About Decking
Decking is defined as a flat or profiled (anti-slip) timber surface designed as a structure to be deployed for outdoor use. Decking finds applications in the residential and non-residential sectors. Different types of woods are used for different applications. For instance, treated lumber (mainly softwood) is used for the substructure part of the deck. For the surface part of the deck, either hardwood or WPCs are preferred.
