Tanalised is a term used in Europe for wood that has been treated to resist rot and insects. In the US it is known as CCA, after the metals used in treating the wood- Chrome, Copper, and Arsenic. This wood has been withdrawn from consumer contact applications- like handrails, surface deck boards, etc, due to concerns about arsenic leaching out of the wood. Wood treated with arsenic should NOT be burned due to health hazards, and safety measures should be taken to avoid breathing dust if sand, sawing or routing treated lumber.

No not really . Tanalised timer is pressure treated with a preservative to resist water ingress. However. it can be over coated with more water proofing agent if you feel that the weather conditions you have are that harsh. Points to remember: the tanalisation product can contain chemicals that are harmful to plant life near it and also to humans. Its a good practice to wear a face mask if sanding the wood, cutting or breaking up. You should never really burn this wood off as the chemicals can become air borne. If adding water resistant agents to tanalised wood (the wood should if high grade tanalisation last some 40 plus years) do not use water based proofer as this will only sit on the woods surface. Adding paints etc. are also an issue as these if water based will not sink into the wood surface, this is a common mistake when people use tanalised wood for decking and sheds etc - they paint it after and cannot understand that why the coating is peeling away sometime after
