What We Offer

Three Treatment Services Under One Roof

Service 1

Kiln Drying

Precision drying to 12–15% MC

Our fully automated kiln delivers even moisture removal across every piece. Timber leaves our facility at 12–15% moisture content — dimensionally stable and ready for immediate use. Gampaha's furniture workshops and construction projects benefit from timber that won't warp, shrink, or swell after installation.

  • Target: 12–15% moisture content across all species
  • Suitable for construction, furniture, doors, windows, and export
  • Drying time: 3–12 days depending on species and thickness
  • Calibrated meters verify moisture at multiple points per batch
Service 2

Vacuum Pressure Impregnation (VPI)

Full-core Boron Borax protection

Surface sprays protect only the outer few millimetres. Our VPI process drives 5% Boron Borax deep into the wood core at 10 bar (145 PSI), providing long-lasting protection that survives cutting and machining. Gampaha's industrial zone and export processing businesses benefit from pest-free timber backed by a 10-year warranty.

  • 10 bar (145 PSI) pressure drives preservative to the wood core
  • Protects against termites, borers, and fungal decay
  • 10-year warranty against pest contamination
  • Safe, non-toxic — no heavy metals, arsenic, or solvents
Service 3

ISPM 15 Heat Treatment

We are IPPC registered with the National Plant Quarantine Service and issue the required IPPC mark per certified load. Gampaha's free trade zone and export-oriented businesses regularly use our ISPM 15 service to meet destination country phytosanitary requirements.

  • IPPC registered — compliant with international phytosanitary standards
  • Core heated to 56°C for a minimum of 30 minutes
  • Accepted in 180+ countries for international export
