Chemonite® Wood: Product Applications
Chemonite® wood is especially appropriate for industrial, utility, marine, and heavy construction applications, particularly those where coastal Douglas fir or other refractory species are used or where longevity is a concern. Typical applications include:
| • Utility poles – distribution & transmission |
| • Building poles |
| • Foundation piling |
| • Marine piling – fresh or saltwater |
| • Sawn timbers or supporting columns used for bridges, barns, decks or other uses |
| • Agricultural posts |
| • Post frame construction |
| • Highway construction |
An application recently approved by the American Wood Protection Association (AWPA) is
railroad crossties. In January 2010, AWPA included the new application in its Book of Standards.
