WOLMANIZED®
Wolmanized® Residential
Outdoor® wood is treated with a patented copper-based preservative
and an organic fungicide. Proven for more than a decade and across
four continents, this wood is ideal for applications including
decks, play sets, retaining walls, fences, picnic tables, planter
boxes, walkways, sill plate and structural members. It comes with a
limited lifetime warranty for most residential applications. Copper
is the active ingredient protecting against termites and most fungal
decay.
Protection against copper-tolerant fungi is provided by an
organic azole which has also been used as a fungicide for fruits,
peanuts, and other crops.

Wolmanized wood is a natural and environmentally responsible choice:
it's made from wood, a renewable resource, treatment extends the
life of the wood, and the preservative used is as gentle as it can
be and still be effective and long-lasting. Used almost anywhere.
