Cardiff-based Baltic Timber Treatment Ltd has teamed up with SIA BKA Andrejosta to open a £100,000 timber treatment centre in Riga.
The facility is next to Riga commercial port and will offer CCA treatment in green or brown with certificates of treatment if required.
Director Roy Le Gros advises potential customers with regular timber cargoes to be treated to reserve slots as, at certain times of the year, the plant will be busy with fencing and agricultural markets.
He added: ‘In the months of October to February or March the treatment of timber can be difficult with packs being frozen.’
He advises customers to contact the company to discuss the best way to present packs for treatment.
‘If required we will provide facilities where timber can be stabilised within our warming cabinets prior to treatment,’ he added.
