Boral Decking is manufactured from Australian hardwood
species that have proven durability in Australian conditions.
Boral decking has a Quality Assurance system that ensures
strict tolerances and drying procedures to produce a high
quality product.
Boral Timber decking is AFS Chain of Custody certified
providing peace of mind that Boral’s decking is sourced from
sustainably managed and legal forestry.
The same timber species can be used for internal flooring and
outdoor decking, to provide a seamless transition from inside to
outside, expanding living areas or to create an outdoor room.
Blackbutt and Spotted Gum have a natural fire resistance.
Their fire retarding properties make them suitable for use in
many bushfire prone areas under Australian Standard AS3959.
Australian hardwoods can easily be finished with a clear
decking oil or stain. Alternatively the timber can be left to
weather to turn an attractive silver grey. After timber has
weathered it can be restored to its original colour by resanding
and coating.
Building codes and Australian Standards should be adhered
to when building with Boral Decking.
Available in cover widths 64 x 19mm, 86 x 19mm and
130 x 20mm. For a structural product Boral commercial
decking is available in 135 x 32mm.
Available in Standard and Better grade. This is a mix of
Boral Timber’s Classic and Australiana grades providing a
combination of low level and moderate level feature boards.
Available in a broad range of Australian species.
