Product Description:
Introducing the Woodford Super Post, our latest innovation, developed as the superior replacement for creosote-treated timber. Designed for ultimate longevity and safety, these posts are crafted from carefully selected imported pine and treated with advanced Tanasote® copper-oil wood preservative.
Unmatched Durability & Performance
Our Super Posts are engineered for industrial timber applications, ensuring exceptional resistance to decay and insect attack.
- Advanced Protection: Tanasote® features a unique formulation with an innovative organic co-biocide, providing broad-spectrum protection against aggressive decay fungi.
- Self-Healing Properties: The unique copper-oil allows the timber to ‘self-heal’ when minor checks appear in service, maintaining its integrity.
- Minimised Splitting: An integrated, long-lasting water repellent significantly reduces splitting and checking.
- Low Odour & Easy Handling: Tanasote® treated timber is low odour and comfortable to work with, enhancing your installation experience.
- Certified Quality: Meets stringent criteria for IS 435, I.S. 436 & I.S. 437 standards, guaranteeing performance and compliance.
Aesthetic Evolution
Upon exposure to UV light, Tanasote® treated timber gracefully transitions from a bright emerald green to a warm honey brown, highlighting the natural variations in the wood. Over time, it will darken, acquiring a look very similar to traditional creosote-treated timber.
Equestrian & Agricultural Trials
We understand the concerns around animal contact. Rigorous BPR risk assessment for animal health concludes that the risk to livestock from contact with Tanasote® treated wood is acceptable. This assessment considers all potential exposures, including chewing, rubbing, and licking, and confirms that the active substances are non-volatile.
Extensive trials, including equestrian fencing installations across the UK from 2019 to 2021, have shown no observable evidence of cribbing on Tanasote® treated fence rails. Site owners consistently reported their horses did not crib on the treated timber. Furthermore, experienced agricultural contractors, like Tim Bennett Farm Fencing, have trialled Tanasote® since 2018. Their findings after four years indicate no sign of post failure and no plant or vegetation ‘burn’ around the post bases, affirming Tanasote® as a reliable and effective alternative to creosoted posts.
Woodford Super Posts are available in both square sawn and round agricultural formats, providing a robust, long-lasting, and safer solution for all your fencing needs.
