With the continued apprehension over the longevity of timber in ground contact and the confusion over other offerings that are available and how they can help with the various sectors of the fencing industry the AFI is to host a conference on timber in ground contact and the alternatives.
The conference will give all in the industry a chance to have an open discussion - individuals and manufacturers will be able to look at solutions and progress the situation, discussing new treatments, uncertainties on chemical treatments and existing warranties.
We will also touch on the sustainability and environmental credentials of products within ground contact and construction of fences as we move to a desire for Net Zero within the construction industry by 2050.
