Outdoor Decking

Composite timber for decks, walls, screens and ceilings.

Composite timber deck around a rooftop pool

Flooring · Decking

Kent composite timber pairs a Kent Skin surface, an acrylic polymer cap with anti-UV additives, with a stable Kent Core. It looks, feels and sounds like real wood, but it will not crack, split, swell or rot, resists termites and water, and needs none of the upkeep of timber.
