WOODEN TERRACES

There is nothing as stylish, durable and pleasant as a wooden terrace. Through our supplier, Carpentier, we have a wide range of terrace boards on offer, in oak, HOTwood ash, HOTwood softwod, HOTwood bamboo, Kebony and Accoya.

DURABLE OAK DECKING

In the past, terraces were often made of expensive tropical hardwood. New in the field of wooden decking today are oak decking boards which are ecologically sound and affordable. Carpentier’s oak terrace boards are made of oak sourced from well-managed forests and equipped with a PEFC certificate (possibly FSC®). This is an added benefit as many tropical hardwoods from Brazil and Africa do not hold this certificate. Moreover, oak wood has only a small ecological footprint.

Our oak terrace boards belong to the durability class II with the oak decking boards initially dried out to reach a moisture content of ±18%. These raw decking boards are 33 mm thick and available in different widths to be planed to a tailored profile on request.

SPECIAL PROPERTIES OF OUR THERMAL CONIFEROUS DECKING BOARDS

Our HOTwood softwood decking boards with knots are planed smoothly on four sides. With their slightly curved top, they provide perfect drainage which allows the wooden decks to dry out quickly after rainfall, preventing the formation of moss and the associated slipperiness. The thermal coniferous deck boards have an attractive, warm colour that ages smoothly after a while. The dimensions of our pine decking are 26 mm thick by 118 mm wide.

THE MOST DURABLE BAMBOO DECK PLANKS

The massive HOTwood bamboo decking boards from Moso’s Bamboo X-treme® collection are manufactured from compressed, heat-treated bamboo strips. Only at Carpentier are they available in combination with the unique Grad fixing system, which guarantees easy installation, quick laying and a seamless finish.

The Bamboo X-treme® decking boards are the only bamboo decking boards on the market belonging to the durability class 1. Their extreme hardness and high stability are due to a unique patented process based on heat treatment without chemicals. The heat treatment at approx. 200°C also ensures that mould has no chance to take hold. Furthermore, our bamboo decking boards have a long lifespan, many ecological advantages and a natural look.

These thermally treated bamboo decking boards are pre-oiled and remain beautifully smooth. Their slightly curved profiles also ensure perfect drainage. All these advantages make these boards suitable for intensive use and the ideal solution for coastal projects where a lot of sand is present. Just like our other thermoformed decking boards, Bamboo X-treme® decking boards grey in a beautiful and even way.

DUURZAME EIKEN TERRASPLANKEN

Terrassen werden in het verleden vaak uitgevoerd in kostbaar tropisch hardhout. Nieuw op het gebied van houten terrassen zijn de eiken terrasplanken, ecologisch verantwoord én betaalbaar. De eikenhouten terrasplanken van Carpentier zijn vervaardigd uit eiken afkomstig uit goed beheerde bossen met een PEFC-certificaat (evt. FSC®). Veel tropische hardhoutsoorten uit bijvoorbeeld Brazilië en Afrika hebben dit niet. Bovendien heeft eikenhout een kleine ecologische voetafdruk. Onze eiken terrasplanken hebben een duurzaamheidsklasse II. We drogen de eikenhouten terrasplanken tot een evenwichtsvochtgehalte van ±18%. Deze ruwe vlonderplanken zijn 33 mm dik en verkrijgbaar in verschillende breedtes om op aanvraag naar een profiel op maat te schaven.

EXTREMELY DURABLE WOOD FOR DECKING

Accoya is a high-quality wood whose durability surpasses even the best tropical hardwoods. It is sourced from responsibly managed forests and manufactured through a non-toxic modification process called acetylation. This process creates a high dimensionally stable and rot-resistant wood that is ideal for decking. Accoya wood withstands all extreme weather conditions and remains free from shrinkage, swelling or warping throughout its life. No other wood species offers the same combination of durability and stability.

Sustainably produced Accoya has a low carbon footprint and actively contributes to a circular and bioeconomy. With Accoya, you are making a truly sustainable choice. Accoya decking requires little or no maintenance and is comfortable to walk on. Untreated, these decking boards from our QuickClip® range for terraces have a beautiful natural weathering.

 

ADVANTAGES OF OUR DECKING ACCESSORIES:

ADJUSTABLE DECKING SUPPORTS

Grad decking supports are very effective for the installation of raised or floating terraces with our QuickClip® decking boards. The great advantage is that, unlike with conventional decking supports, you need only one model of these universal decking supports to bridge height differences of 100 mm to 1 metre. In addition, you can seamlessly click the aluminium substructure of our HOTwood decking boards into them, thus creating a solid base for your wooden deck.
