NEW YORK -- Timber Treatment Technologies and Huttig Building Products, Inc. have entered into a national agreement for Huttig to distribute lumber treated with TTT's TimberSIL, the first and only non-toxic process to provide a protective barrier against most wood protection problems such as rot and decay. 
  Lumber treated with TimberSIL provides a non-toxic, non-corrosive, non- carcinogenic barrier against most wood protection problems. It also improves the durability of lumber used in residential construction. Ideal for decking applications, it is also designed for interior and exterior, above-ground and in-ground use, and is fully stainable and paintable.
  Huttig will begin distribution of TimberSIL-treated lumber in early 2006, initially through two treatment facilities. Northern Crossarm Co., an independent treater located in Chippewa, WI, will supply Huttig's Midwestern branches. TTT's own treatment facility in Greenville, SC, will provide TimberSIL-treated wood throughout the Carolinas. Huttig plans to continue to expand distribution of TimberSIL as facilities are licensed throughout the remainder of 2006 and into 2007.
