Everdeck boards are manufactured in Tasmania from a combination of Australian recycled plastic and plantation pine timber residues such as wood shavings. Everdeck decking boards are currently available in a 137mm width and length of 5.4M, and in a range of six different colours.
“Our Everdeck boards contain at least 50% plantation pine timber residues which are sourced from our Bell Bay facility,” Timberlink’s Chief Sales and Marketing Officer Simon Angove said.
“These residues are combined with Australian recycled plastic to create a value-added product that is simple to install and easy to care for.”
The Everdeck wood composite products manufacturing facility was announced in 2021 and was supported by a $5.8m co-investment from the Australian and Tasmanian Governments’ Recycling Modernisation Fund (Plastics) Round 1 Grants Program (RMF).
It is a part of Timberlink’s Bell Bay, Tasmania, plantation pine timber manufacturing site, and is the first facility in Tasmania to manufacture wood composite products.
Everdeck decking boards, edge boards and concealed fasteners are now available in Tasmania with availability in other Australian states to follow.
To support the launch of these products, Timberlink has released a new website at www.everdeck.com.au which features an interactive deck planner tool which allows consumers to explore different layout options and colours for their deck, as
well as calculate an estimate of materials.
The deck planner is located at www.everdeck.com.au/deck-planner/
