Post In-Ground Decay

Post Protector - Decay ProtectionWhen you have any sort of construction with your main supports in the ground you will have decay occur. In-ground post decay is often misunderstood and a lot of people believe it is cause simply by moisture. It may surprise you to learn that moisture is not the cause of decay but it is a condition that is needed for decay to happen.

The three conditions needed for decay:

  1. Moisture saturation of wood fiber
  2. Oxygen
  3. Temperature between 40-100 degrees

When you have these three conditions then soil fungi will feed on the wood fiber and the decay process begins. Treated lumber that is used for outside and in ground construction is treated with a pesticide that is specifically formulated to envenom the wood fiber so it won’t be a suitable food source for the soil fungi.

Post Protector Protection

To fight soil decay Post Protector adds barrier protection that works by eliminating soil-to-post contact. This keeps the soil fungi from feeding on the woof fibers. Your posts remain protected and therefore remain intact for years to come and that gives your structure strength and stability.

For over the last 10 years this product has shown to be effective in protecting posts that are anchored in the ground. Post Protector combines strength, durability, and the kind
of the tough exterior that’s going to deliver the long-lasting performance, you demand.
