A Closer Look at Millboard Decking

Millboard decking stands out as a unique, high-performance material that redefines outdoor living. Unlike traditional timber, Millboard offers the aesthetic appeal of natural wood without its inherent weaknesses. Let's take a closer look at its innovative construction and superior performance.

Built to Last

Tough and Resilient
At the heart of Millboard decking’s performance is the Lastane surface layer, designed to withstand the rigours of outdoor environments. This unique, layer is highly resistant to scratches, stains, and general wear, making it an ideal choice for damp and high-traffic areas.

Enduring Against the Elements
The dual-tone Lastane surface is hand-tinted with specialised pigments that enhance resistance to fading and sun damage. This ensures that your decking retains its vibrant colour and visual appeal for years to come.

Safety and Practicality

Slip-Resistant and Mould-Resistant
Unlike traditional timber, Millboard decking is wood-free and non-porous, which significantly reduces the risk of mould or algae growth and enhances slip resistance. This makes it a safer option, even in wet conditions, providing peace of mind for homeowners and businesses alike.

Lightweight Yet Strong
Millboard decking’s closed-cellular internal structure is engineered to be lightweight without compromising on strength. This innovative design makes installation easier while maintaining exceptional durability and load-bearing capacity.

Durability That Stands the Test of Time

Rot and Insect Resistant
Unlike traditional timber, Millboard decking will not split, rot, or attract insects. Its robust composition ensures longevity, making it an excellent investment for any outdoor space.

Structurally Stronger
The core of Millboard decking is a unique blend of recycled natural minerals, polymer resin and fibre reinforcement. This combination enhances strength, durability, and resilience against the elements.

Aesthetic Excellence

Natural Wood Appearance
Each length of Millboard decking is hand-moulded using carefully selected timber masters, resulting in a truly authentic wood-grain appearance. Unlike other composite decking materials, Millboard captures the organic beauty of natural wood while delivering superior performance.

The Technology Behind Millboard
Millboard’s polyurethane core provides structural strength and eliminates the risks of warping, rotting, or core material degradation. Reinforced with fibre for added stability, over a third of this advanced resin core is comprised of recycled materials, further supporting its environmental sustainability.

The Lastane surface adds an extra layer of protection, ensuring high slip resistance in all conditions. This makes Millboard decking a practical choice for various outdoor applications, from residential patios to commercial walkways.

Crafted to be Perfectly Imperfect

Each Millboard deck board is the result of an intricate craftsmanship process that ensures both visual perfection and structural excellence. Just like the carefully selected Oak timbers used to create the original moulds, every detail—including natural imperfections—is meticulously replicated in Millboard decking’s ultra-durable product.

From the application of the Lastane surface to the pouring of fibre-reinforced resin mineral, each step is carefully executed to achieve an authentic and naturally random timber appearance. This commitment to craftsmanship is why many of the processes, including hand colouring, are carried out manually.

By embracing traditional artisan methods, Millboard achieves a level of realism that sets it apart from other composite decking solutions. The result is a decking product that captures the warmth and character of natural wood while delivering unmatched durability and performance.

The Perfect Decking Solution
Millboard decking offers the best of both worlds—stunning aesthetics and superior resilience. With its unique blend of materials, advanced technology, and handcrafted finishing, Millboard is the ultimate choice for those who want the beauty of wood without its drawbacks.

From start to finish, every step of your decking’s journey is defined by Millboard’s unwavering commitment to quality and innovation. Experience the difference with Millboard—where beauty meets durability.
