Gulf Coast Lumber sells a full line of Southern Yellow
Pine pressure treated lumber ready to ship in bundles
or as pieces to your project from locations across the
Gulf Coast Region including Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi,
Alabama and Florida.
Southern Yellow Pine
is the preferred species for pressure treatment because
of its unique cellular structure that permits deep,
uniform penetration of preservatives. Some 85%
of all pressure treated lumber produced in the U.S.
is Southern Pine. In addition to being the strongest
softwood structural pine, it is abundantly grown, and
dimensionally stable.

Pressure Treated Lumber Options |
|
|
We
specialize in pressure treated lumber products.
We sell wood and pressure treated lumber products to
meet your requirements and in accordance with national
and local regulations.
Most dimensional pressure treated lumber is treated
either ACQ (Alkaline Copper Quat), MCQ (Micronized Copper
Quat) or MCA (Micronized Copper Azole). Larger
dimensional lumber (2x8 and above) can be treated with
CCA(Chromated Copper Arsenate) but only for use in certain
commercial construction applications.
CCA Pressure
Treated Lumber
CCA is considered by many professionals to be the best
treatment for lumber. It is clean to work with, long-lasting,
and relatively non-corrosive to metal hardware and fasteners.
ACQ Pressure
Treated Lumber
ACQ treated lumber is an effective product approved
for consumer use. ACQ has been in use since 1990 for
projects ranging from decks to docks to piers. ACQ is
more corrosive to hardware and fasteners than CCA and
MCQ so coated hardware and fasteners needs to be used
with ACQ treated lumber. We no longer sell this
product.
MCQ Pressure
Treated Lumber
MCQ treated lumber is an excellent choice for dimensional
lumber as it relatively non-corrosive to hardware
and fasteners and does not leach as much as ACQ. It
is odorless and colorless. In fact, MCQ treated
lumber looks so natural it is sometimes returned by
customers who argue it was delivered untreated.
MCA Pressure
Treated Lumber
MCA treated lumber is another excellent choice for
dimensional lumber. Like MCQ it is relatively non-corrosive
to hardware and fasteners and does not leach as much
as ACQ. MCA pressure treated lumber can also
be tinted at time of treatment to either a Cedar or
Redwood color.

Extended Durability
- For an even longer lasting bulkhead or retaining wall,
use our polymer coating on your rough treated lumber
components. Our polymer coating adds extra protection
against attacks to your treated wood from marine borers
and UV rays. Our polymer vinyl coating stops the chemicals
used for pressure treating from leaching - meaning the
treatment stays in the lumber forever to protect and
preserve your investment. |
