'what is treated pine'?
I’ve worked with treated pine a couple of times for outdoor projects, so I can explain it in simple terms. Basically, treated pine is just regular pine wood that’s been chemically treated to make it more durable. The treatment helps protect the wood from things like termites, rot, and weather damage, which is why it’s often used for fencing, decks, pergolas, and garden beds. From my experience, it’s affordable and easy to work with compared to hardwoods. When I was building a small deck, I went with treated pine Sydney suppliers because it gave me the balance of strength and cost-effectiveness I needed. The only thing to keep in mind is that treated pine can have a slightly greenish tint due to the chemicals, but you can stain or paint it to get the look you want. So yeah, treated pine is a practical choice if you want something budget-friendly, long-lasting, and versatile for both indoor and outdoor projects.
