The pressure treatment process is essential for protecting wood products from decay, fungi, termites, and the elements. This video provides a step-by-step overview of the computerised industrial process used to treat wood.
We explain the five key steps wood goes through when being pressure treated:
- Vacuum to remove air from the treatment cylinder
- Transfer of protective treatment solution into the cylinder
- Pressurization to force treatment solutions deep into the wood
- Returning extra solution back into storage
- Final vacuum cycle to prepare wood for removal
Throughout we showcase how modern technology like computerised process controls ensure proper preservative levels and weather resistance. For anyone curious how pressure treatment gives wood products their enhanced durability and longevity when used outdoors, this is an informative watch.
Key Features:
- Full five stage explanation of the pressure treatment process
- Demonstrates the industrial equipment used like vacuum pumps
- Shows how computerised systems automate and control the process
- Reveals what's inside the protective treatment solutions
- Explains the importance of testing samples after treatment

The pressure treatment process begins with untreated wood products being transferred into the treatment cylinder. Once the wood is inside the treating cylinder, the door is closed and sealed, and a computerized process control system starts the pressure treatment process.
Step 1- The first step in the treatment process begins when a vacuum pump removes the air from the treating cylinder.
Step 2- When the vacuum step is complete, the next step of the process is transferring the treatment solution from a storage tank to the cylinder. The treatment solution consists of water and preservatives that are designed to help protect the wood from fungal decay and termite attack.
Step 3- Once the cylinder is completely full with the treatment solution, the next step is to pressurize the cylinder using a pressure pump. The increased pressure in the cylinder forces the treatment solution into the wood.
Step 4- When the pressure cycle is complete, the next step is to transfer the remaining treatment solution back into a storage tank.
Step 5- The final step in the pressure treatment cycle is to initiate a final vacuum.
Once the vacuum cycle is complete, the cylinder door is opened and the pressure treated wood is removed from the treatment cylinder and the process is finished.
Following treatment, samples of treated wood are tested for proper preservative penetration and retention.
