SiooX, the Swedish company renowned for its patented silicate-based wood protection technology, has been acquired by Russwood, the family owned, leading UK supplier of high-quality and sustainable timber products.
Based in Newtonmore, Scotland, with more than 30 years of experience, Russwood is a well-established provider in the timber industry, specialising in cladding, decking, flooring, and fixing solutions.
The acquisition 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. SiooX develops wood protection products based on globally patented silicate technology. The products provide timber with a natural silvergrey patina while offering long-lasting protection against weather, moisture, and biological impact.
“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 emphasises 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.
