 KOPPERS PROTIM WB7 – THE END COAT TREATMENT THAT HAS YOUR BACK

Maintaining outdoor wooden structures during cold winter months is crucial to ensure their endurance, structural integrity, and visual appeal. Considering the damp weather conditions in the UK, protecting the exposed end grain in structures like outdoor furniture, fences, and sheds is especially important, as these areas are most susceptible to rot and decay from moisture.

Regular maintenance with an end coat solution, such as Koppers PROTIM WB7, provides proactive defense against the damaging effects of outdoor elements.

A Preventative Approach is Always Helpful

Timber maintenance is essential year-round, but winter poses unique challenges. Freezing temperatures, strong winds, and relentless rainfall can compromise the lifespan of wooden structures. Damp wood becomes a breeding ground for fungi and pests. Taking timely precautions mitigates risks of decay, infestation, and other deterioration, regardless of the environment.

Protecting End-to-End

End coat sealing is a crucial part of timber preparation and maintenance that should never be overlooked. Every cut or nick in the wood exposes vulnerable surfaces to moisture, frost, fungi, and pests. Over time, these threats can weaken structures, make them visually unappealing, and pose potential safety risks.

PROTIM WB7 to the Rescue

Koppers offers PROTIM WB7, a high-quality, quick-drying, water-based end coat sealing treatment formulated to protect the most vulnerable parts of timber. When applied to freshly cut surfaces, it penetrates deeply into the wood fibers, creating a robust protective barrier. It can also be applied to older structures to enhance their resistance to harsh conditions, maintain their appearance, and provide long-lasting protection.

Available in green, brown, and clear variants, PROTIM WB7 complements the aesthetics of outdoor furniture and structures. It offers multi-faceted protection, preventing moisture intrusion, inhibiting wood-rotting fungi, and deterring pests. This ensures wood remains strong and durable for years.

Don’t Neglect Timber Care

Investing in end-coat sealing treatment helps prevent a wide range of issues. PROTIM WB7 is popular for its dual function of protecting timber while enhancing its aesthetics. It can be applied directly to pressure-treated timber, shielding it against harsh weather. The colored variants allow easy identification of treated areas.

With innovations like PROTIM WB7, timber structures can withstand winter conditions and remain sustainable for the long term. Acting as a protective barrier, it helps timber last longer, come rain or shine.
