Pressure Treatment

We can offer a pressure treatment on timbers cut.
Pressure treated products will initially have an even green appearance; this will weather to a natural honey brown colour before finally fading to a driftwood grey after long term exposure to the sun.

Pressure Treated products can be painted or stained to match any outdoor colour scheme.
The preservatives in Pressure Treated products are frequently used in products that are common in our everyday lives. Copper, a naturally occurring mineral is an effective and widely used fungicide and quaternary compounds are commonly used in household disinfectants and cleaners.

Vac-Vac Treatment

VACSOL Aqua treated timber, is timber, which has been impregnated with VACSOL Aqua timber preservative under rigidly controlled conditions in a double vacuum/low pressure plant (Vac-Vac plant).

Here the timber is placed in a tank and firstly a vac is applied to suck out all excess water from the timber. Then the preservative is added, and finally it is pressurised, forcing the preservative deep into the timber. VACSOL Aqua is a waterborne timber preservative formulation having fungicidal and insecticidal properties.

Vac-Vac pressure timber is clear in colour.

Both of these treatments are obtained outside of Bendrey Brothers Ltd and therefore will take a few days to process.
