For commercial spaces such as cafés, restaurants, and bars, the outdoor seating area is a vital space that attracts customers and provides an extension of the indoor environment. A well-designed outdoor seating area not only enhances the establishment’s image but also increases customer comfort and satisfaction, potentially impacting the venue’s commercial success directly.

Choosing the ideal deck for your outdoor seating area is an important decision that affects not only the aesthetics but also the durability and maintenance of the space.

What is the Best Deck for an Outdoor Seating Area?

Composite decking emerges as one of the most popular and versatile options, offering several advantages over other materials such as wood or ceramic. In this section, we will explore the characteristics and benefits of composite decking as the ideal solution for your outdoor seating area.

What is Composite Decking?

Composite decking is a construction material primarily used for outdoor flooring. This material typically combines wood fibers with polymers (plastics) to offer the aesthetics of natural wood while providing greater durability and reduced maintenance.

Despite appearing similar, there are various types of composite decking, made with different formulations. These result in significantly different characteristics, durabilities, and prices.

Why Choose CDECK Composite Decking for Your Outdoor Seating Area?

CDECK decking, manufactured in Portugal and offering up to a 25-year warranty, is available in two ranges: CDECK Original and CDECK WUUDE. Both combine aesthetics, strength, and durability with ease of installation and maintenance, making them the ideal choice for anyone seeking high-quality, long-lasting decking for their café, restaurant, or bar’s outdoor seating area.

When of high quality, like CDECK decking, composite decking is considered an excellent option for outdoor seating areas, particularly due to the following factors:

  • Easy to Clean: Only requires regular cleaning with water and mild detergent to maintain its good appearance, which can be particularly convenient for outdoor seating areas in urban environments or those exposed to a lot of dirt.
  • Low Maintenance: One of the greatest advantages of CDECK decking is its minimal maintenance needs. Unlike natural wood, it does not require treatments with sealants or paints to maintain its appearance or resistance to the elements.
  • Durability and Longevity: CDECK is known for its resistance to decomposition, rotting, discoloration, and damage caused by insects. This durability means it can maintain its appearance and structural integrity for many years without the need for frequent maintenance or replacement.
  • Safety and Comfort: It is highly slip-resistant, even when wet, and the surface is extremely comfortable to the touch, making it ideal for walking barefoot. It allows water to drain beneath the deck, eliminating the possibility of large puddles.
  • Adaptable to Climate: It is resistant to damage caused by extreme weather variations, including rain, snow, heat, and UV exposure, making it an excellent choice for outdoor seating areas in a wide range of climates, from the coldest to the hottest and sunniest.
  • Aesthetic Appeal: Offers a wide range of colors, textures, and finishes that can mimic the appearance of natural wood. Standard boards are 2.3m long but can be custom-made (with lengths between 1.8 and 3m), allowing for greater aesthetic personalization to match various architectural styles.
  • Sustainability: For those concerned about environmental impact, CDECK composite decking is a more sustainable option, considering its durability, ease of maintenance, and recyclability.
