Treated Pine Decking
Treated pine decking is cheap, sustainable, and flexible, however it is less durable and has a shorter life than hardwood decking.
If the decking requirement is for a material that is decay and termite resistant Treated Pine is proven to be the most economical option when it comes to decking. It is very versatile and can be painted or stained to match any colour scheme.
Whilst Pine is a plentiful, fast growing, sustainable, and inexpensive timber which grows almost anywhere- it is a softwood, so the raw timber is not durable and is prone to termites and rot.
Therefore- to make pine suitable for outdoor uses like decking – it requires a chemical treatment to overcome this shortfall. (Modern pine treatments are far safer than older methods)

In spite of the chemical treatments used in producing treated pine, it is one of the most environmentally friendly timbers you can choose:
- A fast growing softwood, most of the pine used in its production today comes from tree plantations rather than virgin forests. Some popular hardwood decking materials such as merbau, on the other hand, are harvested from existing stands in countries where few if any environmental controls are in place.
- Because the pine has been treated it will last as long as most hardwoods. Because the pine grows relatively fast, the tree that replaces the timber used to make your decking will be ready to harvest before your decking needs replacement.
