High-Quality Treated Pine Supplies in Melbourne
What is Treated Pine and Why is it Perfect for Melbourne's Climate?
Treated pine is a type of softwood, typically Radiata Pine, that has been impregnated with a preservation solution under high pressure. This process, known as pressure treatment, forces the chemicals deep into the wood fibers, making the timber highly resistant to decay, rot, and insect attacks, particularly from termites. This treatment process is what makes pine a durable and long-lasting material perfectly suited for all types of outdoor construction in the Melbourne climate.

Maintenance & Longevity Tips for Treated Pine in Melbourne
While treated pine is designed for durability, proper care can extend its life and keep it looking great for years, especially with Melbourne's weather changes.
- Sealing: We recommend applying a high-quality sealant or stain to your treated pine after construction. This protects the timber from UV damage and moisture, preventing it from cracking or splitting.
- Cleaning: Regularly clean your treated pine with a mild soap and a soft-bristled brush to remove dirt and grime. Avoid using high-pressure washers, which can damage the timber fibers.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect your timber for any signs of wear and tear, and reapply sealant as needed to maintain protection.
