Is a collaboration betwee nGloucester Timber Company (Nicks) and Protek, formed to help solve two of the most important problems for the Timber Industry?

  • Chinese Exterior Quality Plywood De-Laminating
  • Pre-Treated Timber rotting at recut untreated ends

Our ESP tells us the answers to these issues are ESP Panels™ and ESP Timber™

As the world turns to greener building materials there is only one truly carbon negative one to choose from – timber.  The longer the timber or timber based product lasts the better for; the planet, the structure built, your reputation as a vendor of quality products.  Good site practise insists all treated timber is re-treated if cut and the same can now be applied to all sheet materials, all edges of all sheets should be sealed.

Why ESP Panels™?

  • With the market for plywood increasing year on year, there is a vast array of Grades to choose from (with over 50% coming from china)
  • To be safe, specifiers have been over-engineering the plywood to be used to make up for the historic unreliable quality issues
  • When water or moisture enters plywood it splits the glue-line compromising its strength with potentially catastrophic consequences
  • There has never been a sealant specifically designed to prevent water from entering the inner core of panels – until now
  • Tested by TRADA™
  • Proven to prevent water/moisture ingress and thus improve the strength and longevity of panel products
  • Reduce claims for poor plywood by recommending and selling ESP Panels™ with every pack of plywood
  • Save money by not over-specifying the grade of plywood to be used
  • Increase you confidence in the strength of the sheet materials used
  • ESP Panel also acts as a glue sealing joints in flat roofs to keep everything below it dry
  • 1 litre seals 21 sheets of 18mm plywood
