WPC decking needs far less maintenance than traditional wood decking options. The plastic content means that the boards are resistant to rot, damp and insects. It also never needs to be sealed, stained or painted, and the boards won’t warp or crack, unlike wood alternatives. On top of this, composite wood decking is slip resistant, has a longer lifespan and is, overall, a great alternative decking option. 

The two types of composite decking on the market are capped and uncapped boards. Capped composite decking has an exterior plastic coating which protects the boards against fading and staining. Uncapped composite decking does not have this extra protection, but still is easy to maintain in comparison to hardwood decking.

The versatile products can be used in a variety of locations both residential and commercial. Most common are for inside and outside communal areas, balconies, pool sides as well as many more practical uses.

Uncapped deck boards will lighten as they naturally weather over the first 2-3 months of outdoor exposure before stabilising. The board lightening is caused by rain washing out naturally occurring dark wood oils (called tannins) and natural lightening from UV exposure.

The colour change is most noticeable in the lighter colours of our Pioneer range: Oak, Silver Birch and Stone, where the contrast between the coloured tannins and initial board colour is larger. As the board weathers, the grains subtle contrast eventually derives almost entirely through how the different textures reflect light rather than a genuine colour differential.

For this reason, it is often preferable to lay lighter colours groove side up if you are using Hyperion Pioneer decking boards.

The Pioneer range is an uncapped hollow board range with a reversible design. You can choose to have a natural wood pattern or a grooved board for your deck. The Frontier range is a solid board that has an additional plastic capping to protect against staining and fading.

Hyperion Decking boards comes in 4m lengths (±5mm). Dependent on the size of your proposed decking area, this will determine which size length you should be using. Please feel free to consult the expert EnviroBuild advisers for more information and assistance.

Hyperion decking comes in a variety of colours. For the Pioneer range we have the natural browns: Oak and Walnut, then the modern greys: Granite, Stone and Silver Birch. Our Frontier range consists of Slate, Marble, Iroko and Teak finishes.

The Pioneer collection comes with a 15 year limited residential warranty and a commercial warranty of 10 years. As the Frontier range is capped it comes with a longer residential warranty of 25 years and a 15 year commercial warranty.

You can find the full warranty here.

The Pioneer and Frontier ranges do have a higher combustion temperature than timber which makes it less likely to catch fire. The boards have been tested and the Pioneer deck boards have a fire rating of Cfl – s1 and the Frontier deck boards have one of Dfl – s1 (ref: EN 13501-1). The fire resistance rating and other technical specifications can be found here.

In order to work out how much material you would require, we first ask you to take measurements of your proposed decking area including any steps and planters you wish to include.. You can then put these measurements into our easy to use online calculators, which will automatically work out how much decking you will require. Alternatively, you can call a member of our team on +44 (0) 208 088 4888 to help work out your project quantities.

Yes, it is. Hyperion WPC decking is made from 60% FSC® certified wood reclaimed from post-industrial manufacturing and 40% recycled High-Density Polyethylene, environmentally friendly bonding agent, additives and tint. Saving these materials from landfill, giving them value and recycling them into a long-life product provides a harmonious solution to sustainable living.

We ensure that the materials we supply are certified with; a high recycled content & recyclability level, long working life, plus where possible, the manufacturing process incorporates environmentally beneficial best practices. To go a step further, we donate 10% of our profits to sustainable causes to help become a carbon negative business. Read more about our environmental pledge here.
