Our state-of-the-art accelerated testing facilities rigorously evaluate timber protection systems against moisture, fungal decay, and extreme weather under controlled conditions.
By replicating years of real-world exposure in just months, we gather reliable, evidence-based performance data using recognized industry standards.
Proven Products In The Lab & Field
Timber protection claims should be based on evidence.
That’s why we have invested in two accelerated testing facilities at our Gloucestershire headquarters, giving us greater capacity to investigate how timber and timber protection systems perform under challenging conditions.
Our new facilities include an accelerated fungal testing cellar and accelerated weather testing chamber. These allow us to investigate the performance of treated and untreated timber, barrier protection products and other protection systems under controlled conditions.

Viktige funksjoner
State of the art fungal cellar testing
Temperature maintained at 27°C
High wood and soil moisture content of 90% to accelerate the decay process
Calibrated data logging for real-time monitoring and recording
Periodic reporting to assess relative decay and water uptake
Tour The Fungal Cellar Test Facility
Forvitringstestkammer
The weather testing chamber is designed to evaluate decay prevention and fire protection barrier systems. It can accommodate up to nine samples at a time.
Accelerated testing means that 500 hours in the chamber is equivalent to approximately one year in the field, allowing a year’s worth of data to be gathered in less than one month.
Viktige funksjoner
Chamber temperature maintained at 50 °C
High-intensity UVA exposure
Controlled moisture exposure
Calibrated data logging for real-time monitoring and recording
Weekly reporting to assess performance
Testing in accordance with ASTM D4329 weathering testing standard

why accelerated testing matters?
Field trials remain an important part of understanding timber performance and Polesaver continues to have products in ongoing independent field trials. However, long-term field testing can take many years, while access to accelerated testing facilities is becoming increasingly difficult.
Our new facilities allow us to investigate products and protection systems more quickly in controlled conditions. That means we can gather useful evidence sooner, support product development and respond more rapidly to changing customer and market requirements.
Testing beyond our own products
We don't believe testing should only be about proving our own products.
The timber industry can be difficult to navigate. Product claims, guarantees and stated service lives can vary considerably, and it isn't always easy to understand what sits behind them.
That's why we are opening our new testing capability to other products.
We can test a range of timber protection products, barrier systems and other solutions alongside our own, helping manufacturers and customers gain a better understanding of how different systems perform.

Alt du trenger er en varmluftspistol på 2 kW+ eller en gassbrenner, og en skumrulle hvis du skal montere på firkantede stolper (stiftemaskin + kniv kreves for Wrap & Tack). Postsaver råtebeskyttede stolper er egnet for montering med gjerdestolpebetong.
1. Mål hulldybden
2. Plasser på stolpen og krymp på
3. Monter stolpen på alle vanlige måter
Påfør selv eller kjøp innlegg med forhåndspåført beskyttelse
Levert rett på døren din, klar til montering. Gratis levering.
Postsaver produserer og leverer garantert råtebeskyttelse som er bevist å forlenge levetiden til tregjerder og portstolper. Vår patenterte råtebeskyttelse er uavhengig testet og dokumentert i storskala bruk siden 1994.

*Ved bruk på stolper som oppfyller kravene i BS8417:2012 – UC4 (bruksklasse 4) eller UC3 (bruksklasse 3). Se garantere for detaljer **Basert på at du ikke må bytte ut gjerdet om 10 år på grunn av stolpebrudd.**
Postsaver bruker langsiktige uavhengige testdata om effektiviteten til barrierehylser og -innpakninger for å komme frem til alle konklusjonene som er gitt på dette nettstedet (testdata tilgjengelig på forespørsel). Basert på disse dataene mener Postsaver at lengre levetid, opprettholdelse av styrke over tid, forbedret sikkerhet og pålitelighet, lengre inspeksjonsperioder og reduserte vedlikeholdskrav er rimelige påstander. Dette er forutsatt at Postsaver-produkter brukes korrekt i henhold til våre instruksjoner og brukes på korrekt impregnerte (bruk klasse 3 eller høyere – bruk klasse 4 anbefales) tregjerdestolper som er fri for råte på tidspunktet for påføring av råtebeskyttelse. Påstandene som fremsettes, reelle eller underforståtte, er ikke garantier. Det er brukerens ansvar å evaluere og forsikre seg om at produktets ytelse oppfyller deres spesifikke sikkerhets-, pålitelighets-, utvidede inspeksjons-, reparasjons- og andre ytelses- eller kostnads-nytte-kriterier før de bruker Postsaver råtebeskyttere.
