Treated wood usually means wood that has been preserved with some type of treatment. ![]() The intent of treating wood is to extend the useful life of a wood product. This may or may not always be true. It will depend on the treating process, type of treatment being used, and the species and condition of the wood being treated. There are some that will tell you that Doug Fir is hard to treat. In some circumstances they are right. Using the wrong chemical and/or the wrong process, Douglas Fir would be almost impossible to treat. That is one reason why Northwest Fir only uses treating companies that follow AWPA guidelines so we are certain our posts will have a long service life of 40+ years. We take pride in producing only the best so its only natural that we insist that our wood receives the best wood treatment there is. To learn more about the our quality treating processes see Treatments. Treated Posts and Small Poles are used in many ways. We have outlined several of the more popular uses under Fence Posts, Small Poles, and Trellis Posts. In most applications, farmers and ranchers are telling us they would like to get 40+ years out of their posts and realize the value of going with quality Doug Fir. | |
