Splitting and cracking

Wood expands and contracts when exposed to variations in
humidity and temperature. As it dries, wood contracts unevenly
resulting in the appearance of cracks. While these can seem to
be cause for concern, they have no impact on the mechanical
properties of the product and therefore do not fall within the
scope of the guarantee.
4.6

Knots

Knots mark the places where branches were attached. The
quantity and size depends on the species of wood and the
sorting process. For outdoor installations, small adherent knots
are acceptable.
4.7

Surface mould

Mould, caused by microscopic fungi, can grow on wood,
particularly on resinous species, on which the growth can
appear as "blueing". It is a surface phenomenon, exacerbated
by heat, humidity and inadequate aeration and is characterised
by stains ranging from light to dark blue. They can be removed
by wiping the surface.
Remember that class IV treated wood is protected against
attack by fungi that could destroy the physical and mechanical
properties of the wood
.
4.8

Joined wood

To ensure the highest quality in the selection of our wood, it
is sorted meticulously before planing. Sections that features
defects on both sides are removed and the wood is then joined
together (see image).
This is no way penalises the mechanical properties of the wood.
4.9

Curved wood

Due to the constant pressure exerted by the water, the walls of the pool may curve slightly over time.
This phenomenon, attributable to the natural elasticity of wood, will stabilise of its own accord and in no
way would lead to failure of the wooden slats.
It is not a defect, and would not constitute grounds for a guarantee claim.
