 EnviroBuild launches second-generation non-combustible decking -150 Aqua-Channel

EnviroBuild is preparing for the launch of their exciting product, 150 Aqua-Channel, which is set to revolutionise the decking industry.

As 150 Aqua-Channel is completely compliant with UK fire legislation, it can be used as a non-combustible solution for a range of projects.

After the Grenfell Tower tragedy in 2017, it became evident that cladding and decking required greater regulation and there was a market demand for non-combustible building materials.

EnviroBuild acted quickly to the changes in fire legislation and created a new line of innovative products that would lead the way for a new generation of safer, non-combustible balcony and terrace constructions.

Aside from its non-combustible properties, 150 Aqua-Channel is packed with other innovative features. The 150 Aqua-Channel decking system is composed of several parts which can be installed alongside built-in drainage for effortless upkeep. The system is designed to ensure all pieces fit together securely without the need for additional clips, making installation simple and straightforward.

Installation is further simplified by 150 Aqua-Channel as the boards have been designed in an asymmetrical shape which allows ripping the boards to be an effortless and straightforward experience. Within a 150 Aqua-Channel system, a maximum of one board will ever need to be ripped.

150 Aqua-Channel is a modern take on decking boards and is fitted with a flush insert that provides a smooth and continuous look when installed, creating an incredibly modern aesthetic. If a continuous look is not desired, a gap insert can be used to create a more traditional look of gapped individual boards. This ensures 150 Aqua-Channel caters to all preferences and can be used to create versatile designs.

On the upcoming launch of 150 Aqua-Channel, Dr Aidan Bell, Co-Founder of EnviroBuild, said: “We have recently released a wave of new products at EnviroBuild and couldn’t be more delighted with the reception we have had from our customers so far. We are excited to complete the launch of our highly-anticipated decking system, 150 Aqua-Channel and are looking forward to continuing to provide our loyal clients with the best non-combustible balcony and terrace systems.”

150 Aqua-Channel decking systems are complete with a powder coating which not only enhances the modern appearance of the decking but ensures the product is optimised for outdoor conditions by delivering a high level of non-slip resistance.

As part of the Hyperion aluminium range, 150 Aqua-Channel decking is Qualicoat certified. Qualicoat is the industry leading quality label scheme valid worldwide, whereby the manufacturing process has to meet particular standards which are inspected and tested by laboratories accredited to ISO 17025. At 70 microns, the coating on these boards is actually thicker than the Qualicoat Accreditation standard, ensuring the high level of durability and slip resistance required for long term outdoor use.
