DecoWood® vs Timber: 5 things you need to know

If you are unsure whether to choose between DecoWood® or real timber for your next project, here are just five reasons why you should give DecoWood® a go.

Durability

Long lasting aluminium is the material of choice where resistance to deterioration, corrosion, termite attack and rotting is required. When finished with Super Durable™ DecoWood® powder coat finish, the aluminium is provided with additional protection that is 50% more durable that standard powder coating used in Australia.

Sustainable

Did you knowthat aluminium is economically and infinitely recyclable? In fact, the International Aluminium Council states that approximately 75 per cent of all aluminium produced is still in use today. Utilising a timber-look aluminium product like DecoWood will also mean no logging and no release of toxic greenhouse gases (VOCs) from paints and stains.

Maintenance

The dreaded task of staining timber windows or decks is only known to those who have lived through it. Avoid the lifetime of ongoing maintenance and say goodbye to sanding, painting, staining, or oiling once and for all thanks to DecoWood’s low maintenance finish.

Quality

Made from the highest quality materials available, DecoWood® withstands harsh environmental conditions and fully complies with Australian and international standards for quality. DECO is the only Australian finisher to be an accredited Qualicoat applicator, which ensures our finishes meet the international specification for architectural powder coating.
