Porcelain Decking

Composite products are clever innovations which make life easier in some way for the user. In essence, they consist of two or more materials with different properties which are combined to produce something with improved characteristics (i.e. something that’s lighter or more durable than its original counterparts). Porcelain is a type of composite ceramic material that is made from clay, feldspar, and kaolin. It’s fired at a higher temperature than general ceramics, making it harder and more dense. It also absorbs less water, so it’s perfect for outdoor areas and places with high moisture levels.

You only need to look at a Dura Deck Inspire plank to see how much it stands out versus the competition! With its stunning wood-look appearance and texture, and a realistic 1.8m length that’s significantly longer than anything else on the market, it’s the perfect timber replacement for high-rise and commercial landscaping environments and is ideal for remedial decking projects on buildings that are no longer compliant with high-rise fire safety regulations. With a safe A1 fire rating, Dura Deck Inspire planks are resilient, stylish and anti-slip in wet and dry environments.

Dura Deck Inspire porcelain planks have a durable finish which gives a long design life. We offer a 10 year structural warranty for your peace of mind. To qualify for your warranty, simply activate it on our website within 30 days of receiving your order.

Porcelain decking has an extremely hard wearing finish that’s perfect for high traffic areas. We think the plank surface is so impressive and comfortable underfoot that we liken it to the feel of shark skin. Although not abrasive, the planks are resistant to everyday scratches and scuffs and are frost and corrosion resistant thanks to their low water absorption.

Dura Deck Inspire is A1 fire rated, making it completely resistant to open flames and extreme highs in temperature. This results in our porcelain decking being the ideal solution for applications where fire safety is of a high priority, such as high-rise buildings and rooftops. We offer solutions for both open steel frame balconies and concrete balconies.

The extensively tested surface finish of Dura Deck Inspire provides great anti-slip performance, recording low slip potential results in both wet and dry conditions. We’ve tested each colour individually for your peace of mind.  As with any decking area, you must ensure that your finished deck has a fall to encourage water to run off. Simply consult our technical manual for more information.

Dura Deck Inspire has little-to-no water absorption. The porcelain decking planks are resistant to frost and ice, and able to withstand extreme fluctuations in temperatures with no risk of deformation.

Absolutely you can use a pressure washer to keep your porcelain decking looking clean and tidy. Make sure you avoid concentrating the spray nozzle for too long in any one area to avoid surface abrasion, and keep the nozzle an even distance from the decking for best results.

Porcelain decking is extremely resistant to staining and usually just needs a quick wash and brush down or a pressure wash using a mild alkaline detergent to keep it looking at its best, making sure to rinse well with fresh water after cleaning. For those occasional stubborn stains such as rust from your outdoor furniture, we recommend the use of a cleaning product called Deterdek from Fila Solutions, which contains high concentrations of surfactants.
