Sikagard® Universal 5 Star Wood Treatment

Sikagard® Universal 5 Star Wood Treatment

Triple action treatment for rot (wet and dry), fungi and wood-boring insects

Sikagard® Universal 5 Star Wood Treatment is a water-based, solvent free solution based on micro-fine active technology that both treats and preserves wood at the same time. Sikagard® Universal 5 Star Wood Treatment contains fungicides, algaecides and Permethrin to actively kill and protect against all known wood rot, decay, fungi and wood-boring insects. The fungicides and algaecides present in this formulation are finely dispersed, enabling deep penetration, meaning that effectiveness of the treatment is much greater than standard wood preservation products. Sikagard® Universal 5 Star Wood Treatment is fast drying and non-flammable, and application to wet timber is possible without loss of performance.  

  • Highly penetrating due to micro-fine active technology.
  • Non-flammable.
  • Internal and external use.
  • Application to damp timber is possible, with no loss of performance.
  • Solvent-free formulation.
  • Can be overpainted, stained or varnished when dry.
