Bendywood® is bending wood without steam that has become flexible thanks to a special production process. It can be worked like normal wood and subsequently bent in a cold (no heating) and dry (no steaming ) condition. 

Bendywood® is bendable forever and can be stored like normal wood.

There is no difference in appearance between Bendywood® and normal wood.      

Bendywood® is produced in an entirely natural way, without the use of chemicals.             

Wood blocks are steamed, compressed in length, and dried in the compressed length.
Bending-resistant lengths up to 12 m are produced using special joints.

Here is an example of a handrail with a length of 11.7 m in one piece:

Bendywood® is available in beech, oak, maple, ash, cherry and walnut. 

Bendywood® can be  bent up to a radius of 1 : 10, for example thickness 10 mm to radius 100 mm.
Bendywood® is worked in straight condition first and then bent.
