ProWood
®
Color Treated is the latest
advancement in pressure-treated lumber.
Not only is it treated with an EPA-registered
waterborne wood preservative system to
protect against termite attack and fungal
decay, it’s also color-infused, so pigment is
driven deep into the wood fibers, creating
beauty that’s guaranteed to stand up to the
elements for years.
Top COLOR TREATED Benefits:
• 2-year color assurance (no fade)
limited warranty
• Natural wood characteristics still visible,
unlike with paint or solid stain
• Lifetime limited warranty against termite
attack and rot (fungal decay)
*color may vary per region
