Impregnated Sawn and Planed Timber - Impregnation against insect attack & decay

Quality control is carried out by Inspecta Sertifiointi Oy and VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland. They have also authorised the use of quality stamps in our impregnation plants. Our company is authorised to use NTR A and NTR AB class quality stamps.

In Finland, as well as in other Nordic countries, the weather conditions created by harsh climate set high requirements for wooden constructions. Humidity, rain and melting snow in spring expose untreated wooden structures to growth of decay and mould fungus. For this reason Impregnated wood is the right choice for outdoor constructions. In direct contact with the ground or water. Impregnated wood has a service life of at least three times that of untreated wood. Impregnated wood is a safe solution that will last for years.

We use the C-salt impregnation method. The active ingredient in the impregnation substance is copper (CuO). For consumer products we use Tanalith E impregnation materials as well as Tanatone colorant. Impregnation is performed using the Bethell process according to the customer’s specifications.
