The impact of ultraviolet radiation on the colour of thermo-mechanically modifi ed sapwood and heartwood of pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) was examined in the study. Samples of wood were densifi ed in a hydraulic press at unit pressure of 80 MPa, at three levels of temperature of the press platens: 100 °C, 150 °C and 200 °C, for 360 s. The parameters of wood colour were determined using the mathematical colour space models CIE L*a*b* and L*C*h. As a result of the modifi cation of pine sapwood at the temperature of 200 °C, the change in wood colour ΔE was twice as substantial as the change in wood colour after modifi cations at lower temperatures. The total colour difference for pine heartwood, irrespective of the modifi cation temperature, was at least twice as substantial as the change in the colour of pine sapwood. The most substantial changes in sapwood and heartwood lightness occurred after 20 h exposure to UV radiation. Changes in lightness occurring within 20 h, irrespective of the temperature of treatment, accounted for about 30 60 % of the total change. After 300 h of irradiation, the value of ΔE for sapwood densifi ed at temperatures of 100 °C, 150 °C and 200 °C was, respectively, 15 %, 27 % and 34 % higher than the value of ΔE for heartwood densifi ed at the same temperatures.
