Virtually 100% Surface to Core Protection

AuraLast Wood is the result of years of research and development. JELD-WEN designed a proprietary vacuum-pressure process to distribute the protective ingredients into the core of the wood for virtually 100% surface-to-core protection against wood rot. AuraLast also protects against termites and water saturation—two important considerations for homeowners.

Other manufacturers dip-treat their wood components in a solvent-based chemical bath, which only protect the surface. Consequently, the treatment's effectiveness can be compromised when the surface is milled, sanded or subjected to the rigors of weather.

• AuraLast protects against wood rot. AuraLast Wood achieved the 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. AuraLast simply repels termites in the first place. The same vacuum-pressure manufacturing process that protects windows against wood rot also protects against termites, so there’s no need for additional treatments in order to keep your wood windows worry-free. (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 or window 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.)

AuraLast Wood - applied stain and clear coated

AuraLast Wood offers the strength and beauty of real wood because it is 100 percent real wood.

• COLORLESS: The protective water-based solution process does not alter the color of the wood’s natural beauty.
• ODORLESS: The protective water-based solution process does not create offensive odors unlike harsh solvent-based treatment methods.
• STAINABLE: AuraLast Wood can be stained to match any wood tone or color application and no pre-sealers are needed.
• NATURAL: AuraLast Wood is all natural wood and is much easier to work with on the job site than certain composites or PVC materials.

Our water-based solution is safe to handle compared to much harsher, solvent-based treatments.

• 96% fewer Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are released during the manufacturing process than traditional solvent-based dip-treatment methods.
• Durable, long-lasting products mean less waste, fewer replacements, and more efficient use of our natural resources.

Environmental stewardship is important to us. JELD-WEN is proud to be a board-level member of the Green Building Initiative (GBI) and voting member of the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC).
