During the initial stages, mono-extrusion technique was used in the decking industry. Only one material was extruded under extreme heat. Gradually, the product started fading and scratching. Co-extrusion technology was introduced to overcome these issues and ensure superior product quality.

Co-Extrusion decking is becoming more and more popular due to its enhanced performance and natural appearance. It is a type of composite decking product which is not harmful and extremely safe to use. The texture of a co-extruded surface offers resistance to slippery and fungal attack. Co-extrusion products come with a lot of colour variants to choose from.

Co-extrusion process:

Two or more type of materials are mixed and passed through a single die. They are extruded under high temperature and the end result is a single product. This product comprises of properties of all three ingredients (timber, plastic, and polymer) to deliver a durable product.

To make them look new, just a water wash with soap is enough. That’s the only maintenance activity which you should do once in a year. Titanium dioxide is also added to make it weather resistant. They can sustain harsh climatic conditions without any deterioration.

Protective Layer:

Decking surfaces are prone to damages due to foreign elements. The core of the product is made of recycled PE and timber. The main reason for combining 3 materials is to provide a protective layer for the decking surface. The shell polymer helps the deck resist scratches, splinters, fading, staining, and insect infestation. The outer layer is referred to as “cap”. That’s why; Co-extrusion decking is also called as “Capped composite decking”.
