pressure-treated lumber

Pressure-treated lumber is wood that has been infused with special preservatives using a high-pressure process. This treatment helps protect the wood from rot, insects, and decay, making it more durable and suitable for outdoor use or in environments where moisture and pests are a concern. The process ensures the preservatives penetrate deeply into the wood fibers, extending its lifespan significantly. Many decks, fences, and outdoor structures use pressure-treated lumber due to its enhanced resistance and long-lasting performance. It’s a practical choice when durability and maintenance reduction are priorities in building projects.
