Easy to Install and Maintain Outdoor Capped Composite Wood Decking

Composite Lumber Decking Product Details

Over the last few years, composite decking has grown in popularity. It's quickly becoming a "must-have" outdoor item for homes and businesses all over the world. Composite decking is a high-quality alternative to traditional wood decking that has the look of natural wood but requires less maintenance.

On the market today, there are two types of composite decking. The first generation of composite decking is also known as uncapped composite decking. The second generation of composite decking is capped composite decking. Both are made through an extrusion process that combines recycled plastic and wood fiber. Capped composite decking, on the other hand, is protected by a protective polymer shell.

Outdoor composite decking is an excellent choice for decking projects. Capped composite has many of the same characteristics as other premium composite decking materials: it is durable and extremely resistant to rot, chipping, and warping. However, capped composite decking is more popular among high-end deck manufacturers, and has a protective polymer shell. As a result, in addition to the many benefits common to composites, capped composite decking is more resistant to mold, water, and fading. This is why capped composite decking is a bit more expensive.

The core of COOWIN® capped composite decking is protected by a tough polymer shield that wraps around it 360 degrees. Wood fibers, PE polymers, and additives make up the core. COOWIN composite decking outperforms wood in terms of durability and safety. Any COOWIN® composite decking product can be used with confidence. We will build a high-quality outdoor deck for you that will outperform traditional wood construction.

Capped vs Uncapped Composite Deck Boards

Capped composite decking is an improved version of the first-generation product. Compared to the first generation of uncapped composite decking, it adds a polymer shell and a deep 3D embossed wood finish. The large, stiff molecules covering the soft porous core reduce water absorption and make the decking last longer than the first generation. In addition, it provides a cleaner, more aesthetically pleasing finish for composite products.

For the first few months, first-generation composite wood decking fades slightly, but the color remains consistent throughout. Capped composite decking is more resistant to fading and staining due to the protective polymer shell. Capped composite decking, on the other hand, provides excellent slip resistance. However, it has a lower slip resistance than uncapped composite decking. This is due to its polymer (plastic) protective shell being slightly more slippery, as you might expect. If you want composite decking with a lot of traction, uncovered composite decking is the way to go. More foot grip is provided by composite decking with 3D wood grain or grooves.

Capped composite decking has a polymer shell that adds durability, scratch resistance, and abrasion resistance. UV inhibitors are also present in the capping. As a result, it lasts considerably longer than first-generation composite lumber decking. Both capped and uncapped composite decking are eco-friendly and provide exceptional value for your home. If you're thinking about building an outdoor project to expand your living space. COOWIN can assist you further.

Advantages of Capped Composite Decking

You may be familiar with some of the benefits of composite decking trim boards. However, it may not be exhaustive, so let us now look at the benefits of composite decking.

1. Almost no maintenance is required. Unlike wood decks that require regular maintenance, composite decks only need to be cleaned regularly. This will save you a lot of maintenance time and maintenance costs. This is one of the biggest advantages of composite decking.
2. Easy to clean. For people who like to live outdoors, outdoor decks often drop food scraps, oil stains, etc. For wood decks, these spills can be difficult to clean up. But for composite decking, you only need to use a rag and soapy water to complete the cleaning job.
3. All-round protection. Capped composite decking has 360-degree complete protection all around the board including the tiny areas of curvature and groove area.
4. Waterproof. Water can cause mold and mildew on traditional wood decks, further leading to deck rot. And outdoor decks with mold and rot will bring safety risks to people. Composite decking will not have such problems.
5. Multiple colors and finishes. Most composite decking manufacturers offer a wide range of colors to choose from. Like COOWIN, you can even customize the surface and color of your deck specifically to your needs. This provides the foundation for achieving a unique outdoor deck design.
6. Can be walked barefoot. Outdoor composite decking will not chip or crack, while the use of hidden fasteners keeps the deck surface very secure.
7. No harmful chemicals. Composite materials do not need to use chemicals for waterproof, insect-proof, or anti-corrosion treatment. Therefore, composite materials are truly environmentally friendly and non-hazardous materials.
8. Long service life. The excellent performance of composite material guarantees its long service life. And longer service life means a higher use value.

How to clean composite deck boards?

Cleaning composite decking is simple; next, we'll go over how to clean your composite wood deck.
Before you start cleaning your composite deck, have the following items on hand.

• Dishwashing detergent in a standard bottle
• A nylon broom or brush of medium hardness
• A mop
• A bucket filled with warm water

After preparing the above items, we can follow four simple steps to clean the outdoor deck.

1. Clear the outdoor decking of all furniture and decorations. Make sure you can clean the composite wood decking completely. Then use a broom to sweep the deck clean of any loose dirt or leaves.
2. Rinse the floor with warm water after removing the debris from the deck surface. Then combine warm water and detergent in a mixing bowl. The consistency is similar to that of dishwashing liquid.
3. Scrub the entire decking with a mop and warm, soapy water, getting into the grooves and removing stubborn dirt and grime.
4. Rinse any remaining soap and dirt from the composite lumber decking with clean water after carefully scrubbing it. Allow the outdoor deck surface to dry before replacing furniture and decorations.

Important Tip

Before you start your outdoor deck project, COOWIN can help you. With our important tips and installation instructions, you can easily complete a high-quality outdoor project.

When planning your project, please calculate an extra 5% of material to avoid running out of material.

Make sure your deck's joists are no more than 30 cm apart, allowing for double joists in cases where butt joints are required.

Install the first composite deck with precision using the starting fasteners. After that, matching hidden fasteners are recommended for a quick and secure installation.

Allow enough space between neighboring composite deck joints to allow for deck expansion.

Use a straight board to guide the circular saw when trimming to the size of the deck edge. This will give the composite trim board a more defined edge.
