hope to help you choose an appropiate wood specie and a decking
profile for your decking construction. Decking specs and its
characteristics depend greatly on the wood specie and its
technical characteristics.
Below we included a list of wood species we provide and their
technical specifications. Some of the decking profiles we offer
are also shown below.
