Friday, September 1, 2017 - Florham Park, NJ Troy Corporation announced today that it has completed the acquisition of the North American wood protection business of RONA (Ruetgers Organics North America), including Impralit and Hydropearl technologies. Other Ruetgers units, geographies, and product lines were not included in the sale. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Impralit PBT, the latest fungicide technology for pressure treating, is now available exclusively from Troy in North America.

Additionally, Hydropearl 100 & 140 water repellants are now supplied by Troy, offering compatibility with PBT and many quaternary amines, as well as low cost-in-use. These new technologies in Troys wood protection portfolio have been developed specifically for high-quality, long-term protection, and offer pressure treaters excellent performance and value.

The expansion of Troys advanced portfolio strengthens the companys position in the pressure treated wood marketplace, says Troys Geoff Webb, Director, Wood Protection. Impralit and Troy technologies are at the forefront of innovation in pressure treated chemistry. Combined with Troys expert technical service and unique TMMA plant hygiene program, pressure treaters will benefit going forward.
