When choosing decking for your outdoor space, performance beneath the surface is just as important as how it looks on top. Thorboard Dual offers the best of both worlds: clean, contemporary aesthetics and innovative internal engineering that delivers serious structural advantages.
What sets Thorboard Dual apart from other composite decking options is its smart design, most notably, the rounded internal cavities that lie at the heart of each board. While many hollow composite boards rely on rectangular chambers, Thorboard Dual is designed differently and this subtle difference has a significant impact.
Unlike traditional hollow boards that use angular, rectangular hollows, Thorboard Dual is built with rounded internal profiles. This structural choice is not cosmetic, it’s a major reason why the board performs so well over time, especially under load or in high-use environments.
Greater Load Distribution
Rounded hollows distribute pressure more evenly across the board, reducing the risk of localised stress points or long-term deformation.
Improved Structural Strength
Circular shapes are naturally more stable under compressive forces, enabling the board to bear weight without sagging or flexing.
Minimised Weak Spots
Rectangular cavities create sharp corners where stress can build up and cracks may form. Rounded profiles eliminate those corners, providing smoother force distribution and greater long-term resilience.
Enhanced Impact Resistance
From dropped garden furniture to foot traffic, rounded cavities absorb and deflect impact energy more efficiently, keeping the board intact and looking its best.
Together, these advantages make Thorboard Dual not just a smart aesthetic choice, but a technically superior one too.
Of course, Thorboard Dual doesn’t stop at strength. It’s also packed with practical features to make your decking project easier and more rewarding:
Double-Sided Design – Two attractive finishes on one board let you choose your preferred style and refresh the look over time.
Low Maintenance – No need for painting or sealing, just a quick clean to maintain its appearance.
Slip-Resistant Texture – Offers grip and safety, even in wet conditions.
Eco-Conscious Manufacturing – Made from recycled materials for a lower environmental impact.
Easy Installation – Hidden fixings ensure a smooth, seamless surface with professional appeal.
Whether you’re transforming a domestic patio or specifying materials for a commercial outdoor area, Thorboard Dual is built to deliver, combining robust internal engineering with sophisticated surface finishes. Stronger, safer, smarter, this is decking evolved.
