Construction and Materials
MicroPro treated lumber is a product designed for enhanced durability and resistance to decay and insects. The core of this product is high-quality wood, which undergoes a specialized treatment process.
The treatment for MicroPro lumber involves the use of a copper-based preservative system. This system is designed to penetrate the wood fibers, providing long-lasting protection. The active ingredients in the MicroPro treatment are copper and organic co-biocides.
- Copper: A well-established element known for its effectiveness in preventing fungal decay and insect attack.
- Organic Co-biocides: These compounds work in conjunction with copper to offer a comprehensive protection package.
The application of the MicroPro treatment is typically performed under pressure in an industrial setting. This process ensures that the preservative solution is forced deep into the wood, maximizing its protective qualities and providing a thorough treatment from the surface to the core.
The materials used in the construction of MicroPro lumber are carefully selected wood species known for their suitability for treatment. These can include a variety of softwoods, depending on the specific application and region. The wood is prepared and dried before the pressure treatment process.
The final product is characterized by its improved longevity and performance in outdoor applications where it is exposed to moisture, soil contact, and potential insect or fungal threats. This treatment makes the lumber suitable for a wide range of uses, including decks, fences, and other structural and non-structural outdoor projects.
