HTR Bamboo Commercial Decking – Durable, Sustainable & Low-Maintenance

The Problem with Traditional Commercial Decking

Commercial terraces require materials that balance aesthetics, durability, and lifecycle costs. While tropical hardwoods (e.g., Ipe, Teak) and composites (WPC/PVC) are commonly used, they come with significant drawbacks:

🌳 Hardwood Issues: Deforestation concerns, 15–20 year replenishment cycles, and rising costs due to CITES restrictions.

🛢️ WPC/PVC Drawbacks: 72% plastic content, prone to fading/scratching, and non-recyclable.

A 2023 study found that 68% of hospitality businesses prioritize eco-certified materials for outdoor spaces – but struggle to find options that don’t sacrifice performance.


HTR Bamboo: The Commercial-Grade Solution

Engineered for high-traffic areas like rooftop bars, hotel pools, and restaurant terraces, HTR Bamboo decking combines sustainability with industrial strength:

1. Sustainability That Matters

  • Rapid Renewal: Bamboo regrows in 3–5 years (vs. 50+ years for oak).
  • Carbon Negative: Absorbs 30% more CO₂ than hardwood forests.
  • Certifications: FSC® Certified, LEED-compliant.

2. Built for Heavy Use

  • Density: 1.3x harder than oak (Janka rating: 1,800 lbf).
  • Weatherproof: Withstands -30°C to 50°C, UV-resistant coating prevents fading.
  • Safety: Non-slip R11 rating (tested to DIN 51130), ideal for wet areas.

3. Zero Hassle Maintenance

  • No Oiling/Staining: Pre-treated with anti-mold, anti-fungal coatings.
  • Cleaning: Simply hose down – 70% less labor vs. wood decking.
