New Zealand’s Building Industry Federation has embarked on a campaign to advise consumers about how to use treated timber.
The action, a co-ordinated industry effort, aims to give people common-sense safety practices when dealing with treated timber.
It involves posters, flyers and training materials for retail staff, funded by the industry. Producers are already placing orders for the material to provide to their customer base.
A similar campaign in Australia is reportedly meeting equal success.
