MGP 10 & 12 – Untreated, LOSP H2, T2 & LOSP H3

Machine Graded Pine (MGP) is a form of timber that has been machine graded into stress grades. The timber is fed continuously through a machine that calculates the timber stiffness by measuring the load required to bend the timber. The piece of timber is then branded with the appropriate stress grade. MGP is a more accurate method of assessing the structural capacity of the timber in comparison to F-Grading, which is used to grade Treated and Untreated Pines.
MGP in its untreated form should only be used for internal application where the timber is not exposed to the weather or the possible attack of insects and other timber destroying organisms. In these situations MGP can be treated to T2, H2 & H3 LOSP to provide the appropriate protection for each hazard level.
