People are abandoning wood decking, says Fiberon
 The company claims that many are moving away from traditional decking because it’s too much hassle

 

Fiberon®, the world’s leading provider of wood-alternative decking solutions, believes that with a glorious summer expected that this year is a great year to replace your traditional wood decking with their composite alternative.

 

Composite is an environmentally friendly material made of recycled plastic and wood. It doesn’t split, spinter or rot and it has great slip resistance. The material looks like real wood and is provided by Fiberon with a 25 year warranty. But it’s the fact that Fiberon decking doesn’t ever require painting or staining, combined with a forecast scorching hot summer, that has led them to predict that 2014 will be one of the biggest years ever for composite materials in the UK.

 

“With one of the best summers in a long while predicted we’ve made a prediction of our own, that being that if the weather is as nice as expected that thousands more people in the UK will make the switch from wood to composite garden decking this year,” explained a Fiberon spokeswoman.

 

The relevance of the weather? Fiberon believes that the warmer it is the more likely that people will choose to get rid of their wooden decking as opposed to having to paint or stain it for the umpteenth time.

 

“There are many people out there who will paint or stain their wooden decking every summer but without question there are a great deal of people who are growing tired of bothering to do so, choosing instead to switch to the many beautiful composite alternatives out there. If the weather is nice this year we fully expect that many people will see it as the perfect opportunity to trade in their outdated and tiresome wood for our environmentally friendly, hassle-free alternative.”

 

Fiberon is one of the most popular suppliers of quality composite materials in the UK. They have a national and international network of distributors and are considered by many in the industry to be the leading composite creator.
