Wood is a popular building material. Stable and at the same time light, versatile, robust and aesthetically pleasing. At the same time, wood is a natural raw material that needs to be protected - from the effects of weather such as sun and rain, heat and cold, but also from fungi and insects. Products from LANXESS are convincing with their strength and quality.
In the industrial pressure vessel process, for example, these active substances are introduced deep into the wood against wood-damaging organisms. This results in durability at the level of endangered tropical woods. LANXESS Preservatives of the Preventol brand also protect wood coatings, dispersion paints, lacquers and plasters from destructive and discoloring organisms. LANXESS thus offers active substances for all wood protection cases. And the longer a carport, terrace or garden fence is used to preserve its natural beauty, the less raw material wood is consumed.
