Construction and Materials
YellaWood® brand treated lumber is a premium choice for outdoor projects, offering both durability and aesthetic appeal. The core of YellaWood® products lies in the specialized pressure-treating process applied to high-quality lumber.
Construction and Materials:
- Wood Species: YellaWood® products are primarily constructed from Southern Yellow Pine (SYP). SYP is selected for its strength, density, and ability to readily accept the treatment process, ensuring deep penetration of preservatives.
- Pressure Treatment Process: The lumber undergoes a rigorous pressure-treating process. This involves placing the lumber in a sealed cylinder and using a vacuum to remove air. Then, the wood preservative solution is introduced under high pressure, forcing it deep into the wood cells. This process is crucial for protecting the lumber from fungal decay and insect attack, significantly extending its service life.
- Preservative System: YellaWood® utilizes an alkaline copper quaternary (ACQ) preservative system. ACQ is known for its effectiveness in protecting wood from rot and decay, especially in ground-contact and above-ground applications. The copper in the formulation provides fungicidal properties, while the quaternary ammonium compounds offer insecticidal protection.
- Coloring: A distinguishing feature of YellaWood® lumber is its signature yellow color. This color is imparted by a water-based stain that is applied during the treating process. This stain not only provides the recognizable hue but also acts as a visual indicator that the wood has been pressure treated.
- Dimensional Lumber: YellaWood® is available in a variety of standard lumber dimensions suitable for decking, fencing, and other construction needs. This includes common sizes for joists, beams, decking boards, and posts.
Applications:
- Decking
- Fencing

Styles
YellaWood offers a range of style options for their wood decking products, primarily focusing on the natural beauty and versatile applications of pressure-treated pine. The core appeal of YellaWood decking lies in its distinctive yellow hue, achieved through their proprietary treatment process. This bright, signature color not only adds visual interest but also serves as a mark of quality and brand identity.
While YellaWood products are inherently a natural wood option, the style is defined by its classic wood grain patterns and the inherent variations found in natural lumber. This allows for a rustic and organic aesthetic that complements a wide variety of outdoor living spaces.
The primary style expression for YellaWood decking is achieved through:
- Color: The trademark YellaWood yellow color is the most prominent stylistic element. This color is designed to be durable and maintain its vibrancy over time.
- Wood Grain: As a natural wood product, YellaWood decking exhibits natural wood grain patterns. These variations contribute to the authentic and organic look of the deck.
- Finish Options: While YellaWood's treatment process itself imparts a specific look, further stylistic customization can be achieved through finishing.

Alternatively, the wood can be stained or painted to match any desired color scheme or design intent, allowing for complete personalization of the outdoor space.
The versatility of YellaWood's style lies in its adaptability. Whether you prefer a bright, distinctive look, the classic weathered appearance of natural wood, or a completely customized color through staining or painting, YellaWood provides a foundation for creating a unique outdoor environment.

Fences
YellaWood fence products are available in a variety of styles.
or Give us a Call
Product Summary
Surround your backyard in good looks. YellaWood® fence products give you beautiful boundaries with distinct style.
Construction and Materials
YellaWood lumber is pressure-treated for enhanced durability and longevity, making it an excellent choice for outdoor applications such as fencing. This treatment process infuses the wood with preservatives that protect against rot, decay, and insect infestation. The company uses a copper-based preservative system, which is known for its effectiveness and relatively low environmental impact.
The lumber is typically sourced from high-quality Southern Yellow Pine, a dense and strong wood species well-suited for structural uses. This species is chosen for its ability to accept and retain the pressure treatment effectively.
Construction and Materials
- Wood Type: Primarily Southern Yellow Pine.
- Treatment Process: Pressure-treated.
- Preservative System: Copper-based.
- Protection Provided: Resistance to rot, decay, and insect damage.
The pressure treatment involves placing the lumber in a sealed vessel, after which a vacuum is drawn to remove air from the wood cells. The preservative solution is then introduced into the vessel under pressure, forcing it deep into the wood structure. This ensures thorough protection throughout the material, not just on the surface.
The distinctive yellow color of YellaWood products is due to the presence of the copper in the preservative system, along with a tracer dye. This dye helps to visually confirm that the wood has been properly treated and that the preservative has penetrated the entire piece.
