Borate

Borate treatment is effective at killing wood destroying insects, fungi, and may also have some fire-retardant properties. It allows the chemical to penetrate deeply into wet wood; therefore borate treatments do not require the wood to be incised prior to treatment. However, borate treated lumber and plywood must be protected from the weather and are not labeled for direct ground contact.

Uses: Sill plate, joists, studs, roof trusses, blocking, rafters, beams
Species: Douglas-fir, Hem fir, Southern Yellow Pine, Spruce-Pine-Fir

Fire Retardant

Fire retardant treated lumber and plywood products from Allweather Wood are pressure impregnated with fire retardant chemicals that go deep into the wood, not just on the surface. These chemicals slow the spread of flames and encourage the development of a char layer on the surface which insulates the wood below and slows fire growth.

Uses: Interior uses only, including floor joists, floor sheathing, partition walls, plywood sheathing, rafters, roof trusses, sill plate, sub flooring, studs, wall sheathing, 1 & 2 Hour Wall Assemblies
Species: Douglas-fir, Hem fir, Southern Yellow Pine, Spruce-Pine-Fir
