Do not expose the finished decking to hard, heavy, or sharp objects, knocks, or blows.
Never drive a vehicle on the decking.
4. Description
Maintenance-free composite decking without knots consists of 58% wood, 32% HDPE, and 10% additives in the form of UV protection and reinforcement.
Supplement with edge boards of composite material, end caps, start clips, metal clips, and plastic clips, all specially adapted for this decking.
5. Planning notes
The sub-construction may be laid on even cement surfaces or cement panels on a bed of chipped stones. The thickness of the cement panel must be at least 6 cm.
For patios and balconies with tarmac surfaces, the surfaces may not be damaged during installation.
Place floor boards in areas with moderate sunlight and balanced, moderate temperatures to avoid mold formation and floor board distortion.
Allow at least 2 cm of space on all sides of all walls, balcony railings, and other permanently installed objects.
Excessive static loads (high terrace) must not be applied to the material. – Ensure adequate water drainage (at least a 2-3% slope) and ventilation. Do not lay on surfaces that store water.
Avoid moisture accumulation. Drainage may need to be laid; avoid contact with the earth.
Do not fill cavities; this ensures ventilation underneath.
Observe the minimum distances for the expansion joints.
WPC floor boards may bleach with sunlight by up to 10%.
In strong sunlight, WPC floor boards may heat up.
It is recommended to use the corrugated side of the boards as the top. The smooth side may become slippery thanks to moss.
6. Preparation
Before installation, remove any product stickers. Any discoloration will disappear after a short time.
Prior to laying, create a laying plan to reduce waste produced by cutting.
The boards may display deviations in color. Mix the boards before laying.
Pre-cut the boards to the appropriate size and chamfer the edges.
During installation, the outdoor temperature should be 10–30 degrees Celsius.
