OUR COmmITmenT TO THe envIROnmenTDLH’s activities should be carried out with respect for environmental, ethical
and social values as defined in “DLH’s Basic values” and DLH has drawn up
policies for these value areas. DLH’s Environmental Policy includes both the
external and internal environment.
The activities of DLH are based on the raw material “timber”. Therefore, we
have a commercial interest in ensuring that the forests are managed in such
a way that there will also be sufficient timber supplies for DLH’s activities in
future. Furthermore, we take seriously our social role in the preservation
of the forests of the world because the forests have a number of positive
environmental values, which we shall help to protect.
It is the long-term objective of DLH only to trade in timber and timber products
originating from forests that are managed in a sustainable manner. DLH also
has the medium and short-term targets of knowing the origin of all our timber,
and to become a global leader in certified tropical forest products.
The environmental policy will be implemented in co-operation with suppliers,
customers, authorities and other stakeholders. Co-operation with suppliers
and authorities, especially in countries where the environmental situation may
be problematic, takes high priority in order that we can contribute to forest
legislation being respected and support development.

iDeck® species
Wood is not a uniform material and each plank of wood
has its own character, dependent on the source and
growing conditions of the tree from which it came. although
planks may emanate from the same source, they can
show variation in grain and colour, sometimes on the
same plank. Therefore, samples and photographs shown
in our literature are unable to be representative of the
total amount of wood delivered, each plank will be unique.
Once the timbers are exposed to ultraviolet light however,
natural oxidation will occur and the differences in colour
and grain wil become more uniform.
much of the beauty of tropical timber lies in the variation in
colour – from the sunny yellow of Opepe and the warm red
hues of massaranduba, to the golden brown of Bangkirai
and the rich chocolate brown of Ipe. In order to retain the
richness of these colours, it is highly recommended that
the timbers be regularly treated with a good quality oil
preservative.
The guarantee for products within the iDeCK® range
to resist impact, decay and insect attack is dependent
on normal conditions of usage and is limited to the
replacement of defective parts with the same or, at least,
an equivalent product. Installation costs are not included.
For non-reversible boards we do not guarantee the quality
of the underside which could show defects such as nodes
and small cracks.
THe InSTaLLaTIOnStorage: store the iDeck® floor boards in their original packaging, preferably in a well ventilated,
roofed over space – avoid direct bright sunlight
Treating the boards prior to installation: thoroughly rinse the boards with water before installing in
order to avoid rainwater causing excessive tannin leakage
Tools: drill, screwdriver, crosscut saw, belt sander, tightening screws, heel iron, square, gluing
clamp, chalk line
ground base preparation: make sure the ground base is stable, solid and smooth – a slant of
approximately 1 cm/running metre will provide the correct water drainage – to prevent weeds from
growing, it is advisable to cover with a root cloth – tropical hardwood contains elements/tannic
acids (e.g. oak-wood) that increase the boards’ resistance – however, rain can also cause them to
wash out in the form of a brown liquid – for this reason you must avoid direct, unprotected contact
with plastered and/or other walls and floors – foil protection is recommended
The support construction: the support beams must be fixed into the ground base to ensure a
secure foundation – the support beams must be of the same kind of tropical hardwood as the
visible boards – attention: the support beams must be at least twice the thickness of the boards
(e.g. for boards of 21 x 145 mm, use support beams of at least 42 x 70 mm) – overall a width of
50 mm will suffice, but in places where two ends of the boards are to be joined together,
you will need a width of 70 mm – during alignment, ensure that the correct distance between beams
is maintained: the distance depends on the strength and width of the boards (see graph)
Placement on a concrete or tilted floor: the support beams must be fixed into the ground base
to ensure a secure foundation – we recommend placing the beams in such a way that they are
parallel to the direction of the drainage
Placement on a slanted ground base: it is advisable to use the adjustable synthetic support
elements (± 8m2), which also need to be fixed into the ground base
Placement on natural soil: when necessary, apply a stabilized and levelled sand or gravel layer
– place concrete tiles 50 cm apart to provide sufficient support and fixture for the support
beams – verify the height and slant, cover with a rootcloth and fix the support beams into the
concrete tiles
Freestanding terrace: consult your architect/contractor, who will be able to provide you with
the correct information, adapted to your requirements
To order m2: to install in a random sequence, allow 5 to 10 % more boards compared to the
surface area to be covered – to install under an angle of 45°, with corners or irregular joints,
allow 15 to 20 % more boards compared to the surface area to be covered
To solve the rare occurence of splinters, we advise, once the installation is finished, that
you douse the deck with water (or wait until after the first rainfall) and, once dry, sandpaper
the surface. This will assist in breaking the heads of any splinters which may occur. Natural
oxidation due to ultraviaolet light will cause the decking to grey (particularly around swimming
pools). We take no responsibility with regard to accidents regarding slipping.

evero can:
Improve the quality of life through the sound and thermal
insulation provided by the cladding.
Improve the aesthetics of the facade.
Improve the overall resistance of the facade to water
(like an umbrella).
general Precautions: Make sure that there is enough
ventilation possible behind the cladding, a minimum space
of 1 cm is needed. (Generally determined by the thickness
of bearers). The backbone must be naturally sustainable
wood (durability class 1). It must be anchored to the wall by
appropriate fasteners to enable the bearers to be mounted.
A distance between bearers must be 40 to 60 cm. They must not
impede the ventilation cladding. Minimum section of bearer is
usually 27 x 42 mm.
Install gauze on the top and bottom of your cladding to prevent
leaves, bird nests etc. from hindering the ventilation behind the
cladding. The Evero cladding can be put in a vertical, horizontal
or inclined direction. For a horizontal installation, please ensure
that the tongue is always pointing up,
and the groove down.
Remember that the lowest cladding board must be more
than 20 cm from the ground.
Include an expansion joint (+ / - 1mm) while installing the
cladding. They are fixed with stainless steel nails/screws
(+/- 26 nails/screws / m”).
Hidden installation only with boards < 125 mm, all wider boards
(>125mm) need to be fixed with two fasteners stainless
(steel nails/screws).
We can provide aluminium corners, in and outgoing,
as well as expansion profiles.
maintenance: Our cladding can remain unprotected,
it will oxidize naturally to a silver gray colour as a result
of ultraviolet sunrays and weather.

FITTIng InSTRUCTIOnS
Installing with visible screws: please pay attention
to the direction of the wood fibres and slight colour
variations prior to placement – place all boards in
the same direction
Space between boards: the boards will expand
and contract depending on changing seasonal
temperatures and the humidity in the air – before
commencing, it is recommended that the degree
of humidity in the boards should be checked –
bearing this in mind, installation of the boards
must comply with the following rules: the distance
between every individual board must be 5 to 10 mm
– this expansion joint provides room for the wood
to ‘breath’ (expand and shrink) according to the
weather, without causing damage to the decked
floor area – in the event that the decking area is
placed against a wall or another fixed element, you
need to provide a joint of at least 10 mm between
the boards and the wall and/or fixed element
Joining the board ends: each board end should
rest on a support beam and be screwed down by,
at least, 2 screws to limit movement of the wood
Predrilling: use a chalk line to get the correct
alignment and pre-drill the screw holes (e.g. if your
screw is 6 mm, predrill using a 5 mm drill) – the
distance between the screw hole and the board
end should be maximum 5-7 cm (and minimum 2
cm) in order to prevent any protuberance at the
ends – use exclusively stainless steel screws for
an impeccable and lasting result – use 2 screws
for every board with a length of at least twice the
board’s width
Screws: it is recommended to use inox screws,
and to insert them on a slow setting speed into
the wood – the screw’s head should be level with
the board’s surface, so that no screw heads are
left protruding
Finishing up: you can apply a 45° slant on the
board ends using a manual or electric plane or
a belt sander – you can also use a U-end profile
from our collection
Installing with iClip®: place the rounded finishing
profile on the bearers, and screw to the bearer –
screw a clip to every bearer (pre-drill the bearer
with 3.5 mm drill) – slide the plank onto the clip, a
rubber hammer and a piece of wood can be used to
assist this process – every butt must be secured
with a clip, where you have two butts on each side,
use a clip on each one – please use bearers of
42 x 70 mm installed flat in this process – continue
this until your decking area is finished – the last
piece can be a plank or the rounded finishing
profile – enjoy your decking for many years

To start your terrace you use the aluminium
F-profile, which you screw on to the bearer – slide
in an iDeck® by Twinson® board and screw an iClip®
on every beam to fasten the first plank – slide the
next plank onto the clip, a rubber hammer and a
piece of wood can be used to assist this process
– continue this until your terrace is finished. In the
area of butt joints ensure enough bearing surface
by using double beams bolted together – every
butt must be secured with a clip, where you have
2 butts, one each side, use a clip on each one,
3 mm/meter expansion gap has to be between the
joint butts and next to a fix structure – to finish
your terrace we advise you to use the aluminium
F-profile. If a dilatation of at least 3mm/m cannot
be guaranteed then you need to subdivide the
planks into different modules and/or use the alu F
profile. More info: www.twinson.net
Please read the instructions for standard iDeck®
first as these apply also to the installation with
the plugs.
Before you start please make sure that all the
boards are put down on you deck in the final
position. This way you can easily draw straight lines
to pre drill the boards. A special drill is provided in
the iFix plug box to pre drill the wholes for the
plugs. The size of this special drill is exactly the
same as the plugs. Once the wholes for the plugs
are made, you pre drill the board and bearer with
a drill of 4mm diameter, to be used with the screws
you find in the box. Now you can start to fix the
boards with the provided screws and screw bit.
Once the entire deck is done, you can put the plugs
in the predrilled holes. A drop of white wood glue
(D4) in every hole so the plug is glued to the board.
Any excess of glue needs to be removed
immediately with a clean cloth. Make sure that
the conical part of the plugs is the downside.
(a hammer may be used)
Once all the plugs are in place, you can if
needed use a belt sander to sand your deck
and plugs to obtain a superb result.
