WaxedWood Color preserved wood with built-in water repellency
WaxedWood Color provides extra protection against the effects of weathering for highly visible and decorative timbers. Based on a vacuum pressure treatment, timber is protected against wood decay. At the same time a mixture of wax is impregnated. This water repellent additive provides extra protection against moisture and reduces maintenance requirements. This makes it a suitable product for application in cladding, decking, fencing, garden furniture, playground equipment and other constructions.

Effects of WaxedWood Color

• Sustainable and durable protection against wood decay, fungi and insects;
• Appealing natural pale green colour with excellent weathering properties;
• Improved durability of applied coating systems due to increased dimensional stability.

Based on patented technology
For the production of WaxedWood TANALITH Extra, a patented preservative with built-in water repellent, is used. Results in laboratory and field testing proved that it provides sufficient protection for applications in all use classes. The Dutch institute for building and ecology (NIBE) performed an indicative assessment to determine the environmental impact of WaxedWood Color. They concluded that usage of WaxedWood Color has less impact on the environment than comparable building solutions and awarded it with their trademark DUBOkeur.
