Adek aluminium decking features
High load capacity
Our 295mm boards have been rigorously tested and proven on real projects to span up to 1200mm. The results:
- Less sub-frame and reduced material costs
- A faster, more cost-effective installation
Low slip potential
Adek’s Qualicoat 1 powder coating is formulated to provide excellent contact between footwear or bare feet and the deck surface.
When tested in accordance with BS7976-2 Pendulum Slip Test, all Adek boards were classified as having low slip potential in both wet and dry conditions.
Concealed face fixings
Adek boards are face-fixed from above for rapid installation – there’s no need for cumbersome side clips. Once in place, a removeable channel cover hides the fixings for a seamless finish.
100% recycled aluminium
Adek aluminium decking is leading the way when it comes to sustainability. We’re proud to offer the first decking system available in the UK that is made from 100% recycled aluminium.
Using recycled aluminium requires approximately 5% of the energy needed for primary production. At the same time there is no loss of quality or performance in the recycled material.
