Best Answer

TANALISED timber relates to timber that has been industrially treated with TANALITH preservative under vacuum in an enclosed treatment vessel.

The preservative manufacturer, Arch Timber Protection, has a website at www.archtp.com with a Consumer Information Sheet which contains advice regarding compatible glues for TANALISED E pressure treated timber. A range of glues are advised, depending on the end use of the treated timber.

Tanalised is a term used in Europe for wood that has been treated to resist rot and insects. In the US it is known as CCA, after the metals used in treating the wood- Chrome, Copper, and Arsenic.
