ECO FRIENDLY DECKING
Cladco recycled plastic decking is manufactured from post-consumer plastics to create a more eco-friendly decking solution. The plastic is processed, pelletised and compounded to create this highly-durable recycled board. Creating boards entirely from used plastics helps to reduce the amount of plastics in landfill sites and allows for customers to purchase a board that doesn’t have a detrimental effect on their carbon footprint. You can also explore our eco-processes on our environmental policies page.
PERFECT FOR WET CONDITIONS
Being made from plastic in its entirety, these boards are completely resistant to water and will not decay or wear over time due to water. This makes them a safe choice for wet coastal areas and locations such as; marinas, wetlands, fishing platforms, gardens, public spaces and flood-prone sites. With wet and cold weather comes frost and ice. These boards are designed with a grooved finish to provide a frost-resistant and low-slip decking solution, making them ideal for high-traffic spaces.
FAQs
How are recycled plastic boards different from your composite boards?
While composite boards are made of a mixture of plastics and hardwood fibres, our recycled plastic decking boards are made entirely from post-consumer, recycled plastics.
The lack of wood within the recycled plastic decking, means that they are more resistant to water and UV discolouration, which can affect variations of composite boards if they are subjected to prolonged exposure to these elements. Both our Signature and Prodeck composite decking is perfect for garden projects, our recycled plastic decking is especially suitable for wet and coastal areas.
What recycled plastic is used in your boards?
The plastic used to create these decking boards comes directly from household and production waste, rather than crude oil or other primary raw materials. This approach means that no new plastic products are created and instead, consumer plastics are recycled to create a functional and environmentally-conscious decking board.
How long does recycled plastic decking last?
Our recycled plastic decking is built to last! Its resistance and overall durability means that the boards have the potential to last for decades. With a 20-year residential and commercial warranty, these boards are a long-lasting choice for both domestic and industrial applications.
Is recycled plastic decking slippery when wet?
The grooved surface finish of these boards make them safer underfoot and minimises the risk of slipping. Independently tested under the British Pendulum Test, the surface of the decking achieved values of 69-86 in dry conditions and 49-68 in wet conditions. This result confirms that the decking boards have low-slip properties in all weather scenarios, and even when the boards are installed on a slope up to 5°.
Does recycled plastic decking scratch easily?
These recycled plastic boards have a high scratch resistance due to the hardwearing nature of the plastic material. It is still recommended to take care when moving objects across the decking and is suggested to lift objects rather than drag them over the decking, where possible to reduce the risk of potentially scratching the boards.
What do you put under recycled plastic decking?
Using recycled plastic joists to create the substructure is recommended. This will not only provide a stable base for the boards, but will ensure a completely water-repellant structure. Water ingress will provide no risk to your decking and you will not have to worry about your substructure decaying beneath your decking boards. Traditional timber joists can also be used, but won’t be as long-lasting and may need to be replaced.
