List of featured suppliers of HEAT TREATED TIMBER on Building Products Index
Heat treated timber is a type of wood that has been processed through high temperatures to improve its properties and characteristics. This process involves subjecting the wood to temperatures between 160°C to 230°C in special chambers for several hours. This method helps to eliminate moisture from the wood, making it more stable, rot-resistant and able to withstand insects and fungi infestations. Furthermore, heat-treated timber has a reduced tendency to warp, split, or crack, making it an ideal material for construction and building projects.
