SiooX develops wood protection products based on globally patented silicate technology. The products provide timber with a natural silver-grey patina while offering long-lasting protection against weather, moisture, and biological impact.
The company operates in both the consumer market and the industrial market. The industrial business is undergoing strong international growth, with a focus on new pigments and enhanced protection against UV radiation, fire, and termites – further strengthening SiooX’s position as a global innovator in wood protection.
The acquisition by Russwood strengthens SiooX’s future prospects and customers and partners can look forward to even higher quality and service. With its long-standing technical expertise and product development capabilities in the timber sector, Russwood – together with the new management team in Gothenburg – is well positioned to take SiooX forward into its next phase.
“We have collaborated with SiooX for many years and have seen first-hand the strength and potential of their technology,” said Michael Russell, joint managing director, Russwood. “The unique combination of sustainability, aesthetics, and long-term protection makes SiooX stand out in the market. This acquisition is therefore a natural step forward for us, and we look forward to working with the new management team to further develop both the products and the markets.”
Russwood also emphasised its confidence in the new management team appointed in February 2025, which will continue to lead the company into the next stage of development and growth.
