For style-conscious lovers of low maintenance living, Millboard decking from Forté Flooring creates beautiful outdoor spaces where people can relax and socialise, all year round.

When the sun is out, you simply want to enjoy it. So when it comes to a deck, you don’t want to be spending time on its upkeep when you could be relaxing on it with a cool drink by your side. The beauty of real wood can transform any outdoor space, but wood needs regular maintenance, becomes slippery when wet and quickly loses its original appeal; rotting, fading and absorbing stains. Millboard is completely different.

Inspired by the character of natural timber, Millboard has been created as an alternative that improves upon it. Moulded from carefully selected timbers and painstakingly hand-coloured for an incredibly natural appearance, Millboard composite decking is as beautiful as hardwood yet designed to outsmart it.

Millboard decking is made from a unique resin/stone material that retains the beautiful look and feel of wood, but without the maintenance needed to keep it that way. Each decking board is moulded from carefully selected timber samples that showcase the beauty of natural wood grain, then hand-tinted by craftsmen for a perfect real-wood look. The result is decking that is virtually indistinguishable from wood in appearance, but far superior in performance. It doesn’t rot or warp, and its UV stability resists fading. With no wood content, there’s nothing to encourage algal growth either.

Big and small, residential and commercial, Millboard is the perfect choice for every type of space. As well as the peace of mind of ultra-low maintenance flooring, its unique design also means that Millboard can be quicker and simpler to install than timber, with no pre-drilling or special tools needed – simply cut it like wood.

LOW MAINTENANCE Inspired by the character of natural timber, but designed to outsmart it.

To add to its easy-to-live-with qualities, each board has a surface layer which is both non-porous – so spills don’t leave stains – and highly slip-resistant, even in the wet. There’s no need to spend time applying expensive, often environmentally-unfriendly treatments to keep it looking beautiful, either. Just an occasional wipe over with standard household floor cleaners is all that’s needed.

While Millboard is predominantly seen as a decking product, people have used it in a vast range of ways. Landscapers and gardeners everywhere are discovering that Millboard decking’s versatility and durability makes it very suitable for planters, gates, eating areas, feature walls and even by the pool.

Additionally, Millboard can be used to create an all-weather outdoor seating area – perfect for entertaining and relaxing. As the product doesn’t splinter, you’ll have peace of mind that it will be safe for years to come.

What’s more, although its appearance is virtually indistinguishable from the real thing, you’ll never need to stain it, worry about warping or replace rotten timber, which means that you can really enjoy living life outside to the full.
