Accys, manufacturer of Accoya one of the highest quality and sustainable wooden products of the world-pleasure, to present Accoya on the deck of the legendary arch bridge in Central Park.
After more than 160 years of permanent weather, heavy foot traffic and countless film productions, the bridge showed clear signs of wear. While there was a comprehensive restoration in 2015 to 2024, the southern yellow pine decks required exchange. For this essential upgrade, Accoya was an optimal solution – its extraordinary dimensional stability ensures that the wood also maintains its shape and structural integrity under New York's intensive seasonal fluctuations without decorating, going or swollen. In addition to his superior performance, Accoyas made procurement of sustainably managed forests and its minimal environmental influences for the Parks Central Park Conservancy and New York City, which agreed with their many years of commitment to ecological administration.
This historic jewel has revived the restoration of the bow deck. With Accoya, the bridge illustrates how timeless design and modern innovation can coexist in perfect harmony.
“It is a privilege to make a contribution to the preservation of a estimated landmark in New York City,” said Sergio Munhoz, sales manager for Accys North America. “The arch bridge required a material that could offer long -term reliability and at the same time respected its historical character. Accoya's superior durability, dimensional stability and sustainability registration information made it the right choice to ensure that this iconic structure has been continued since the coming generations.”
