Build a kid to cure 2011 is seeing Pink this year

In 2002, three local cancer survivors initiated a fundraiser for research for kids’ cancers. Since then, Sorento Custom Homes, along with their trades and suppliers, have raised over a million dollars for Cancer Research as well as local kid’s cancer charities.
This year Sorento Custom Homes will be building a house in 30 days in the community of Westlake in Red Deer. Each home built by Sorento has raised on average $150,000. All the proceeds of this years build will go to the Ronald McDonald House Central Alberta. Pinkwood is very proud to have donated the Fire, Mold and Moisture resistant pink coating on the framing package supplied by Timber Wolf Truss.
PK Lumber is factory coated with PinkShield, uniting three unique properties:
MOLD RESISTANCE
Research has proven mold contamination in homes is associated with an increase in serious health issues ranging from allergy symptoms to severe respiratory system damages. The Pinkshield coating technology used on PK Lumber effectively prevents the growth of harmful molds making your home a healthier place to live.
MOISTURE RESISTANCE
PinkShield coating forms a moisture resistant barrier which prevents decay and ensures the structural integrity of PK Lumber throughout the life of your home.
FIRE RESISTANCE
PinkShield coating used on PK Lumber contains specialized fire retardants designed to reduce the risk of fire starting and to slow the burn if a fire does start.
