POST PROTECTORS™ | UNDERSTANDING DECAY

Post Protector™ is a “barrier system” used to extend the service life of the in-ground sections of pressure-treated posts/poles used in the support of structures such as:

Pole barn

  1. Pole barns

  2. Retaining walls

  3. Decks

  4. Fences

  5. Pergolas

  6. Other “post-in-ground” projects
     

For decay to occur, three key ingredients must be present: oxygen, moisture, and temperatures between 40–100°F.

Post Protector™ breaks the decay recipe by eliminating direct soil-to-post contact, removing two of the critical ingredients:

  • Micro-organisms – Soil-dwelling microbes can’t easily reach the wood, preventing them from feeding on the wood fiber.

  • Moisture – The barrier helps keep damaging moisture away from the post surface.

Stop decay before it starts with Post Protector™.
