Description
Add a modern twist to any domestic or commercial decking project with WPC Composite decking boards. These woodgrain decking boards have the look and feel of timber but with added benefits. More specifically, composite decking is anti-slip making it ideal for areas with pedestrians or gardens and it stays anti-slip in all conditions whether it’s wet, icy, oily or dry. Furthermore, it is very low maintenance and does not need painting, staining or treating, nor will it rot, warp, fade or mould over time. It will just need a clean once or twice a year to keep it clean and looking new.
The woodgrain hollow range of WPC composite decking boards are designed to meet needs of modern households or areas that require a strong, durable outdoor flooring material that is safe for children and pets. Alongside being ideal for households, it is also ideal for areas surrounding pools as people will not trip or slip on it when it gets wet. However, if you are wanting to place a hot tub on it or have a high pedestrian footfall, you may be better suited using our solid range of decking boards.
This long lasting, low maintenance product also comes in a range of other colours including Walnut and Slate Grey.
