Construction and Materials
NatureWood® treated lumber is a premium product designed for durability and long-lasting performance in a variety of outdoor applications. The construction of NatureWood lumber involves the process of pressure treating, which infuses the wood with protective chemicals deep into its core.
The materials used in NatureWood lumber are:
- Wood: The base material is typically kiln-dried lumber, which is then treated.
- Preservative System: NatureWood utilizes an alkaline copper quaternary (ACQ) preservative system. This system is known for its effectiveness in preventing decay, rot, and insect attack.
The construction process focuses on ensuring the preservative penetrates uniformly throughout the wood. This is achieved through a vacuum-pressure impregnation process. The wood is placed in a large cylinder, and then a vacuum is applied to remove air from the wood cells. Following the vacuum, the cylinder is filled with the NatureWood preservative solution, and pressure is applied. This pressure forces the preservative deep into the wood, providing protection that lasts for the lifetime of the wood product.
The result is lumber that is suitable for a wide range of uses where the wood will be in contact with the ground or exposed to moisture. Its treated nature makes it resistant to fungal decay and termite damage, contributing to the longevity and structural integrity of outdoor projects.
