Zusammenfassung:An improved method and system of kiln-drying wood is disclosed wherein the courses of wood in a conventional drying kiln are separated by strong, dimensionally stable, re-usable kiln stickers made of paper-reinforced, thermosetting resin laminae having a thickness ranging from 1/4 inch to 1 inch. Use of the laminated stickers enables increased kiln capacity, more uniform drying, and faster drying schedules. The laminated stickers have a longer production life compared with conventional wood stickers.
