While other composite decking products may utilize the I-Beam design to reduce product weight, only GeoDeck can claim both the weight reduction and superior mechanical performance that results from our patented formulation. www.GeoDeck.com
Our Results
Third-party testing confirms that GeoDeck is the best overall composite decking product in the market!
Superior Color Retention GeoDeck fades less than other similar composite decking colors. To the human eye, a delta E of 4-7 is usually quite subtle. Anything greater is much more noticeable. Due to GeoDeck’s unique brushed surface, GeoDeck looks like new longer. Our superior color retention is due, in part, to the fact that GeoDeck’s patented formula contains no wood fillers or sawdust.

The combination of our mechanical strength and I-beam construction means GeoDeck requires less substructure and can handle higher loads. • S4S and T&G boards are ICC rated for 16” on center (Classic 24’’ on center) • 2x8 commercial board is ICC rated for 30” on center • Boards can be used for many decking styles including diagonal, octagon and herringbone patterns using 16’’ on center www.GeoDeck.com

AVERAGE MOISTURE CONTENT
GeoDeck’s boards absorb less water, and therefore have a lower risk of internal decay.
GeoDeck’s higher span ratings indicate greater mechanical strength and stiffness.

GeoDeck’s minimal water absorption is also due, in part, to its higher density ratings. This is also what makes GeoDeck more resistant to denting.
