Pac-Bor'* lumber for Sill & Plate Proven. Tested. Inspected.

How can Pac-BorrNI lumber simplify your life? According to dealers, Pac-Borrrlr lumber and pl5rwood has the best yardability of all waterborne treated woods. And since two inch or less Pac-Borrrlr lumber and pl5rwood achleves near lOOo/o penetration, there is no need for field treatment of sawn ends. Workers also need take no more precautions than they would when handling untreated lumber. The active in€Fedients are not listed under California's Prop. 65, so consumer warnings are unnecessary. And every charge of Pac-Bor'IM lumber and pl5rwood is certified by an independent inspection company as havlng reached penetration and retention standards.
