A look at TERM-seal’s range of termite proofing solutions for pre-construction jobs.\u00a0<\/em>
\n<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

TERM-seal is an established manufacturer and distributor\u00a0of leading edge, science-based applied technology in the field of pest management. TERM-seal is\u00a0an Australian owned and family operated company, developing and manufacturing termite-proofing products for Australian conditions.<\/p>\n

The company provides asset protection at the pre-construction stage for homeowners and commercial property developers through a network of distributors and pest control companies nationwide.<\/p>\n

Termite proofing is mandatory in the building and construction industry under the Building Code of Australia and is carried out during the pre- construction stage of a project. Tasmania is exempt from the Code.<\/p>\n

\n

The range and versatility of TERM-seal\u2019s products have a distinct and significant advantage over rival offerings to prospective customers because they provide an integrated solution to accommodate every construction job. By comparison, all TERM-seal\u2019s competitors essentially offer one product to fit all applications.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"
TERM-seal Ura-Fen Active is a triple layer sheet barrier used to form a continuous waterproof and termite resistant barrier around the cavity perimeter and construction joints of new slab-on-ground structures<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This approach is restrictive and results in poorly adapted barriers that offer negligible efficacy. TERM-seal’s second aim is to provide products that are safe for the public and workers alike with no residue sensibility. In this latter regard TERM-seal is unrivalled where efficacy is concerned.<\/p>\n

The expertise and experience applied by TERM-seal’s own insect ecologist and industrial chemist over more than three decades is unmatched in Australia\u2019s commercial pest management arena, a fact clearly reflected in TERM-seal\u2019s superior product range. TERM-seal has an enviable and well-proven track record in the development and manufacturing processes of its cutting edge technologies since 1997.<\/p>\n

Phil Hannay<\/strong> and Dr Roger Franklin<\/strong> started working together on novel systems for termite-proofing new and existing structures in\u00a01997, eighteen months after the use\u00a0of organochlorine pesticides was banned in Australia. This pure and applied science was pursued when the regulations were changed to allow concrete pads or rafts to be laid as foundations for most residential dwellings and commercial buildings. Since then, concrete pads have been used routinely to form part of the barrier to prevent termite entry. The end result is a series of products that are ecologically sound and work well.<\/p>\n

The ultimate goal of this pure and applied research was to devise a proprietary product range that would provide cost-effective, easy to install alternatives to existing methods of termite protection. TERM-seal have achieved this objective, and the appropriate regulatory authorities have acknowledged their innovative, science-based, ground-breaking work.<\/p>\n
