Ecological, chromium-free pressure impregnation in compliance with the highest European standards.

Impregnation

Certified protection for maximum longevity

For the long-term preservation of our wood poles, we rely exclusively on tested and certified preservatives. These active ingredients provide seamless and durable protection against biological degradation, fungal attack and wood-destroying insects. In this way we guarantee you maximum service life and the highest investment security for your networks and installations.

Tanalith® E3475

Technical superiority in wood protection: Tanalith® E3475

Our salt-impregnated pole systems offer maximum investment security through state-of-the-art impregnation technology:

  • Future-proof & environmentally conscious: Use of Tanalith® E3475 in accordance with the current EU Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR). The formulation is completely free of chromium and arsenic.
  • Permanent fixation: The copper-triazole-based active ingredients bond inseparably with the wood fibre and offer extremely high leaching resistance.
  • Maximum protection level: Professional impregnation to use class 4 - specially developed for tough outdoor use with direct ground contact.
  • Biological protective shield: Absolutely reliable defence against wood-destroying fungi, insects and wood-degrading microorganisms.

Wolmanit® CX 8

Wolmanit® CX-8 - powerful wood protection for demanding applications

For applications with increased technical and ecological requirements, we also offer our wood poles with Wolmanit® CX-8 impregnation. The water-based premium wood preservative is free of chromium and boron and was developed specifically for the durable protection of wood in demanding outdoor areas.

The highly effective formulation provides preventive protection against wood-destroying fungi, including soft-rot pathogens, as well as against wood-destroying insects and termites. The basis of its effectiveness is, among other things, the proven active ingredient copper HDO, which has been used successfully in professional wood protection for many years.

After impregnation, the active ingredients fix themselves quickly and permanently in the wood structure. As a result, wood poles treated with Wolmanit® CX-8 are particularly leaching-resistant, weather-stable and suitable for long-term outdoor use - even with high requirements for soil, water and vegetation protection.

Wood poles impregnated with Wolmanit® CX-8 combine technical performance, high durability and modern environmental protection. They are thus a high-quality solution for infrastructure projects in which longevity, operational safety and ecological compatibility are equally decisive.

Korasit® KS 2

Technical wood protection for permanently stressed wood poles - chromium- and boron-free, for pressure impregnation in use classes 1 to 4.

For demanding infrastructure projects, we also offer our wood poles with Korasit® KS2. The water-soluble, liquid wood preservative is chromium- and boron-free and was developed specifically for the professional pressure impregnation of wood in use classes 1 to 4.

The formulation is based on copper complex compounds as well as a highly effective quaternary ammonium compound. As a result, Korasit KS2 provides the wood with preventive protection against wood-destroying fungi and insects; in addition, an efficacy test against termites is available.

After impregnation, the preservative fixes itself quickly in the wood and ensures durable, weather-resistant protection. Wood poles impregnated with Korasit® KS2 are therefore particularly suitable for long-term outdoor use - even with ground contact and high requirements for durability, operational safety and service life.

As a biocidal product approved in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, Korasit® KS2 combines technical performance with modern regulatory requirements. This creates robust, durable and standard-compliant wood poles for energy, telecommunications and infrastructure projects in which reliable wood protection and ecological responsibility are equally required.

To the full FAQ
Is salt impregnation environmentally friendly?

Yes, absolutely. For the environmentally sound protection of our induo® round wood poles, we rely on state-of-the-art technology and ecologically thoroughly tested products. With a 3% to 6% salt solution, the impregnation agents used are primarily the chromate-, arsenic- and boron-free branded products Tanalith, Wolmanit CX 8 and Korasit KSM/KS2.

Safe deep protection through pressure impregnation
Wood poles in outdoor areas are exposed to extreme weather and direct ground contact. We cover this special protection requirement seamlessly through the pressure impregnation process. The modern, fixing salts penetrate deep into the wood and provide safe, lasting protection against fungi, soft rot and insects - without polluting the environment.

The advantages of induo® salt impregnation at a glance:

  • Highest safety standards: All impregnations we use comply with the strictest global requirements and are approved worldwide.
  • Harmless to health: There is no health risk whatsoever from natural wood constituents or from the applied preservative.
  • Ideal for sensitive use: Perfectly suited to all applications in which people come into direct contact with the wood.
  • Characteristic appearance: After the salts have been fixed in the wood, the round wood poles acquire their typical, slightly greenish colouring.
Do you supply ready-to-install poles?

Yes, we supply our poles in the efficient “Plug & Play” format. In order to maximise the speed of your workflows on the construction site, we take care of the complete pre-fabrication directly at the plant.

Precision to your specifications
Production is carried out exactly according to your customer-specific requirements, based on technical production drawings prepared specifically by induo®.

Our factory preparation service includes:

  • Precise woodworking: Carrying out all necessary milling, notching and drilling before impregnation.
  • Complete assembly: Professional application of LoPro wood-protection bandages
  • Certification & traceability: Attaching all necessary certification markings, labels and seals.

Thanks to this seamless preparation, the poles are ready for immediate use on delivery. This saves you valuable time and on-site installation costs.

How are logistics and delivery times structured?

Flexible, global and extremely fast. Thanks to our strategic stock of more than 80,000 poles, we guarantee you immediate support for your investment projects with no long waiting times. We deliver exactly to your requirements in accordance with the international standards DAP (delivered at place) or CFR (freight to the desired seaport) under the current Incoterms rules.

An overview of our logistics capacities:

  • Regional & Europe-wide: Reliable just-in-time delivery of individual truck loads directly to your construction site or central warehouse.
  • Worldwide & overseas: Handling of large-scale projects via efficient bulk-container shipments from seaports on all five continents.
