Construction and Materials
Hixson Lumber offers a range of treated lumber products designed for durability and resistance to decay and insect attack. These products are essential for a variety of construction applications where longevity and structural integrity are paramount.
The construction of Hixson Lumber's treated lumber involves a pressure treatment process. This method forces a preservative solution deep into the wood fibers, ensuring comprehensive protection throughout the material, not just on the surface. This penetration is key to the lumber's enhanced performance in outdoor or ground-contact applications.
The primary materials used in Hixson Lumber's treated wood products are high-quality lumber, typically pine or fir, depending on the specific product and application. The preservative systems employed are formulated to provide long-term protection against common wood-destroying organisms.
- Wood Species: Primarily pine and fir species are utilized, chosen for their ability to accept and retain the treatment solution.
- Preservative Systems: Hixson Lumber utilizes industry-standard preservative solutions, which are designed to be effective against fungal decay and wood-boring insects. These solutions are environmentally responsible and meet regulatory standards for treated wood.
The specific treatment schedules and retention levels of preservatives vary based on the intended use of the lumber, such as ground contact, above ground, or marine applications. This tailored approach ensures that each piece of lumber provides the appropriate level of protection for its intended environment.
