Timber Treatment
At Beesley & Fildes we treat timber for the following products to improve its durability & lifespan

• Construction
• Fencing
• Landscaping sleepers
• Decking

Working in partnership with Arch ® Timber Protection we are able to offer pressure treated timber from our facilities at our Chester branch and at Colin Myers Timber in Widnes.
The main features of TANALITH® E are;

• TANALITH® E pressure treated timber is timber which has been impregnated with TANALITH® E* wood preservative under controlled conditions in a vacuum pressure impregnation plant
• TANALITH® E pressure treated timber is protected against fungal (rot) and insect attack to ensure a long service life
• Following impregnation a series of reactions take place between the wood preservative and the wood structure so that the wood preservative becomes ‘fixed’ and cannot easily be removed from the timber
• Typical uses for TANALITH® E pressure treated timber include general construction, cladding, garden and leisure wood structures, fencing and playground equipment
• TANALITH® E pressure treated timber is available with built in water repellency - TANALITH® Extra™ and with built in brown colour TANATONE®

* TANALITH® E wood preservative is cleared for use under the UK Control of Pesticide Regulations.  The preservative contains copper and triazole biocides.

We also offer VACSOL® Aqua treated timber which is a waterbourne timber preservative formulation having fungicidal and insecticidal properties.  VACSOL® Aqua treated timber is usually specified for above dpc level construction timbers with a low to medium risk of decay or insect attack.

The main features of VACSOL® Aqua are

• Treated timber offers effective long term protection against fungal and insect attack
• Designed for use in internal and external building applications above dpc level
• Timber appearance unchanged (many suppliers use a yellow colour tint for ease of identification
• Treated using the VAC-VAC double vacuum impregnation process
• Treatment does not significantly alter the dimensions or moisture content of the timber – ideal for stress graded material in accordance with BS 4978
• Conform to the new European Standards for treatment of construction timber in Use Classes 1,2 and 3.1
• Approved by the National House Builders Council (NHBC) and major house builders
• Approved with the Q-Mark quality mark from the UK Timber Frame Association
