The Protim pressure treatment system is a tried and trusted method of preserving timber against fungal decay and insect attack for internal and external timbers in above ground applications. Discerning do-it-yourself enthusiasts, professional building contractors and specifiers look to Protim Clearchoice to ensure a premium quality wood preservative that gives durability to pre-treated timber. Wood is a natural renewable construction material Wood is surely the optimum construction material; it is beautiful, environmentally sourced and extremely versatile. Its high strength to weight ratio and insulating properties makes it the ideal material for construction projects such as roof building and timber frame housing. Unprotected wood can also be a source of food for fungi and certain species of insects such as Hylotrupes Bajulus, otherwise known as the house longhorn beetle. Therefore it is essential that wood is pre-treated with Protim Clearchoice to ensure full protection against wood boring insects and fungal decay throughout the service life of the project. What is Protim Clearchoice*? Protim Clearchoice is a preservation system for wood, pressure treated for use in construction projects that require protection to hazard categories H1, H2, H3 (see table) such as roof timbers, timber framing, internal and external joinery and other internal and external timber projects that are above dpc/ground level. When using Protim Clearchoice in external applications it will need to be coated with a suitable external coating. All Osmose preservatives are applied by independent timber treatment facilities.
