Which Material Is Best For Me:
Why Treated Lumber?
MFP distributes pressure-treated lumber produced with Wolmanized® Outdoor®. Wolmanized® Outdoor® wood is resistant to termites and fungal decay, both above-ground and in-ground, and is ideal for many residential, commercial and agricultural applications, including:
• Decks
• Play structures
• Raised beds
• Planter boxes
• Retaining walls
• Walkways
• Outdoor furniture
• Benches
• Fences
• Sill plate
• Sawn structural members
• Permanent wood foundations
With a lifetime guarantee covering residential applications, Wolmanized® Outdoor® wood is ideal for deck substructures and other backyard projects.
Wolmanized® Outdoor® wood is a natural and environmentally responsible choice: it is made from wood, a renewable resource, treatment extends the life of the wood, and the preservative used is as gentle as possible while still effective and long-lasting.
The patented preservative in Wolmanized® Outdoor® wood is a formulation of copper azole. Copper, derived from recycled sources, is the principal active ingredient, protecting against termites and fungal decay. Protection against copper-tolerant fungi is provided by an effective azole, Preventol® A8 from Bayer Chemicals, that is also used to protect many of the foods we eat such as fruit, peanuts and wheat.
The formulation renders the wood useless as a food source for termites and fungi while keeping the wood attractive, clean and odorless.
Additional information about Wolmanized® Outdoor® wood is available on the Wolmanized® web site.
