Cooee Biosciences has developed and patented unique non-toxic,
environmentally-friendly technologies and products, which specialize
in the control and management of water content in natural and man-made
materials.
Cooee Biosciences recently released a new non-toxic, environmentally-friendly
product called TimberTreat that caused a huge amount of interest
at the prestigious International Research Group on Wood Preservation
Conference held in Brisbane this spring. This remarkable new oil-in-water
emulsion wood treatment takes a new approach to preserving wood
products. Instead of using toxic chemicals to kill or repel threats
to untreated timber, it uses two principles - waterproofing combined
with a low-dose, antimicrobial ionic quaternary ammonium compound.
The result is a synergistic product that is highly effective in
protecting wood against splitting & cracking, wood rot and fungal
growth, termite attack, mold growth, and even provides UV protection.
Cooee plans to register TimberTreat as a wood preservative
and cross-register it as a termiticide.
Currently marketed only in Australia, TimberTreat will soon
be available in other countries worldwide. The product will also
be sold in a tinted version in 5 popular colors.

Nisus Corporation produces and distributes borate-containing
wood treatment products including "Bora-care" and "Tim-bor"
which are used for treating wood with borate compounds. Borate compounds
are non-toxic compounds that have been in use for over 300 years to
stop decay and kill insects. They are a safe alternative to synthetic
and toxic chemicals, such as CCA. Borates kill termites, beetles,
ants, silverfish, crickets and cockroaches. Insects do not develop
resistance to borate-containing products and can be used on historic
structures. |

Note: Hardwick Distributing is
a licensed distributor for the Permasil Company who manufacturers
a product called Permasil WB, a water-borne liquid silicone rubber
water repellent. Permasil WB has the consistency of water, is white
in appearance, and cures to a totally clear finish. Hardwick Distributing
claims that Permasil WB will "prevent the CCA [in treated wood]
from leaching out and with the borate additive will stop termites
as well as the growth of fungi". Permasil WB is "completely
environmentally friendly", requires only a single coat, and can
be pigmented to achieve any color. In addition, this product is impervious
to UV radiation and acid rain, which makes it ideal for treatment
of CCA wood decking. It can also be used for treating log homes, and
can be applied to a variety of building materials including concrete,
concrete block, brick, mortar, stucco, wood and canvas. Truly, this
is a revolutinoary one-size-fits-all product!.
Hardwick Distributing has supplied BANCCA.ORG with a small sample
of their product for testing purposes, along with a Material Safety
Data Sheet (MSDS). We are pleased to be able to recommend this new
product to BANCCA readers and suggest that anyone who is interested
in using this product review the data on the Web site listed above
and then try it. We will be testing this product for longevity in
CCA applications and for mildew prevention in non-CCA products. We
salute Hardwick Distributing and Permasil for offering consumers such
a practical, safe and versatile product! |

Trex Wood-Polymer™ lumber is made from reclaimed plastic
and wood waste in approximately equal proportions. Its durability
makes it an ideal choice for decking and landscaping. Unlike plastic
lumber, which is typically 100% plastic, Trex decking is approximately
50% wood fiber and 50% plastic. Because of the wood content, Trex
decking has the advantages of low thermal expansion/contraction,
natural UV stability, good traction and paintability, and Trex decking
is just as easy to work with as wood. Trex lumber contains no toxic
preservatives and can be included and disposed of with normal construction
debris. We salute the TREX Company for its innovation in producing
a wonderful product made from recyclable materials!

biomass plant is to provide a more durable, kiln-dried wood product
with the additional protection against rot, insects and mold. "It's
a two-in-one process with a significant energy savings," explains
Ian Brotherston, President of SDT Inc., "smoked wood is already
accepted as an alternative to CCA-treated lumber." We salute
