WHAT IS AURALAST WOOD?
AuraLast Wood is the result of years of research and development, producing an exceptional pine wood that lasts and lasts...for many years to come.
The proprietary vacuum-pressure process with leading-edge technology is designed to distribute the active ingredients into the very core of the wood for virtually 100% surface to core protection against wood rot, termites, and water saturation (shown at right in green) .
In contrast, other manufacturers use dip-treated wood (shown at right in red), which is protected on the surface only. This means the treatment's effectiveness will be compromised when the surface is broken during installation.

TRUSTED RELIABILITY

- AuraLast protects against wood rot
AuraLast Wood achieved highest performance levels to withstand wood rot as measured by the Window and Door Manufacturing Association (WDMA) industry standard. (WDMA T.M. 1 Soil Block test, AWPA E9-97 and AWPA E10-91) - AuraLast protects against subterranean termites
Termites cause billions of dollars of damage to homes in the United States every year. And they are aggressive; Formosan Termites can chew through materials such as thin sheets of soft metal, plastics, rubbers, stucco, and styrene to reach their food source. (Tested to highest levels of performance as measured by AWPA E1-97 standard method for laboratory evaluation to determine resistance to subterranean termites) - AuraLast protects against water saturation
AuraLast Wood offers superior resistance to water and protects wood against swelling. This helps prevent the door from sticking so it will open and close easily regardless of weather conditions. (Far exceeds the requirements of WDMA IS-4, T.M. 2 Swellometer Test as measured by anti-swelling efficiency.)
