Comparing Composite and Advanced PVC Decking

Material Composition

• Composite Decking: Made from a mix of wood fibers and plastic, composite decking combines the natural appearance of wood with enhanced durability. It is resistant to rot, insects, and splintering.
• Advanced PVC Decking: Constructed entirely from synthetic materials, advanced PVC decking is highly resistant to moisture, mold, and mildew. It offers superior durability and requires even less maintenance than composite decking.

Appearance and Texture

• Composite Decking: Offers a more traditional wood-like appearance with natural grain patterns and color variations. The texture can range from smooth to hand-scraped, providing various aesthetic options.
• Advanced PVC Decking: Typically features a more consistent color and texture, with designs that replicate the look of exotic hardwoods. The low-gloss finish and realistic grain patterns enhance its visual appeal.

Durability and Maintenance

• Composite Decking: Highly durable and requires minimal maintenance. It can withstand heavy foot traffic and harsh weather conditions. Occasional cleaning with soap and water is sufficient to keep it looking new.
• Advanced PVC Decking: Even more durable than composite decking, advanced PVC decking is resistant to stains, scratches, and fading. It is virtually maintenance-free and can endure the most challenging environments.

Warranty and Durability

TimberTech stands behind the quality of its products with industry-leading warranties:

• Composite Decking: TimberTech Composite collections come with a 30-year limited warranty. This covers fading, staining, and structural integrity.
• Advanced PVC Decking: TimberTech Advanced PVC collections offer a 50-year limited warranty. This comprehensive warranty ensures protection against fading, staining, and structural damage.
