At Platinum Chemicals, we are proud to supply the Lignum range of professional and DIY timber and masonry treatments. The Lignum range offers an extensive selection of high-performance wood preservatives and masonry biocides, developed to tackle some of the most common issues affecting timber and masonry, such as woodworm infestations, dry rot, and fungal decay. With products designed for both professionals and DIY users, Lignum ensures that everyone can benefit from long-lasting protection for their structures.
The Lignum Pro range features concentrated wood treatments specially formulated to target wood-boring insects like woodworm and fungi responsible for dry and wet rot. Key products include Lignum Pro I62.5 and Lignum Pro D156, both available in 1 litre concentrated bottles that dilute to make 25 litres of ready-to-use treatment. This makes them not only highly effective but also extremely economical, ideal for treating large areas in both residential and commercial settings.
Lignum Pro I62.5 is a powerful woodworm treatment designed to eradicate existing infestations and prevent future attacks by wood-boring insects. It is based on advanced micro-emulsion technology, which enables the solution to deeply penetrate the timber, reaching the core of the wood where insect larvae may reside. This deep penetration ensures thorough treatment and long-term protection, making Lignum Pro I62.5 an excellent choice for professionals working in preservation and restoration.
For those dealing with both woodworm and fungal decay, Lignum Pro D156 offers a dual-purpose solution. This concentrated timber treatment is formulated to combat woodworm while also protecting against wood-rotting fungi, including both dry rot and wet rot. It penetrates deep into the timber, thanks to its micro-emulsion technology, and provides long-lasting protection against both insects and decay. Whether you are a contractor treating an entire property or a homeowner preserving valuable timber structures, Lignum Pro D156 delivers reliable results.
Both Lignum Pro I62.5 and Lignum Pro D156 are virtually odourless, water-based, and non-flammable, making them safe and easy to use in enclosed spaces. They are also quick-drying, minimising disruption to your project and ensuring faster results. With HSE Approval, these treatments meet the highest safety and efficacy standards, giving users peace of mind that their timber is thoroughly protected.
When tackling severe infestations or deep-seated fungal decay, Lignum Pro Gel offers enhanced protection. This innovative gel-based treatment has a unique 'mayonnaise-like' consistency, allowing it to cling to vertical surfaces and penetrate deep into the wood. Its thixotropic properties ensure that it stays in place, making it ideal for applications where gravity might otherwise cause liquid treatments to drip or run.
Lignum Pro Gel is particularly effective for difficult-to-reach areas or surfaces where traditional liquid treatments may not be suitable. It offers long-lasting protection against woodworm, dry rot, and wet rot, making it a versatile choice for professional contractors dealing with complex timber preservation projects. Available in both 300ml cartridges for precise application and larger 7.5-litre buckets for extensive work, Lignum Pro Gel provides flexibility and ease of use.
In addition to timber treatments, Lignum offers a high-quality solution for dry rot in masonry. Lignum Pro M50 is a concentrated biocide designed specifically for treating dry rot in brickwork and masonry. Dry rot can spread rapidly through damp masonry, causing significant damage to the structure of a building. Lignum Pro M50 penetrates deep into the masonry to eradicate dry rot and prevent its return.
Like the timber treatments, Lignum Pro M50 is available as a concentrate, with each 1-litre bottle diluting to 25 litres of ready-to-use solution. Its micro-emulsion technology ensures that the active ingredients penetrate deeply into the porous surfaces of masonry, providing thorough treatment and long-lasting protection. This product is also water-based, virtually odourless, and quick-drying, making it easy to use in residential settings without causing inconvenience. Lignum Pro M50 is also suitable for use in gauging water when re-rendering treated areas, offering flexibility in its application.
For those looking for a convenient, ready-to-use solution, the Lignum range also includes several DIY-friendly treatments. Lignum Ready-to-Use Woodworm Killer, Lignum Ready-to-Use Wood Preserver, and Lignum Ready-to-Use Universal Wood Preserver offer effective protection without the need for dilution, making them ideal for smaller projects or ongoing maintenance.
Lignum Ready-to-Use Woodworm Killer is perfect for homeowners dealing with woodworm infestations in smaller areas. This product provides fast, reliable eradication of wood-boring insects and can be applied by brush or low-pressure spray for ease of use. It penetrates deep into the timber, offering long-term protection against reinfestation.
For general wood preservation, Lignum Ready-to-Use Wood Preserver is designed to protect timber from fungal decay and insect infestation. It is suitable for both interior and exterior use, providing flexibility in application. This product is best used as a preventative measure, helping to maintain the integrity of timber in areas where there is a risk of rot or woodworm.
Lignum Ready-to-Use Universal Wood Preserver offers even greater protection, as it is double the strength of the standard wood preserver. This product is effective against both woodworm and fungal decay and is suitable for use on a wide range of timber surfaces. Like the other Lignum ready-to-use treatments, it is easy to apply, non-flammable, and virtually odourless, making it a convenient choice for both professionals and DIY users.
All Lignum products carry HSE Approval, ensuring they meet the highest standards of safety and efficacy. These treatments are water-based, non-flammable, and contain no volatile organic compounds (VOCs), making them environmentally conscious and safe for use in enclosed spaces. Whether you are treating a single timber beam or an entire structure, Lignum provides effective, long-lasting protection that is safe for both the user and the environment.
At Platinum Chemicals, we are committed to offering high-quality products that deliver reliable results. The Lignum range of timber and masonry treatments provides comprehensive protection against woodworm, fungal decay, and dry rot, ensuring that your property remains structurally sound and free from damage. Whether you're a professional contractor or a DIY enthusiast, Lignum offers the right solution for your wood preservation needs.
