Why does Altree possess superior decay and termite resistance properties?
Compared to solid wood or other wood composite products, Altree exhibits vastly superior resistance to fungal decay. Because the wood fiber in Altree is encapsulated with recycled high density polyethylene, exposure of the wood to elevated moisture content is greatly reduced, thereby removing an essential ingredient for promoting fungal decay. Studies also have shown that resin extracts from juniper or pine, which are used in Altree, possess significant anti-fungal and anti-termite properties. Back To Top 14.
