• Saves cost of staining oil and labour time (you would need to do this regularly for a wooden deck).

2. No split or splinter

• Deck is safe for bare feet, so no need to worry about any cuts.

• Deck is inflatable friendly, meaning you can bring out the paddling pool without worrying about it being damaged.

• Your children will be safe from splinters.

3. High slip resistance

• Not dangerously slippery when wet, making it safe to step out after the snow or rain.

• Has been slip tested in the US, and has been planned to be done in the UK (BS7976-2 by Grip Potential UK).

4. Does not rot

• There are no toxic preservatives used at all in preventing rot, split or greying.

• Is naturally resistant to all species of wood eating insects like termites.

• Composite does not rot after being wet for long period of time, unlike timber.

5. Hidden Fasteners can be used

• An aesthetically pleasing look

• Strong grip

• Installation is made easy

6. Uses recycled materials• The materials used are engineered from recycled domestic

Maple wood by-product recovered from flooring and furniture combined with recycled plastic.

• The plastic consists of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) providing superior physical and mechanical properties.

• Fiberon diverts over 33,800 tons of used wood and plastics from landfills and incinerators each year. 98.5% of all material waste is recovered from the manufacturing process. Closed loop water cooling systems prevent excessive usage of water.
