Timber decking is a very popular choice for creating walkways and decked areas in gardens. The main problem with timber decking is that it gets very slippery so can be dangerous when wet. A new type of non slip timber decking is now available that is much safer than traditional timber decking and requires less maintenance and cleaning. Non slip timber decking is much easier to walk on and doesn’t become slippery in wet weather. Moss and leaf residue form tress in your garden can form on timber decking and this also makes the decking slippery. On non slip timber decking this residue won’t make a difference and it will remain slip free.
Non slip timber decking is a unique type of decking that has been specially designed to eliminate the slippery nature of traditional timber decking. Anti slip decking is made from timber but it has a rubber inlay on the surface. It is this rubber inlay that creates a soft surface on the decking making in non slip and also safer if you have young children applying on it that are prone to falling over. If you fall over on non slip decking you are less likely to suffer from a serious injury due to the softer surface.
Anti slip decking has become a popular choice for use in playgrounds at nurseries and schools where children play outside on a regular basis. This gives the nursery or school more reassurance that children shouldn’t slip over if is wet outside and that they will be less likely to injure themselves badly if they do fall over.
Investing in non slip timber decking is well worth while as you will save money in the long term on maintenance and cleaning costs. Non slip timber decking creates the perfect year round outdoor space so you can enjoy being outdoors in all seasons without worrying about slipping. Anti slip decking is ideal for older people to have in their gardens or in care homes. Old people can be unsteady on their feet so could easily slip on timber decking. The anti slip decking will be easier for them to walk on and give them the confidence and freedom to spend more time outdoors.
Non slip timber decking has to be durable, hard wearing and resilient if it is to be considered useful. At rubadeck.co.uk we have the most fantastic assortment of affordable, high quality anti slip decking!
