“Now that the issue of CCA is behind us, the debate is moving to other areas of environmental concern. The Postsaver system is chemical-free, although it can be applied to treated timber. It provides superior protection against decay organisms and termites, while helping prevent preservative leaching into the ground,” said Mr Bergot.

Mr Bergot has 15 years’ experience in senior sales and marketing roles with timber preservative companies, covering both domestic and export markets.
