Builders and handy people around the country are often confused when it comes to outdoor treatment for timber. For decades, CCA was the preferred treatment type and easily recognizable by its karki green colour like the old round logs for retaining walls. Similar bans have also taken place in the EU and United States. This lead timber companies to look for alternative solutions for outdoor timber treatment. Today, Timberlink in partnership with our preservative partner Lonza has developed the next generation of outdoor timber treatment, Timberlink Green. A low odour LOSP based solution penetrates the timber, which is then guaranteed for 25 years for use in the above-ground outdoors. When treated with LOSP, your timber will remain more straight and stable in the harsh Australian outdoors. Timberlink Green has a superior appearance to others in the market as it is both machine graded for structural integrity and visually graded for good looks. Being manufactured to meet Australian standards, Timberlink Green is the original and the best low odour solution. Incredibly Timberlink Green has up to 30 times less odour than traditional LOSP formulations, and with a patent pending on this formulation it is unique compared to other solutions claiming low odour. LOSP is a treatment that is usually a white spirit based solvent that contains copper naphthenates and synthetic pyrethroids as well as other chemicals to provide protection from insects and decay.

LOSP is a pre-primed timber product. It is not intended for use where the treated commodity comes into contact with the soil. LOSP-treated timber is produced in a dry state in its final form, and usually not cut or machined on the building site. LOSP is H3 treated and the active ingredients prevent decay and insect attack are usually carried in a white spirit solvent system. This can result in the treated timber having a residual smell but it will dissipate relatively quickly, especially in our warm climate.

We can supply a full range of treated products or treat timber supplied by you. LOSP H3 is an effective preservative formulation designed to provide a lasting protection for timber products used in external situations above ground. The formulation contains specialised fungicides for protection against fungal decay and an insecticide to provide lasting protection from termites and other timber boring insects. LOSP uses an organic solvent carrier to transport the active ingredients into the timber. This solvent does not saturate wood cells and causes little or no swelling during treatment. This means that the timber maintains its original size, shape and strength grading. LOSP treated timber requires no kiln drying after treatment as the solvent evaporates from the timber over time without additional kiln drying. The water repellent resin and wax system included in the formulation retards the rate at which water is absorbed by the timber during construction. This enhances dimensional stability. This synergistic combination of organic fungicides protects timber from decay in above ground situations.
