Sioo Wood Protection AB The SiOO:X Wood Protection System is different; it is not a coating, but an envelope that pen- etrates the wood surface. The protection system has two components; the first penetrates the wood where it reacts with atmospheric carbon dioxide to gradually form an inert glassy polymer. The second component acts to seal and protect the first application until it is fully cured, but it also forms an inert water resistant envelope which creates a grey surface appearance. The silicon-oxygen chemical bonds (the same as in glass) in the cured polymer are stable to ultraviolet light. Just as important, the wood now has an even weathered appearance once the protection system cures. This means that the unsightly patchy weathering of exterior wood cladding is no longer a problem. SiOO:X Wood Protection locks in the beauty of wood.

Unlike timber, Plaswood is impervious to the influence of water or damp and therefore will not rot, splinter, crack or degrade with age. Available in jet black and earth brown the single and double gates come with a galvanized frame and steel posts allowing the gates to be set directly into the ground. The gates can be finished with flat, round, chamfered or pointed tops and supplied with a locking system and access from both sides or inside only for increased security. Mike Baxter, External Affairs Director said: “At the Plaswood Group, we serve a broad range of businesses across the construction and landscaping spectrum with our perfect wood substitute. Plaswood is extremely versatile, plus having a life expectancy of at least 50 years, purchasers can make savings in both labour costs and materials when switching from wood to Plaswood.” Website: www.plaswoodgroup.com | Telephone: 0333 202 6800 Kitchens and Copper Go Hand in Handle at HandleStore!
