INNOWOOD looks and feels like real timber without its inherent shortcomings such as timber’s tendency to crack, warp, split or rot over time when used in outdoor. INNOWOOD is also low maintenance, lightweight, and resistant to termites, water and fire. INNOWOOD is also self-extinguishing if subjected to fire.

INNOWOOD is highly durable and is warranted against cracking, splitting, rotting, flaking or peeling, splinters, water and moisture. Please refer to our warranty document.

INNOWOOD is non toxic, splinter-proof, making it ideal for children and bare feet!

Metal roofing can add to the heat load of the cladding due to UV rays reflecting off the surface which may adversely affect the Innowood product under normal installation conditions. Therefore additional supports or shorter spans is required to counter this.

Please contact INNOWOOD to obtain the additional design consideration requirement for project specific.

While the initial cost to build a pine or hardwood deck may be lower, the value of an INNOWOOD deck truly comes into its own over the longer term, easy to install and low maintenance and significant cost and time savings.

INNOWOOD Boards do not move across the boards’ width but like all composite timber will expand and contract along the length of the material with temperature changes. This movement is controlled but following our installation manuals that have provisions to controlling these movements.

Premium Fibre Deck uses patented technology that incorporated fibre layers to significantly reduce overall movements in length.

INNOWOOD board is made predominantly from timber hardwood waste therefore colour will vary slightly according to the hardwood species used in its manufacture. It is therefore recommended that all the boards be sourced from the same production batch and if there are still variations within the batch, ensure that the material is mixed prior to installation.

Any natural product that is exposed to the elements and particularly UV exposure will change in colour over time. INNOWOOD board is like natural timber, fading overtime to off white/silver grey colour when used in outdoor applications.

Recoating according to our Recoating Procedure Guideline will also have the benefit of assisting in bringing back some colour but bear in mind that it is very difficult to achieve the same colour or surface finish that has already began to show signs of discolouration.

To maintain the finish and extend the life of your INNOWOOD boards, regular simple maintenance is recommended. A regular simple cleaning routine is important to keep your INNOWOOD boards looking their best. Simple remove surface dirt by sweeping or washing down the boards with water, do not use abrasive substances or pressure cleaners.

Recoating is only required when the INNOWOOD surface begins to show signs of discolouration and dullness. To recoat follow the Recoating Procedure Guideline.

INNOWOOD boards should be handled with care when loading and unloading (do no drop on the ground), stored undercover on a flat surface and supported at 450mm centres until ready to be installed.

INNOWOOD Composite Timber under AS1530.3 is self extinguishing with zero spread of flame or no support for further combustion.

Further to the above, INNOWOOD boards have been tested and achieve up to a Group 1 rating (ASNZS 3837 – Specification A2.4 of BCA) or up to BAL- 29 Rating (AS3959:2009 – Construction of Building in Bushfire Prone Areas, Appendix F). Upon request based on specific project requirements, INNOWOOD Boards can achieve these ratings with the option of high performance formulas that have been modified from the standard formulation, whilst still maintaining the natural look and feel of real timber.

The INNOWOOD material is made up of primarily recycled repurposed natural timber waste products and as a testament we have received a EPD accreditation for our products’ full lifecyle.
