PRESSURE TREATED TIMBER
Our timber is used extensively within the construction industry. It is used both in traditional building and timber frame structures, constructed both onsite and offsite. Our timber is used across all sectors, refurbishments & extensions as well as new builds
Murray Timber Group use purpose built industry leading treatment facilities to pressure treat our timber to the highest standards. Our supplier of wood preservative and treatment expertise is Arch Timber Protection. They provide us procedures for using their wood preservative and closely monitor that it is done in accordance with these procedures. Our timber is treated in accordance with BS 8417.
Arch Timber Protection specialises in the development and supply of innovative protection products to meet stringent industry and regulatory demands. The EPA consider Tanalith E treated timber off-cuts to be non-hazardous for disposal.
The two types of pressure treated timbers we offer are TANALISED E and TANATONE.
TANALISED E has a natural pale green colouration, whilst TANATONE has a built-in rich brown tone.
We also offer low pressure treatment which is VACSOL AQUA. VACSOL AQUA is a water-based preservative treatment for use in construction applications.
PRESSURE TREATED TIMBER (Suitable for classes 1,2,3 & 4)
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.
Conforms to new European Standards and individual countries’ national requirements.
Ideal for general construction, fencing, garden and leisure timber applications.
USE CLASS (UC) SUMMARY
1 – Internal, dry – for example upper floor joists.
2 – Internal, risk of wetting – for example tile battens.
3.1 – Outdoors, coated, above ground – for example window frames.
3.2 – Outdoors, uncoated, above ground – for example fence rails.
4 – Direct soil or fresh water contact – for example fence posts.
