CodeRight dryframe 50 timber products treated with Protim Micro are fully backed by a CodeMark certification for structural timber applications in New Zealand.
This new generation timber treatment provides the equivalent Hazard class protection of H3.2 Treated timber in New Zealand and H3, H4 and H5 in Australia.
Protim Micro is a revolutionary Micronised Copper Azole (MCA) treatment preservative option delivering fully dry dimensionally stable timber products which can be used in any application where the H3.2 or lower hazard class is specified in New Zealand. There are also options to treat to the hazard classes of H4 and H5 as the preservative is approved under the joint New Zealand and Australian standard AS/NZS1604.
CodeRight timber products treated with Protim Micro offer the consumer a number of benefits which include:
- A reduced low chemical footprint compared to traditional preservative treatments used in the H3.2 Hazard class as it does not contain the heavy metals of Arsenic and Chromium and removes the high cost to dispose of CCA shavings and CCA wood products at end of life.
- Increased dimensional stability over traditional timber product dried after wet treatment, free of fillet marks and discoloration after kiln drying and with consistency in sizing.
- The product is backed by a full 50 year limited durability warranty against decay fungi, and insect attack. It fully complies with the durability requirements contained with section B2/AS1 of the New Zealand Building Code.
