Carmo Wooden Post
SKU
GR8867
- Welcome to the new age of no rot posts.
- Carmo® posts are manufactured out of slow grown maritime pine which increases the strength of the post by ensuring each post has the maximum number of tightly packed growth rings.
- Our posts are peeled posts not machined rounded which maintains the natural strength of the timber by not interfering with the tubular structure.
- Carmo® posts are naturally air dried to reduce the likelihood of the severe splitting caused by un-natural kiln drying processes.
- These posts are pressure treated with Tanalith E 8000 treatment once the moisture content has reached a maximum of 20% resulting in total penetration of the sap wood right up to the heartwood.
- These posts look great and they maintain the attractive appearance of traditional orchards and stock fences without sacrificing strength or longevity.
- Carmo® posts are guaranteed against premature decay during the first 20 years. Any post that has broken due to premature decay will be replaced equally as new.
- Please call our sales office to see if we can help with your post and fencing needs.
Carmo Wooden Posts: The New Age of No-Rot Fencing Solutions
Introduction
Introducing Carmo Wooden Posts, the premium choice for long-lasting, naturally strong fencing solutions. These exceptional posts represent the culmination of traditional craftsmanship and modern preservation technology, offering unparalleled durability and aesthetic appeal for your agricultural, equestrian, or landscaping projects. With a remarkable 20-year guarantee against premature decay, Carmo posts stand as a testament to quality and reliability in an industry where longevity matters.
Superior Construction from Nature's Best Materials
Carmo posts are manufactured exclusively from slow-grown maritime pine, carefully selected for its exceptional structural integrity. Unlike conventional wooden posts, the slow growth process ensures each Carmo post contains the maximum number of tightly packed growth rings, significantly enhancing the natural strength and resilience of the timber. This meticulous selection process guarantees posts that can withstand the harshest environmental conditions while maintaining their structural integrity year after year.
The manufacturing process preserves the natural characteristics of the wood through a peeling rather than machining process. Unlike machined rounded posts that compromise the timber's inherent strength, Carmo posts are peeled to maintain the natural tubular structure of the wood. This preservation of the timber's original form ensures optimal structural integrity throughout the post's lifetime, providing superior load-bearing capacity and resistance to environmental stresses.
Advanced Natural Drying and Preservation
Carmo's commitment to quality extends to their unique drying methodology. Each post undergoes a natural air-drying process, eliminating the severe splitting commonly associated with artificial kiln drying. This patient, natural approach preserves the wood's cellular structure and significantly reduces the likelihood of cracking or warping over time, ensuring your fence line maintains its aesthetic appeal and structural integrity for decades.
Once the moisture content reaches the optimal level of 20%, the posts undergo a comprehensive pressure treatment with Tanalith E 8000, an industry-leading wood preservative. This precise timing allows for complete penetration of the preservative from the sapwood right through to the heartwood, creating an impenetrable barrier against fungal decay, insect infestation, and moisture damage. The result is a post that offers unmatched protection against the elements while remaining environmentally responsible.
Aesthetic Appeal Meets Functional Excellence
Beyond their exceptional durability, Carmo wooden posts bring timeless aesthetic appeal to your property. Their natural appearance evokes the traditional charm of classic orchards and stock fences, enhancing the visual appeal of your landscape without compromising on strength or longevity. The preserved natural texture and coloration of the wood blend harmoniously with rural and agricultural settings, creating fencing solutions that complement rather than detract from your property's natural beauty.
Industry-Leading 20-Year Guarantee
Carmo stands firmly behind the quality of their posts with an industry-leading 20-year guarantee against premature decay. This exceptional warranty reflects the manufacturer's confidence in their product and provides peace of mind for property owners making a significant investment in their fencing infrastructure. In the unlikely event that a post succumbs to premature decay within the guarantee period, Carmo will replace it equally as new, ensuring your fencing solution remains intact and functional with minimal disruption.
