Deck technik shield

Deck technik shield is an outdoor plank belonging to the category better known as WPC (Wood Polymer Composite) of the latest generation. It’s an industrial drawn product, composed of high density polyethylene (HDPE), wood dust and additives. A protective layer of polymer on all faces makes the flooring resistant to the atmospheric agents and discolouration. Moreover, it guarantees a high stability and durability of the product, and at the same time it doesn’t need an ordinary maintenance as the wood does. The protective layer in co-extruded polymer protects the surface from stains, mould and chromatic decay, therefore the colour of the flooring will remain unaffected.
