Wood protection

An unmatched wood preservative and antiseptic for over a century

Creosote is a wood-protection substance that extends the service life (to 30 years) of outdoor heavy-duty applications such as railway sleepers and utility poles.

Having proved its value for over 100 years, creosote continues to be the biocide of choice across the globe for these applications. Creosote's ability to prevent rot extends the life of wooden infrastructure, thereby reducing the need to harvest new trees.

Creosote is a mixture of defined coal tar fractions that have biocidal properties.
