CALENDAR OF EVENTS The demand for lumber treated with Cliromate-salt formulations is increasing* due to the ability of these preservatives to provide a long, useful life for wooden structures. In addition to making lumber resistant to fixe, fungi and termites, these effective chromate compounds give the wood, clean, odorless, paintable surfaces. Mutual does not make these formulations, but is a leading manufacturer of the Chromium Chemicals called for in government and industry specifications for water-borne preservatives.
