List of featured suppliers of TIMBER TREATMENT Pressure Treatments on Building Products Index
Timber treatment, specifically pressure treatments, refers to the process of injecting a chemical preservative into wood products to promote longevity and protect against fungus, insects, and decay. This treatment is commonly used for outdoor constructions, such as decking, fencing, and roofing, as well as indoor applications like wooden beams and support columns. The pressure treatment involves placing the untreated timber in a chamber where it is filled with the preservative and put under pressure, forcing the solution into the wood fibers. This process ensures that the entire piece of timber is protected, rather than just the surface.
