Description

Copper oil treated timber refers to wood that has been treated with a preservative containing copper as an active ingredient. The copper in the preservative helps to protect the wood from decay, insect infestation, and other forms of wood degradation.

Copper oil treated timber is often used in outdoor applications where wood is exposed to moisture, such as decks, fences, and outdoor furniture. The copper in the preservative helps to prevent rot and decay caused by fungi and insects, extending the lifespan of the wood and reducing the need for maintenance and replacement.

The treatment process involves impregnating the wood with a solution containing copper, typically through pressure treatment or vacuum-pressure treatment methods. This allows the preservative to penetrate deep into the wood fibers, providing long-lasting protection against decay and insect damage.
