Build Once. Enjoy for Years: The Power of Color-Treated Lumber

In the world of outdoor projects, nothing beats the combination of durability and curb appeal. Whether you’re building a deck, pergola, or fence, you’re not just aiming for strength—you want it to look good, too. And with ProWood® Color-Treated lumber, you don’t have to choose between the two.

It’s more than pressure-treated wood—it’s pressure-treated and color-infused, delivering long-lasting protection with rich, fade-resistant tones that look great from the start. No waiting for the lumber to dry. No coming back to stain. Just build and move on.

Why Pros Are Choosing Color-Treated Lumber

Traditional treated lumber offers durability, but it usually needs a few weeks to dry before stain or paint can be applied—a timeline that can delay completion, add labor costs, and increase callbacks. Color-treated lumber skips all of that. ProWood Color-Treated lumber arrives with a deep, woodtone color already infused into the board, eliminating the need for staining while keeping your project on schedule.

Time-Saving: Skip the dry time, staining step, and second trip to the job site.
Instant Curb Appeal: Natural woodtone pigments deliver a stained look from day one.
Less Maintenance: Rich, consistent color lasts longer with fewer touchups.

The Technology Behind the Color

ProWood Color-Treated lumber is pressure-treated with a preservative system to ensure superior durability and infused with woodtone pigment to lock in color for long-term performance.

This results in lumber that resists both environmental wear and aesthetic fading, backed by ProWood’s limited lifetime warranty and a color assurance warranty:

5-Year No-Fade on Vertical Surfaces
2-Year No-Fade on Horizontal Surfaces

Where To Use It

ProWood Color-Treated lumber is made for the outdoor environment and built to handle the elements.

Decks, Railings, and Stairs

Fences, Pergolas, and More

Above Ground and Ground Contact Use

And while the color is built in, it’s also paintable and stainable if your design calls for a custom touch. It works with a wide range of fasteners, too, including galvanized, hot-dip zinc, and aluminum hardware.

Available Colors

Depending on your region, ProWood Color-Treated lumber comes in three rich tones:

Cedar-Tone
Redwood-Tone
Walnut-Tone

These aren’t just surface treatments—they’re deep, earthy colors that enhance the natural grain and give your project a professional, finished look from day one.
