Our composite decking is manufactured using the lastest manufacturing processes to assure that the beauty of your deck will last for generations.
Our products features realistic grain patterns, finishes, and colour mixing.
Advantages of Composite Decking
Ecotech Timbers composite deck boards, in contrast to standard wooden deck boards, feature a core and a cap that are both constructed out of high-performance recycled materials and unique technology with the purpose of providing protection. Because of this, they are impervious to the effects of dampness, as well as wearing and fading; this makes them the ideal choice for an outdoor haven.
Traditional Wood Decking
These are made of pressure-treated wood that has been aged. The designed capping that comes with Ecotech Timbers composite decking is in a league of its own, and even “protective” pressure treatment used on traditional wood decking can’t compete with it.
Ecotech Timber Composite Decking
Our capped composite deck boards include 100% designed tops that not only protect the boards from moisture and the weather, but also protect the beauty of the boards.
Because of its many advantages, Ecotech Timber composite decking is an excellent option for those who want to enjoy the benefits of a low-maintenance deck that will keep its vibrant colour for many years to come.
#1 – Minimal Maintenance
Spend more time outside while reducing the amount of overall maintenance you need to do.
The low level of care that is required for composite decking is among the most attractive advantages of composite decking . Traditional wooden decks require considerable maintenance once every one to three years and will need to be replaced once every ten to fifteen years; this is a procedure that is both labour involved and expensive. In order to preserve their colour, wooden decks need to be power-washed and stained on a regular basis.
In contrast, Ecotech Timbers composite boards are simple to maintain, which will save you both time and effort as well as money in the long run. Sanding, staining, or sealing a Ecotech Timbers deck is never required in order to keep the rich colour it was originally manufactured with or to preserve it from the elements.
#2 – Life span
Wood has traditionally been the go to option for decking, however, owing to the cutting-edge technology that we employ, the composite deck boards produced by Ecotech Timbers are designed to outperform both wood counter parts and its rivals, thus being one of the essential advantages of composite decking.
#3 – Mold
Mold, mildew, and moisture invasion will not be a problem because of protective capping and a special material mix that resists moisture. This ensures that mould and mildew will not be able to develop on the surface of the material, great advantages of composite decking
#4 – Aging, wear and tear
Because of this, capped composite and capped polymer composite deck boards won’t warp, split, or fracture like traditional wood decks. This is a significant advantage of composite decking in comparison to wood, as wood decks are prone to these issues.
#5 – Shrinkage/Swelling
Our composite decking will not shrink or swell, unlike traditional wood decking, which is very susceptible to changing weather conditions especilly here in South Africa. Thus being one of the important advantages of composite decking.
#6 – Slip Resistant
There is absolutely no enjoyment to be had in sliding around on a deck. It is helpful to have a composite deck that does not feel like slick shiny plastic underfoot if you live in an area that experiences a lot of rain, whether you have a pool that causes water to end up on your deck in the summer, or if it rains often where you live, or if you are constantly dealing with ice and snow. It is a great luxury to not have to worry about the well-being of one’s children and other loved ones when they are enjoying themselves on the deck. Thus being one of the most important advantages of composite decking.
#7 – Fading
Traditional wood can sustain significant damage after being exposed to the elements for only half a year. After being subjected to the elements, these samples (cedar, treated pine, and mahogany) have developed a hue that is noticeably different from their initial appearance .
Decks made of traditional wood, including decks made of pressure-treated wood, will eventually yellow, crack, cup, or splinter as time passes. Even the highest-quality hardwoods, such as ipe, will show obvious signs of wear and tear when exposed to the weather.
#8 – Safety
The composite decking boards sold and installed by by Ecotech Timbers do not have any exposed installation hardware, which results in a smooth and streamlined end product. There is no risk of screws coming loose and protruding above the board, which eliminates a possible source of significant injury for paws, feet, and toes of all sizes.
#9 – Eco-friendly Composite Decking
For the sake of the well-being of our ecosystem, we have to make it a top priority to keep plastic out of landfills as well as the oceans and seas of the world. However, the plastic must be disposed of in some manner.
In addition, it has a wide range of applications that are friendly to the environment. Although recycling plastic is an important step in reducing one’s impact on the environment and the globe as a whole, this is just the beginning of the process.
In the standard recycling process, plastic can only be processed farther down the recycling chain. To put it another way, a plastic water bottle cannot be reused to make another plastic water bottle. The last use for recycled plastic is almost always to be fashioned into plastic bags, and this process generally involves water bottles.
That was until the advent of our composite decking, which established a fresh function for plastic in the context of eco-friendly living at home. Our composite decking is made by fusing together plastic and wood in a certain way.
Because the wood that is used in the manufacturing process comes from only ecologically responsible sources, composite decking is an excellent choice for homeowners who are concerned about the environment.
Capture All of the Natural Beauty of Real Wood While Eliminating Its Downsides
Ecotech Timbers composite decking is an innovation that goes beyond the plastic-like seeming deck material offered by rival manufacturers. Its design has realistic grain patterns, true colour mixing, and colours that are inspired by the natural world.
Colors Taken From the Natural World
Because each of our deck lines draws its inspiration from the natural world, you can be certain that the colours your engineered deck displays are an accurate representation of those seen in the great outdoors.
Benefit from High-Performance and Long-Lasting Decking
Wooden decks have a high upkeep cost that can have a marked impact finacilly. Due to exposure to UV rays, moisture, and other elements that contribute to weathering, the initial lustre of wood boards can begin to lose its sheen in as little as six months.
In contrast, the aesthetic appeal of decks constructed using our composite decking boards is intended to be preserved far beyond the time of their installation.
Every range of Ecotech Timbers decking is designed to preserve its colour, resist erosion, and continue to look fantastic and function exceptionally well for many mnay years to come.
