Timber treatment

William Kirkwood & Sons have 50 years of experience in the pressure treating of timber with our on-site plant.  
Timber is vulnerable to the effects of weather, fungal and insect attack when exposed to certain conditions; forcing preservative into the timber under controlled high pressure can extend significantly the service life of properly treated timber. As part of our professional service we offer treatment with a water based preservative, Tanalith™E9000, which provides effective long term protection against fungal and insect attack.

A Short video on timber treatment can be see here:

Treated timber is initially pale green in colour which blends well with the natural environment. Over time the treated timber will slowly weather to a warm honey brown and eventually to a silver grey.

HC3 and HC4

Timber can be preservative treated to suit the degree of hazard it is likely to be subjected to in its eventual end use. Our fencing timbers are treated to either Hazzard/Use Class 3 (HC3) or Hazzard/Use Class 4 (HC4). HC4 class is best for direct ground contact.

Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

Uc4/HC4 Treated 

William Kirkwood & Sons also stock imported Incised Fencing posts where incising technology is used to allow a deeper and more consistent penetration of preservative into the timber.
