Wykabor Powder

Wykabor Powder is the widely used, high performance Borate Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate.

Wood treated with Wykabor Powder can be used for a variety of purposes. Typical applications include trussed rafters, studding, cladding, and exterior joinery. Wykabor Powder has proven efficacy against wood decay fungi, wood boring beetles and termites.

Supplied as a powder is flexible with regard to application methodology. Wykamol Powder can be applied as a pre-treatment by  vacuum-pressure processes to dry or green timber, and by dip diffusion to green timber. The ability to treat green timber successfully and the subsequent diffusion of borates in wood enables penetration of species known to be difficult to treat, such as douglas fir, spruce and many hard woods.
