Vulcan Smooth Decking

Vulcan Smooth Decking is created from thermally modified New Zealand plantation timber and then treated with an organic preservative system that includes a water repellent for superior durability.

The thermal modification process and semi-vertical grain orientation means Vulcan Smooth Decking has enhanced stability, reduced resin content and is a beautiful homogeneous brown colour.

To further the stability of the wood, it is graded with semi-vertical grain orientation and is treated with a low VOC organic preservative system (OPX) that includes a water repellent, resulting in superior durability.

Available in a smooth dressed uncoated surface, Vulcan Smooth Decking will suit the architecture of any home.
