Sustainable DecoDeck™ timber-look decking

19 October 2010

DecoDeck™ is the aluminium decking system that looks and feels just like timber. DecoDeck is a sustainable alternative to timber decking products for many reasons. 

The obvious reason for the sustainability of DecoDeck™ is that it provides an alternative to logging trees. Timber decking needs to be replaced more frequently, and creates more wastage from off-cuts, thus increasing the impact on the earth’s resources. DecoDeck™ only creates about 5–10% wastage, which can easily be recycled.

Painting or staining timber decking releases harmful greenhouse gases, known as Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), into the atmosphere. DecoDeck™ never requires painting or staining, minimizing atmospheric emissions.

Approximately 60% of aluminium ever produced is still being used today because aluminium is easy to recycle, can be recycled many times and does not need much energy to do so.

Decorative Imaging Pty Ltd prioritizes sustainability in its product development and company practices. Decorative Imaging is a member of the Green Building Council of Australia, and is an HIA GreenSmart Professional company. Decorative Imaging uses the information provided by these organisations to constantly improve its operations to act in an eco-friendly manner.
