PhibroWood's technology has been at the forefront of the last 2 generations of wood preservative
systems. Our SustainTM T and SustainTM CQ technologies are cutting-edge, micronized copper applications that grew
out of our long-standing work with sub-micron copper (such as our pioneering development in the mid-1990's of
sub-micron copper for use as a biocide in agriculture) and our exclusive license of Michigan Technological
University's ground-breaking patents. Our multi-patented CMC technology allows PhibroWood the ability to
produce PhibroWood-CQTM of the highest quality at industry leading rates and efficiencies.
PhibroWood's industry leading technology is not the only way we are able to deliver higher performing products
at lower cost. PhibroWood's manufacturing production is co-located on sites where our sister company, Phibro-Tech,
Inc., has access to inexpensive copper, available through its ability to recycle most forms of copper.
Phibro-Tech is one of only 3 companies in the United States with the permits to perform this type of
recycling, and none of the other preservative manufacturers has this ability. PhibroWood is committed
to passing along its copper cost advantage to its customers. PhibroWood is also the only wood preservative
manufacturer that produces its own Copper Carbonate. PhibroWood and Phibro-Tech, have been producing
Copper Carbonate for over 20 years and continue to do so in both Sumter, South Carolina and Santa Fe
Springs, California. This gives PhibroWood a competitive advantage that will also be passed to its customers.
