Inspired by tradition and constructed using age-old techniques and available in a range of sizes. The Swallow Kingfisher Greenhouse comes with staging and auto vents supplied as standard. This model is also available in a choice of colours with ornate finials which make this single door wooden greenhouse a thing of beauty, and a real feature in your garden.
Made from heat treated Thermowood - Manufactured from quality red wood pine, all timber is kiln dried and placed in an oven where a powerful compressor removes the air. At 215°C the timber is baked which not only gives the timber a nice consistent colour throughout but also seals the capillaries, destroys resins and proteins and stabilises the timber. This means it can be left untreated for longer, and paint can be applied much easier, lasting in turn up to three times longer than wood that has not undergone the same treatment.
Post treatment, all bacteria is killed, resulting in a sterile material, and durability is improved against decay with greater dimensional stability also thermal conductivity is reduced. A great choice for allergy sufferers, this greenhouse has been enginereed to last. It is also ideal for those with young children or grandchildren as toughened safety glass has been supplied as standard.
