Treatments
 Watford
Timber Company Ltd operate two in-house
treatment plants offering both CCB
and Clear Treatments. The chemicals
used in the processes are manufactured
and supplied by Protim Solignum Osmose
Ltd of Marlow Bucks.
CCB Treatment
Copper Chrome Boron preservatives
produce a characteristic grey-green
colouration which fades in natural
weathering. These types of treatment
are normally used in ground contact
and high exposure situations such
as fencing posts, rails, playground
equipment, piers, jetties & decking.
CCB treated timbers have to be retained within our treatment
area for a minimum of 48 hours or until touch dry.
Clear Treatment
Protim E415 BSEN 599 category hazard classes 1,2 & 3 BWPDA
approved preservative containing Permethrin, Propiconazole
& Tebuconazole.
These types of treatment leave no colour trace and are ideally
suited to finished joinery applications above DPC level.
If cutting or boring timber treated with either of these products
a cut end treatment is available which should be liberally
applied to the machined area.
These products comply with the Control
of Pesticides Regulations (COPR) 1986
for use as directed. HSE No. 5908
(E415) and 5889 (K33 C50).
Once fully dry treated timber can
be regarded as untreated for COSHH
purposes.
