Thermo Ash.
Maximo utilizes an advanced, scientifically proven thermal modification process that uses only heat and steam to dramatically reduce the wood’s sugar and moisture content. This makes the wood resistant to insects and exceptionally lightweight. Maximo’s patented process transforms conventional wood into a high-performance product with enhanced dimensional stability and durability.
The process reduces labor costs, enabling easier handling, machining and installation, along with a 20-year durability warranty for both interior and exterior use.
It is therefore perfect for enhancing walls, ceilings, and more, both indoors and outdoors.
