What is the weight of composite decking?
How heavy is composite decking?
Composite decking is made of wood fiber and recycled plastic. It is more durable and different in weight than traditional wood decking. The type, size, and formula of the composite board will affect its weight. Not that the decking is heavier, the stronger it will be. We provide three different types of composite decking: Capped Composite Decking, Solid Composite Decking, and Hollow Composite Decking. They are with different structural designs to fully ensure their strength and durability. The following are the weights of Techwoodn’s conventional decking profiles:

Is composite decking heavier than wood?
Wood is a natural material. The type and moisture content of wood will affect its weight. Generally speaking, the composite decking will be heavier than wood, but its structure is more stable. If you need light composite decking, you can choose Hollow Composite Decking series products.
