Wood Treatment
Pressure-treated timber is widely used in outdoor construction because it significantly increases the lifespan and durability of wood exposed to the elements.
Tanalith® Wood Treatment
Tanalith is a high-performance wood preservative used in pressure treatment. It protects timber against:
- Wet rot
- Dry rot
- Fungal decay
- Insect infestation
Key Benefits:
- Long-lasting protection
- Suitable for structural and landscaping use
- Safe for outdoor applications
- Compatible with paints and stains once dry
Tanalith-treated timber has a light green appearance when freshly treated, which gradually weathers to a natural honey-brown and eventually to a silver-grey if left untreated.
Tanatone® Wood Treatment
Tanatone is a brown-dyed version of Tanalith treatment. It offers the same level of protection but with enhanced appearance.
Why Choose Tanatone?
- Rich brown colour for a more natural look
- No need for immediate staining
- Ideal for fencing, decking, and garden structures
- Same durability and performance as Tanalith
Over time, Tanatone timber will also weather naturally unless maintained with a suitable wood stain or treatment.
What Is Tanalised Timber?
Tanalised timber is timber that has been pressure-treated using Tanalith preservative.
The term “Tanalised” is often used as a general description for pressure-treated timber. It means the preservative has been forced deep into the wood fibres under high pressure, providing long-term protection.
Common Uses:
- Fence posts and panels
- Decking
- Sleepers
- Pergolas and garden structures
- Structural outdoor timber
Tanalised timber is ideal for ground contact applications when treated to the appropriate use class.
