Pressure Treatment Process
Tanalith™ is the latest generation wood preservative. Already established in markets
throughout the world, Tanalith™ treated timber provides a proven alternative to traditional CCA
treated timber for the timber trade and for the general public.
Tanalith™ preservative has a unique copper and organic biocide (triazole) formulation allowing
Tanalith™ treated timber to be used where special environmental concerns or restrictions
exist, as well as the everyday construction, landscaping and engineering applications for which
treated timber is renowned, e.g. children’s play areas.

The Tanalising process involves placing the timber within the treatment cylinder and
creating an initial vacuum with the timber cells.
The cylinder is flooded under vacuum with the preservative treatment.
Hydraulic pressure is then applied, forcing the preservative deep into the timber cells.
4
After a pre-determined period of pressure, depending on the species of timber being
treated and its eventual use, the treatment solution is pumped back into storage and a
final vacuum extracts any excess treatment solution from the timber.
5
Low pressure inside the timber draws in surface solution when vented to the
atmosphere and the treated timber is left for a minimum of 48 hours for fixation of
preservative to occur.
