BPC deckings

BPC deckings are free of splinters, resistant to water and generally resistant against insects, mould and cracking. They are the perfect choice for outdoor installation.

 

BPC requires no additional protective coating. No special tools are required for installation. It can be worked just like wood with a saw and power drill. The professional laying is made nearly invisible with our special installing clips made from stainless steel.

 

The positive characteristics of our BPC-Deckings can be ensured only in combination with the above mentioned components. The installation with other components can have an impact on durability of the terrace.

BPC must not be used for:

  • Damp areas with insufficient air circulation
  • Extreme changes in temperatures (e.g. Sauna booths)
  • Load-bearing structures
Care and maintenance of the BPC Planks
  • Place sliders of plastic or felt under all furniture, flower pots or shade stands to protect the surface against scratches and other damage.
  • Water spots occur on new decks in particular due to the evaporation of rainwater. This is a temporary phenomenon and generally disappears on its own after 1-2 months or with the help of water and some dish soap.
  • Mud, dirt and algae or moss can be removed with warm water and deck cleaner. Heavy dirt can be loosened with a plastic brush (you may also use a rotary disc sander with deck cleaning brush). Oils, greases and discolouring liquids should be removed quickly with dish soap.
  • Damage such as scratches or burn marks should be removed carefully as far as possible with steel wool, sanding paper or an abrasive fabric.

Hardwood deckings

HKS-hardwood deckings are well known for their excellent technical characteristics, very good durability classes and an attractive look, which guarantee an exclusive and vivid appearance.

 

Our woods are durable, functional and exotic. We have a very close cooperation with our manufacturers in Southeast Asia and South America, who ensure the sustainability of your products by having a responsible forest management. We guarantee that HKS-Garden products will come from reliable, well-known and sustainable manufacturers only.

 

The combination of a thorough product choice, careful planning and correct laying is the basis for the realisation of your garden dreams.
As a general rule: a terrace decking is no living room flooring. Hard wood deckings are a natural product with an enormous variety of natural characteristics.

Care and maintenance of the hardwood deckings

Hardwood deckings don’t need much maintenance and thanks to their hard surface they are very resistant to all kinds of environmental influences. Dirt can be easily removed with a hard brush and soapy water. For very obstinate stain (like rust for example) a brass brush or fine grinding paper can help. Please don’t use a high pressure cleaner as the surface might be damaged severely.

 

Please remove any dirt or leaves from the gaps between the deckings regularly. With that you can avoid fungal attack and humidity on your terrace.

 

Discolorations caused by ferric tannin can be removed with oxalic acid (please follow the special using instructions of the producer). After that the decking should be treated with a protective oil.
