Intense, striking colours:
A fine layer of polyethylene covering the entire board efficiently protects the composite wood against water and any moisture being picking-up. Expansions recorded are very low, with only 1 mm per linear meter when exposed to a 30° variation temperature.
Co-extruded layer
A fine layer of polyethylene covering the entire board efficiently protects the composite wood against water and any moisture being picking-up. Expansions recorded are very low, with only 1.07 mm per linear meter when exposed to a 30° variation temperature.The board is completely rain-proof, with rain flowing off without letting water penetrate the protected composite wood. UV-resistant additives are also added to this fine protective layer to avoid any fading over time.
This over-layer is applied at the same time as the extrusion to obtain a fusion of materials and perfect adherence over time.
No fading and no stains
In addition to their resistance to UV for 20 years, co-extruded MANHATTAN boards require very little maintenance. All common stains such as grease, wine or ketchup can be cleaned easily using soapy water.However, washing your decking at least once a year to remove moss and lichen with a high-pressure washer (120 bar maximum) is recommended tougher stains may be washed with mild solvents without risk of fading.
