Pine plantation timber is a wood species with a low level of natural durability. To improve its service life and the applications it can be used for, it needs to be ‘treated’.

Note: Plantation pine is fast growing, meaning its timber has a greater tendency to ‘move’ with changes in environmental conditions like temperature and humidity. You should be aware that it’s not unusual for individual pieces to endure twist and bow effects. Consider this if you are thinking of using pine for your next deck project.
