| New DeckoraWood Vinyl Surface from ICA Global An innovative new product DeckoraWood Vinyl Surface from ICA Global LLC offers a new alternative for replacing aging or unsightly decks that is fast and simple to install, and offers homeowners the prospect of a no-maintenance surface that faithfully mimics the rich beauty of natural wood. The new product opens a number of opportunities to dealers and contractors who want to offer their customers an appealing, cost-effective solution to a common problem. It can be used to cover virtually any solid outdoor surface with new engineered PVC planks that replicate the look of natural wood, right down to varied graining and shading. Yet the surface never needs painting, staining or sealing, and will never warp, split, peel or crack. DeckoraWood Vinyl Surface is designed to cover composites, wood, tile and concrete surfaces. Since it is only 5/8-inch thick, it allows for proper clearance for swinging doors, making most installations simple and trouble-free. The unique tongue and groove design allows the flooring to be glued or fastened with screws, depending on the subsurface. In either case, there are no visible fasteners that can pop up and cause a safety hazard. Unlike typical PVC or composite deck boards, DeckoraWood Vinyl Surface is offered in a choice of three natural wood grain colors – redwood, cedar or grey pine – in addition to white. The richly grained colors faithfully replicate the intricate variations of real wood, providing a natural wood appearance. Each 5½-inch wide plank features a middle 'V' groove that enhances the natural wood look and character. The engineered PVC surface resists scratches, mold, mildew and stains, and is guaranteed to keep its natural wood grain characteristics. It resists fading, even in areas exposed to the sun’s ultraviolet radiation, and is resistant to oils, salt water and insects. DeckoraWood Vinyl Flooring is backed by a fully transferable limited lifetime warranty. The deep wood grain also provides an extremely slip resistant surface, making DeckoraWood ideal for use in basements and other interior applications, as well as around pools and docks where moisture is a factor, added Hamel. DeckoraWood Vinyl Surface planks are available in 12-, 16- and 20-foot lengths, which can easily be cut to specific sizes. Matching trim and moldings are also available. All materials can be cut with a regular finishing saw blade, and no special tools are required for installation. DeckoraWood Vinyl Surface is sold through ForeverWood distributors throughout North America. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Construction News :: home page |
