100% Green, 100% Recyclable, Made with 55% Renewable Resources

Made from a hybrid blend of 45% recycled plastic and 55% rice hulls (a renewable resource), Bestdeckmarine is a better and more environmentally-friendly alternative for marine applications where contact with water is continuous.

Rice Hulls - Yes; Wood Fiber - No

Rice hulls are nature’s protection for the rice grain. In nature and as part of Bestdeckmarine boards, rice hulls are highly resistant to moisture-propagated mold/fungal growth and the constant wet then dry marine conditions that are the primary causes of deterioration of wood and products made with wood fiber. Rice hulls are also a class A insulating material that is difficult to burn and avoided by rodents and insects. Because it contains rice hulls, recycled plastic and no chemicals common in treated lumber, Bestdeckmarine is 100% recyclable.

Extended Life Decking with Minimal Maintenance Needs

Bestdeckmarine’s unique blend of recycled plastic and rice hulls delivers a decking product with a life span far exceeding its 20 year warranty against rot, checking, splintering, splitting or structural damage from termites, insect and fungal decay. UV stabilizers ensure the lasting color of the decking, allowing normal weathering (15% fade) without affecting the structural integrity or safety of a Bestdeckmarine surface. And you’ll never have to paint, stain or seal Bestdeckmarine panels...ever. Normal maintenance is a periodic power wash.

Looks and Feels Like Wood, With Superior Strength

Bestdeckmarine panels are made with individual 2x6 boards precisely cut, spaced and assembled into lightweight (4 lbs/sqft) flat-back panels. An embossed wood grain finish looks and feels like real wood that delivers a splinter-free surface with 3 times the anti-skid characteristic of wood; but none of the real wood or wood fiber blend maintenance issues.

The Coretech I-beam construction provides superior strength to span up to 36”. Bestdeckmarine panels installed on 24” stringer spacing permits live loads in excess of 150 lbs per square foot.

Panelized for Easy Installation and Lower Installation Cost

Our pre-panelized product will make decking installation easy and cut the labor time by up to 10x over single board products. You could even install Bestdeckmarine flat back panels directly over existing and save the cost of removal and disposal of old decking materials.

Bestdeckmarine is available in raw boards in 12’, 16’ and 20’ lengths.
