Anti UV Capped Composite Decking

Easy to Install and Maintain Anti UV Capped Composite Decking

Capped Composite Decking Product Details

Over the last few years, composite decking has grown in popularity. It's quickly becoming a "must-have" outdoor item for homes and businesses all over the world. Composite decking is a high-quality alternative to traditional wood decking that has the look of natural wood but requires less maintenance.

On the market today, there are two types of composite decking. The first generation of composite decking is also known as uncapped composite decking. The second generation of composite decking is capped composite decking. Both are made through an extrusion process that combines recycled plastic and wood fiber. Capped composite decking, on the other hand, is protected by a protective polymer shell.

For decking projects, outdoor composite decking is a great option. Capped composite decking shares many of the same qualities as other premium composite decking materials, such as durability and resistance to rot, chipping, and warping. However, capped composite decking, which has a protective polymer shell, is more popular among high-end deck manufacturers. As a result, capped composite decking is more resistant to mold, water, and fading, in addition to the many benefits common to composites. Therefore capped composite decking is more expensive.

COOWIN® capped composite decking features a rugged polymer shield that covers the core 360 degrees. The core is made of wood fibers, PE polymers, and additives.COOWIN composite decking is more durable and safer than wood. You can use any composite decking product from COOWIN® with confidence. We will provide you with a high-quality outdoor deck that is far superior to traditional wood construction.

Outdoor Composite Decking Specification

Capped vs Uncapped Composite Deck Boards

The first-generation product has been improved with capped composite decking. It adds a polymer shell and a deep 3D embossed wood finish to the first generation of uncapped composite decking. The large, stiff molecules that cover the soft porous core reduce water absorption and extend the life of the decking compared to the first generation. Furthermore, it gives composite products a cleaner, more aesthetically pleasing finish.

First-generation composite wood decking fades slightly for the first few months, then the color remains consistent throughout. Thanks to the protection of the polymer shell, capped composite decking has better resistance to fading and staining. But in terms of slip resistance, on the other hand, capped composite decking still offers high slip resistance. But it is a little less slip-resistant than uncapped composite decking. As you can guess, this is due to its polymer (plastic) protective shell being slightly more slippery. If you are looking for composite decking with high slip resistance, then uncovered composite decking is for you. Composite decking with 3D wood grain or grooves provides more foot grip.

Capped composite decking has a polymer shell that adds durability, scratch resistance, and abrasion resistance. UV inhibitors are also present in the capping. As a result, it lasts considerably longer than first-generation composite lumber decking. Both capped and uncapped composite decking are eco-friendly and provide exceptional value for your home. If you're thinking about building an outdoor project to expand your living space. COOWIN can assist you further.

Advantages of Capped Composite Decking

You may be familiar with some of the benefits of composite decking trim boards. However, it may not be exhaustive, so let us now look at the benefits of composite decking.

1. No maintenance. Unlike wood decks, which must be maintained on a regular basis, composite decks merely need to be cleaned on a regular basis. This will save you a lot of maintenance time and money. This is one of the most significant benefits of composite decking.
2. Easy to clean. Outdoor decks frequently drop food leftovers, oil stains, and other debris for folks who choose to live outside. These spills might be tough to clean up on wood decks. Cleaning composite decking, on the other hand, requires only a rag and soapy water.
3. All-round protection. Capped composite decking has 360-degree complete protection all around the board including the tiny areas of curvature and groove area.
4. Waterproof. Water can cause mold and mildew on traditional wood decks, further leading to deck rot. And outdoor decks with mold and rot will bring safety risks to people. Composite decking will not have such problems.
5. Multiple colors and finishes. Most composite decking manufacturers offer a wide range of colors to choose from. Like COOWIN, you can even customize the surface and color of your deck specifically to your needs. This provides the foundation for achieving a unique outdoor deck design.
6. There is no need to paint or stain. Composite ornamental panels have a high resistance to fading. As a result, you won't have to paint the solid composite deck every few years.
7. No harmful chemicals. Composite materials do not need to use chemicals for waterproof, insect-proof, or anti-corrosion treatment. Therefore, composite materials are truly environmentally friendly and non-hazardous materials.
8. Long service life. The excellent performance of composite material guarantees its long service life. And longer service life means a higher use value.

How to clean composite deck boards?

Cleaning composite decking is simple; next, we'll go over how to clean your composite wood deck.
Have the following items on hand before you begin cleaning your composite deck.

• A standard bottle of dishwashing detergent
• A medium hardness nylon broom or brush
• A mop
• A bucket of warm water

After preparing the above items, we can follow four simple steps to clean the outdoor deck.

1. Remove all furniture and decorations from the outdoor decking. Make sure you can thoroughly clean the entire composite wood decking. Then sweep the deck with a broom to remove all loose dirt and leaves.
2. Rinse the floor with warm water after removing the debris from the deck surface. Then combine warm water and detergent in a mixing bowl. The consistency is similar to that of dishwashing liquid.
3. Scrub the entire decking with a mop and warm, soapy water, getting into the grooves and removing stubborn dirt and grime.
4. After carefully scrubbing the composite lumber decking, rinse off any remaining soap and residual dirt with clean water. Allow the outdoor deck surface to dry and move furniture and decorations back into place.

Important Tip

Before you start your outdoor deck project, COOWIN can help you. With our important tips and installation instructions, you can easily complete a high-quality outdoor project.

When planning your project, please calculate an extra 5% of material to avoid running out of material.

Make sure the joists supporting your deck are no more than 30 cm apart, allowing for double joists where butt joints may be required.

Use the starting fasteners to accurately install the first composite deck. After that, it is recommended to use matching hidden fasteners for quick and safe installation.

Make sure to leave proper clearance at adjacent composite deck joints to allow for deck expansion.

When trimming to the size of the deck edge, use a straight board to guide the circular saw. This will allow for a more defined edge of the composite trim board.
