Due to the excellent performance of the WPC(wood plastic composite) material itself and the very low cost or almost free in maintenance, the life cycle cost of Forestar product is considerably less than softwood. The price, to some degree, is not higher compared to softwood. Additionally, softwood decking is often warped, contains knots and is inconsistent in density, Forestar product is an ideal alternative product.

If it gets marked or damaged, then the scratch can be softened and blended back into the deck using either Danish or Tung Oil. Please see our                                                    for more details.

As with the majority of flooring products, Forestar product will lose some slip resistance when wet, but it still meets the minimum “low potential for slip” requirement as set by the HSE. In order to maintain adequate slip resistance, it is important to keep your boards clean and free from debris.

It is not recommended to use Forestar product in structural applications although it can be used, it’s a job best left to a structural engineer to design any load bearing structures.
