 COX WOLMANIZED LUMBER
DRIED AFTER TREATMENT
No matter what you're building-a deck, a gazebo, a tree house- it you're building for the outdoors, you need pressure treated lumber.
But how do you choose between standard wet-treated lumber and Dried after Treatment lumber.
Cox thinks you should evaluate a lumber product by answering two questions: Is it safe? And, how well does it perform season after season? On both counts, Dura-Pine dry-treated lumber by Cox is superior.
After CCA-treated Southern Pine is pressure treated, the fibers are saturated with chemical and moisture. By redrying the lumber, Cox assures you of maximum chemical fixation in the wood. The result: a higher quality lumber product that is safer for the environment.
Because all treated lumber shrinks as it dries, Cox is able to control that shrinkage at the treatment plant. That way, any normal shrinkage occurs before it reaches the lumber yard, not after the wood has been used.
As a result, Cox DuraPine has greater strength and stability. It's more uniform in size and reduces warping, twisting and cupping. That means your nails or screws have better holding power. So your structure keeps its integrity and its looks far longer than using standard wet-treated lumber. You can paint or stain immediately, without waiting for the lumber to dry, unlike standard wet-treated wood.
WHEN IT COMES TO TREATED LUMBER, HERE'S WHY LESS IS MORE.
Less Shrinking.
Less Wetness.
Less Warping. |
