Nature and technology…. the ultimate teamBack in the early 80’s we began re-
search on alternatives for teak decks.
Many different options were investi-
gated, including all kinds of abrasive
pvc’s.
The focus of our investigation was
on durability, comfort, non-skid, easy
to clean, limited maintenance and
ease of installation compared to
teak.
From the very beginning, natural
cork was our first choice as a base
material. Research convinced us of
our decision.
Millions of natural cells generate advantages over any other materialCork is the given name to the
suberose parenchyma, or bark of
the cork oak tree of the beech
family. Cork is highly homogenous,
consisting almost entirely of
cellular membranes through which
no channels run. The cork tissue is
formed from dead cells. Each cork
cell consists of a minimal quantity
of solid materials and a maximum
of gaseous materials, essentially
atmospheric air but also containing
carbon dioxide. One cubic centime-
ter contains about 40 million cells.
Cork granules are excellent thermal
insulators and can reduce heat loss
by 36% or lower temps by 53%. The
use of cork in protective heat shields
of the space shuttle is one of the
most exciting cork applications.
TechnologyTo utilize all of the advantages and
properties of cork, a high-end hybrid
synthetic binder was developed.
Production facilities employ integra-
ted and continuous volume/weight
control, specialty tools, and high-
pressure machinery to create the
required density.
This approach generates uniform
quality during the entire produc-
tion process. The hybrid composite
is called ACMEC® and is one of our
registered trademarks.

It’s the natural durability and comfort that matters
MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR on any surfaceThe finished product has proven to
exceed our expectations in resisting
exposure to natural elements and
most chemicals. MARINEDECK
2000®EXTERIOR has stood the test of
time in extreme conditions.
Installation is possible on any flat
surface, in any marine environment,
whether it is steel, aluminium, wood
or glass/carbon fiber reinforced
materials.
Available in planks/strips/sheet and ready-to-install-sheetMARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR is available
in standard sized planks/strips of
1880 mm long by 36 mm, 50 mm,
75 mm and 125 mm wide (74” long
by 1 ½”, 2”, 3” and 5” wide).
Ready-to-install-sheet is available
with plank widths of 36, 50 and
75 mm (1 ½”, 2” and 3”), with glue
channels. Standard sizes as from 360
mm - 525 mm (14”-20 ½”) by 1880
mm or 940 mm (74” or 37”) long.
MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR prefabs To reduce labor and installation time,
we and a number of our world wide
AMS’s (Authorized MARINEDECK
2000® Specialists) also offer prefabri-
cated decks. The shape/sizes of these
prefabricated decks are provided
either by CAD drawing, from
polyester film, or cardboard
templates. Please see at page 7.
Easy installation
Installation of strips/planks substan-
tially reduces the overall installation
cost compared with traditional wood
decks. Installation of ready-to-install-
sheet reduces installation costs even
more.

Market applications • Motor yachts• Sportfi shing boats• Flybridge cruisers• Sports cruisers• Catamarans• Ribs
Over the years many yacht
owners have chosen a
MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR
installation based upon the
recommendations of friends or
the results from independent tests,
conducted by various marine
organizations and magazines around
the world. MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR
is invariably judged superior
because of its non skid and
insulation properties as well as the
low maintenance and durability.

Traditional boatsThe Netherlands has a long history
of seafaring and boating and it is
no surprise that a Dutch company
developed MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR.
The traditional appearance and
ease of maintenance have made
MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR the choice
of traditional boats and vintage
yachts, found from the Dutch canals
to the high seas. Because of the ease
of installation and all other important
advantages, MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR
is now very often chosen over
traditional teakwood.
Sailing boats, yachts and catamaransOwners of sailing yachts
often set high standards for
weight, non skid performance
and durability. Another
important factor is the
insulation properties of
MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR,
which provides extra
comfort when installed
on the seats as well
as decks.
Sailing yachts with a
MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR
installation have received
much praise at boat shows
and numerous awards for
design application.

Cruise ships, rivers cruisers and ferriesA few years ago the Department
of Marine Technology at the
University of Delft in the Netherlands
published an independent report
listing many of the advantages of
MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR. Since
that report was published many
naval architects and designers
worldwide have been attracted to
the use of MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR.
The extreme durability, attractive
appearance and easy maintenance
of this product have made it the
choice for the high traffic areas
aboard these vessels.
Mega YachtsThe extreme high level comfort of
the “soft touch” when walking or
laying on MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR
influenced many naval architects,
captains and owners to choose this
product. These properties are the
result of the natural characteristics
of the cork itself which is made up
of millions of cells. When exposed to
extreme high or low temperatures
MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR remains
comfortable. A natural high tech
combination provided by nature.

Saltwater resistanceMARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR has passed
all tests on saltwater resistance,
including extended periods in
continuously changing temperatures
and immersed in sea water with an
extremely high salt content.
UV resistanceMARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR has been
successfully tested in the field and in
laboratory environments exposed to
high UV radiation.
All weather resistance MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR is not
affected by temperatures from - 40°C
up to +45°C (-40°F up to +113°F).
This has been tested in waters from
the Antarctic to Australia and the
Caribbean to New England.
Prefabricated decksMARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR is also
available in prefabricated panels.
Specific information is available.
Strong and fl exibleDrop your hardware or put a chair
on it. MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR is
built to take it. Dents bounce back
after a short period of time.
Sound and temperature insulationMARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR is one of
the very best insulators available
and consequently reduces vibrations
and temperature tremendously. The
average sound and temperature
insulation is 15 times higher than
teakwood. Standard 9 mm (3/8”)
MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR has
the same insulation properties
as 13.5 cm (5 ½”) of teakwood.
Non skid propertiesMARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR has
excellent non-skid properties.
Recent tests by an independent
organization proved the non-skid
ability with a 60 kg (132 lb.) weight
at an angle of 40° in a dry environ-
ment and at an angle of 38° in a wet
environment, as one of the very best.
Personal or business logosMany yachts and cruise ships have
their own insignia or logo. Any design
can be made and incorporated into
the deck. Our NC router can read
most CAD programs and produces
a product to satisfy the most
demanding customer.
CleaningSimply wash MARINEDECK 2000®EXTERIOR
with fresh water and a mild house-
hold detergent.
