Protect your lumber from mold, warping, rot, termites, carpenter ants and fire.
Techwood is an applied emulsion that protects the wood from mold, warping, rot, termites, carpenter ants and fire. We can provide you with coated lumber or coat your lumber. Techwood can provide a fire-retardant certification for Spruce and Southern Yellow Pine when requested prior to coating. Wood with Techwood can be used as a sill plate with no further treatment. Techwood has no effect on the strength of the wood unlike other pressure treating processes that can affect the strength in excess of a 10% reduction in capacity. One of the big advantages of Techwood is that it protects the building from fire during the construction process or from fires inside the walls.
The fire-retardant certification requires that wood will not allow a flame spread over ten feet in the test chamber. Techwood has passed this test and allows it to be used in five story frame construction with Spruce or Southern Yellow Pine. Techwood is a great choice in providing added value and protection to your home or apartment construction product.
