NewTechWood’s composite decking is a modern, environmentally friendly alternative to natural wood. It’s stylish, low maintenance and long-lasting, allowing you to enjoy your outdoors entertaining area for years to come.
NewTechWood decking is available in the two options shown below: Terrace Range and Coastal Range.
The solid NewTechWood deck board Terrace range is suited to both residential and commercial installations.
It is a 138mm wide board supplied in 4.88 metre lengths, which is great for new decks or renovations replacing existing timber decks with joist spans of up to 450mm.
This material is secret fixed using the NewTechWood Cobra Clip system.
Barwon Timber keeps the IPE and Silver Grey colours in stock, however other colours can be ordered.

NewTechWood’s Coastal range is a 210mm wide board of composite timber which is weather-resistant and stain-resistant.
With its deep texture look, it’s ideal for a Hamptons-style project. This material is secret fixed using the Newtechwood Cobra Clip system.
The Coastal range can be ordered by job lot to a customer’s requirements.

NewTechWood, like all wood plastic composite products, will expand in the hotter ambient temperatures and contract in the cooler months. NewTechWood profiles will expand around 1.1mm per metre from 15°C to high ambients. NewTechWood’s hidden fix systems allow for this natural expansion and contraction to occur, without affecting board creep or the design of the deck.
When installed properly (and taking into account the ambient temperature at the time of installation and leaving a sufficient but not excessive gap), the spacings between the boards should always be negligible.
In the short term, yes. Initially, you pay more for composite decking, however, consider the cost of material, time, labour costs and maintenance on traditional timber decks each year and it’s clear that composite decks provide a cost-effective solution long term.
NewTechWood composite decking requires no oiling, sanding or painting. However, no product is totally maintenance-free.
Normal sweeping and cleaning is still necessary to clean off debris and dirt and to keep your deck looking its best. NewTechWood’s fully capped colour technology coats the boards with a high stain and fade-resistant layer. This also makes the boards waterproof, so there is no need for any labour that would be necessary with regular timber.
