Benefits of Wespine Blue for the Builder
High Affordability
Now Builders can afford to provide the additional assurance of a termite and European House Borer protected
frame for their clients.
Peace of Mind
Not only will the Builder have peace of mind that their home's wall and roof
framing will be protected from termite and European House Borer destruction but will be able to provide
their clients with the same peace of mind. This means that even if termites do get
into the home, the potential for them to do serious damage is very limited.
Guarantee
The transferable 25 year conditional guarantee on protection of treated framing
timber against termites and European House Borer ensures that the Builder is covered for the long term.
Builders can recommend Wespine Blue treated framing to their clients and be confident that they
will not have call backs for termite and borer damage to the treated structural timber (see guarantee form for conditions).
This will also help Builders differentiate their projects by promoting the additional value of termite and European House Borer
resistant construction to their clients.
Traceability
Koppers Arch Tanalised timber marking and guarantee program provides Builders
and Homeowners with the documentation and support that they need.

components such as fastener corrosion, plasterboard adhesion or painting.

construction of the project is by the same method as untreated framing timber.
The use Wespine Blue pine framing allows greater flexibility in the design

on the construction time or finished quality.

handling and can be disposed of with normal untreated timber and building wastes.

it is to offer Wespine Blue treated framing timber, Builders will find that
sourcing treated framing timber is easy and fast. Due to industry requests, an
increased range of Wespine Blue

which means that it is durable to exposure during construction and good for the
long term once in the finished structure. Normal exposure during transport,
storage and construction will not reduce the effectiveness of the treatment.
