In terms of longevity, Wilkinson says some of the new generation of composites are warrantied for 25 years. So far, he hasn’t had any clients go back to him, “But who knows?” he says. “The products haven’t been out that long here in Australia. But they are getting better all the time.”
While early-generation composites were susceptible to scratching and fading, manufacturing methodologies have changed and the new-generation composites use harder plastics, a lower wood-plastic ratio, and are ‘capped’ with an integrated protective plastic coating, all of which helps overcome these issues. The deck pictured here was built using capped Fiberon boards in Ipe with the dining zone picked out in Tudor.
