The Southern Forest Products Association (SFPA) has published a new 2014 Edition of the booklet “Pressure-Treated Southern Pine.”
It provides information to assist with the proper specification and use of pressure-treated Southern Pine materials.
A copy is now available as a free PDF download at www.SouthernPine.com. “It represents a complete reorganization and revision of the previous edition,” says SFPA’s Eric Gee, director of treated markets.
