Important Handling Information

• Do not burn preserved wood.
• Wear a dust mask and goggles when cutting or sanding wood.
• Wear gloves when working with wood.
• Some preservative may migrate from the treated wood into soil/water or may dislodge from the treated wood surface upon contact with skin.
• Wash exposed skin areas thoroughly.
• All sawdust and construction debris should be cleaned up and disposed of after construction.
• Wash work clothes separately from other household clothing before re-use.
• Preserved wood should not be used where it may come into direct contact or indirect contact with drinking water, except for uses involving incidental contact such as fresh water docks and bridges.
• Do not use preserved wood under circumstances where the preservative may become a component of food, animal feed, or beehives.
• Do not use preserved wood for mulch. Only preserved wood that is visibly clean and free of surface residue should be used.
• Do not use preserved wood in direct contact with aluminium. If wood is to be used in an interior application and becomes wet during construction, it should be allowed to dry before being covered or enclosed.
• Disposal Recommendations: Preserved wood may be disposed of in landfills or burned in commercial or industrial incinerators or boilers in accordance with National and Regional regulations.
• If you desire to apply a paint, stain, clear water repellent or other finish to your preserved wood, we recommend following the manufacturer’s instructions and label of the finishing product.
  
  Before you start, we recommend that you apply the finishing product to a small test area before finishing the entire project to ensure that it provides the intended result.
• Certain metal products (including fasteners, hardware and flashing) may corrode when in direct contact with wood treated with copper based preservatives. To prevent premature corrosion and failure it is important to follow the recommendations of the manufacturer for all metal products.
• Mould growth can and does occur on the surface of many products, including treated or untreated wood, during prolonged surface exposure to excessive moisture conditions. To remove mould from treated wood surfaces, wood should be allowed to dry. Typically, mild soap and water can be used to remove surface mould.
