POST AND POLES
FEATURES & BENEFITS
STRONG, DURABLE AND EASY TO WORK
When it comes to posts and poles, our PermaPosts retain all of the advantages of wood. Good looks, strength and ease of workability are major benefits, but the real benefit is durability. These posts are less expensive, longer lasting and stronger than metal posts. You can set them and forget them. You don't have to worry about constant maintenance to prevent rot or rust at the ground line. It will be decades before you have to consider replacing your PermaPosts.
WHAT MAKES PERMAPOST SUPERIOR?
Timber Specialties pressure treatment process forces the K-33 CCA (Chromated Copper Arsenate) preservatives into the wood's cellular structure to provide long-lasting,
in-depth protection from fungal decay and termites. Properly processed PermaPosts last 5 to 10 times longer than untreated wood posts, which usually will fail in as little as 1 year. PermaPosts can easily withstand the attack of fungi or termites for up to 30 years.
THE PRESSURE TREATING PROCESS
Using water as a carrier, the preservatives are locked in the wood. Unlike oil based treatments, there is no odour, no irritation, no messy surface and no problem around livestock, plants or humans. PermaPosts can be painted or stained if desired. To read about the pressure treated process, please click the image on the left.
