Timber Preservation
Advances in timber preservation are extending the use of readily available and renewable species into a wide range of applications where durability is required.
Preservation gives timber durability – from attack by insects and decay producing organisms.
Technology is improving these qualities even further. Preserving chemicals are being better applied; they are safer to handle and the range of preservative-treated wood is now extensive.
Advantages of Treated Timber
It provides long life under hazardous conditions. It is cost efficient. It is versatile – can be used outdoors, indoors, above ground, underground, and in direct contact with fresh or salt water. A variety of finishes provide additional attractiveness. It provides flexibility for design and can economically overcome difficult site situations.
Main Types of Preservatives
Creosote and modified creosote-based preservatives, e.g. Tanalised K. Light organic solvent based preservatives, e.g. Protim, Tanalised Azure, Timtech Az. Copper chrome arsenic preservatives (fixed waterborne preservatives) e.g. Tanalised C, Tanalised E, Lifewood, Naturewood, Timtech CX, Timtech Q. Preservative compounds of boron or fluoride e.g. Polybor, Tanalised B, Timtech BG, Osmose Liquid Boron, Sodium Fluoride.
Pressure Treated Timber
TANALISED E pressure treated timber has been impregnated with TANALITH E, a waterborne product based on copper triazole technology. Copper is derived from recycled sources and triazoles are organic biodegradable biocides, commonly used to protect many of the food crops we eat. TANALISED E pressure treated timber is usually specified for both in and out of ground contact applications where there is a medium to high risk of decay or insect attack.
An established and proven alternative to traditional chromated/copper/arsenate (CCA) treated timber. Effective long-term protection against fungal and insect attack. Proven performance, widely used and accepted worldwide. Appealing natural green colour with excellent colour durability, blending perfectly with nature. Impregnated using vacuum pressure technology. Conforms to new European Standards and individual countries' national requirements Ideal for general construction, fencing, garden and leisure timber applications.
