What is incising?
Using specialist machinery prior to treatment, a series of incisions is cut into the ground contact area of the timber allowing for far greater preservative treatment uptake.

What timber is used?
PermaTimber® is produced using UK grown FSC Certified Spruce, as well as some Larch and Douglas fir. This means is comes from well managed and sustainable sources. Find out more about information on the systems PermaTimber have for its timber.
Has it been independently tested?
PermaTimber® products have been independently tested by the BRE who concluded that they meet the requirements for BS8417 (2011) for a desired service life of 15-years.
Is it value for money?
The majority of cost when installing timber products is usually labour costs. If timber has to be replaced earlier than expected this can be time consuming and costly. Therefore, PermaTimber® products represent great value for money when considering the whole-life cost of your products.
