Composite Decking
Why choose composite decking?
It is no secret that without proper maintenance, the effects of the seasons can often leave timber decking looking lifeless and dull. Due to its plastic element, composite decking is designed to retain its good looks, and provides a hassle-free option to those who don’t have the time or inclination to maintain real wood. In addition, an anti-slip, splinter-free finish ensures the boards are safe for young children and those with mobility difficulties.
What is composite decking made from?
Composite decking is a great material that moulds together plastic resin with real wood and real wood fibres. This combination allows for a superb looking product with a much increased life span than traditional wooden decking. As it is made from recycled materials, it is also good for the environment.
Is it slippery when wet?
Unlike traditional decking, composite decking does not become slippery when wet. Composite decking absorbs significantly less water than traditional materials and also limits the growth of fungi and mould which can make the surface slippery. This gives you a safe and secure platform to walk on, making it suitable for everybody including children and the elderly.
