alcohol, an agricultural by-product, modifying the wood to maintain
the same properties of tropical hardwoods but without the same
contribution to the carbon footprint. Kebony wood is cost effective
and a rich brown colour, making it a natural choice for this state-
of-the-art pavilion which embraces the environment and places an
importance on sustainability.

The Valle San Nicolás Clubhouse demonstrates an awareness of the
ever-growing demand for luxurious wellbeing experiences which are
committed to sustainable construction and the protection of natural
sites such as the local Mexican panorama. Other finishing touches
serve to complement the cross-laminated timber (CLT) structure,
including volcanic stone and an American red oak roof.

Nina Landbø, International Sales Manager at Kebony added: “The
Valle San Nicolás development honours a strong commitment to
sustainable construction with no compromise to the building’s
inspired aesthetic. The installation of Kebony with its natural
earthy tones promises high durability and stability, requiring little
maintenance, thus making it the perfect choice for an outdoor
waterfront pavilion deck.” dw
