Let’s explore why NeoTimber\u00ae composite materials make the perfect public space decking solution.<\/h2><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Whether you\u2019re a developer, designer or architect, the inclusion of public space decking surrounding your resort, retail outlet or municipal building in your design gives a focal point for people to naturally interact. Design a space which is both practical and beautiful. Practical, it enables access for all abilities; and beautiful, it maintains its good looks year-after-year. Composite decking<\/a> offers a durable, long-life solution which requires minimal maintenance<\/a>.<\/p>\nOur composite decking offers several features<\/a> which align it perfectly with demands of a public space. NeoTimber\u00ae offers slip-resistant decking<\/a>, ensuring the safety of the public and is also Class C fire-rated<\/a>, making it suitable for low-rise developments, balconies and roof terrace decking<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>![\"public](\"https:\/\/neotimber.com\/decking\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/01\/Public-Space-Decking-Hero.jpg\" "\\"Public")

You will incorporate handrails for stairs<\/a> and wide, ramped areas to ensure access for all.<\/p>\nComposite decking is designed to be slip-resistant<\/a> with extra grip provided by the deep, embossed woodgrain or grooved finish<\/a>. Thanks to the plastic element in composite, the texture is engineered with slip resistance in mind. Expansion gaps allow for natural drainage of rainwater, preventing standing water, reducing slippage and ensuring the safety of visitors.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/span>Low Maintenance<\/h2><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>A design concept can look flawless on a screen. But the wrong materials can degrade rapidly and quickly look unloved. Specify a low maintenance decking solution<\/a> in composite decking<\/a> and your decking installation<\/a> will maintain its good looks and so will your reputation.<\/p>\nComposite decking never needs painting, it never needs sealing or varnishing. Public space decking is your ideal decking solution. Made of a strong fusion of wood fibres and plastic polymers<\/a>, composite decking resists the effects of the elements protecting it against algae growth, warping, cracking and rotting.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>![\"public](\"https:\/\/neotimber.com\/decking\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/01\/Public-Space-Decking-Image-2.jpg\" "\\"Public")

NeoTimber\u2019s Class C fire rating<\/a> means that the material is suitable for use on low-rise developments.<\/p>\nThere are manufacturers who do not clarify this point, some decking suppliers make deliberately misleading statements on their website that their composite is suitable for high rise installation, it is not, no wood plastic composite is suitable for such application. These should be avoided at all costs.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/span>Extra Durability<\/h2><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>It cannot be escaped that timber decking looks fantastic, but we feel it is important to be aware of the long-term damage that can occur with the demands of heavy footfall. Heavy usage eventually results in breakages to the decking, such as splintered and snapped boards.<\/p>\n
One of the many benefits of using composite material is that it is far sturdier than the traditional timber option<\/a>. We have similarly supplied outdoor decking<\/a> to areas with increased footfall, such as primary schools<\/a> and residential care homes and the product continues to be the product of choice for many public spaces. Our 10-year commercial warranty<\/a> allows for a clear peace of mind that your public space decking will be long lasting.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>![\"public](\"https:\/\/neotimber.com\/decking\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/01\/Public-Space-Decking-Image-4.jpg\" "\\"Public")
