April 2020 – American Lumber Standard Committee (ALSC) Flow Thru ISPM-15 HT Ratification
• Formal flow thru testing and data collection was done with Timber Products Inspection (TPI) in April 2019. Key result was that oven temperatures were consistent throughout the treatment cycle.
• Formal testing to run different species and product thicknesses was performed with the ALSC and TPI to confirm treatment times and adherence to ISPM-15.
• All testing results concluded that running the HT Sanitizer Continuous Heat Treat System in flow thru mode was effective for ISPM-15 HT solution. The HT Sanitizer Continuous Heat Treat System and process to do so was certified by TPI and approved by the ALSC Board members.
