Basic Copper Carbonate: one compound, many industries. The detail below covers what changed, what it means day to day for treating plants and specifiers, and where the work goes next.

What the listing covers

The approved end uses, retentions and species are set out in the product listing, and that document is the one to specify from. Anything outside it needs a conversation with technical services first.

Specifying with confidence

Match the use category to the exposure, confirm the retention against the listing, then plan fasteners and finishing to suit. Following those three steps in order removes most of the questions that reach us late in a project.

In service

Treated wood does its work quietly for decades. Where a project needs evidence of that performance, the field-trial record and the third-party listings are both available through the resource center.
