pring has arrived
and as we start to
see some more
sunshine it is time
to dust off your
electric fencing
system and get it up and running
again. Perhaps you use it to strip
graze and divide your summer
pastures or maybe the electric
fence is to keep unwanted rabbits
out of the vegetable patch.

maintenance as easy as possible.

save you time now is the time….

here has been
significant
speculation about
the quality of the
chemicals, and the
quality of the
treatment processes as a result of
these early failures, and actions
have been taken by both chemical
manufacturers, and the WPA, to try
and ensure that only correctly
seasoned timber, which has been
correctly processed for use in
ground contact.
Calders and Grandidge are one
of just a few treatment plants in the
UK that have achieved WPA
Benchmark Accreditation of our
treatment processes, and added
to this, our Celcure treated
redwood products also come with
a 15yr guarantee backed by the
chemical manufacturer, Koppers.
As a result of our accreditation
and guarantee, Calders and
Grandidge have experienced a
large increase in demand for
fencing products treated with
T
Celcure over the past years.
As a result of these wellpublicised issues for green
fencing, Calders and Grandidge
have found that more and more
farmers have been buying their
tried and tested creosoted fencing
which offers the longest service life
of all currently available
treatments. During 2015, sales of
creosoted fencing grew
tremendously, and last summer
demand almost exceeded supply.
We have now secured both
supplies of creosote and fencing
materials, and are well placed for
what we expect to be another
record year for the sales of
creosoted fencing here at Calders
and Grandidge.
