Pools are true leisure and fun spaces. Whether in private residences, condominiums, hotels, resorts, water parks, schools, or universities, pools provide a refreshing and pleasant environment for all ages. They are the ideal place to relax and unwind after a busy day, exercise – swimming is an excellent way to do so – and socialise with friends and family. Pools are perfect gathering points for meetings, parties, and barbecues, creating unique opportunities for socialising and making unforgettable memories.

Choosing a high-quality deck for your pool is essential to ensure the safety, comfort, and durability of your outdoor space.

What is the Best Deck for Pools: Is Composite Decking a Good or Bad Option?

Composite decking emerges as one of the most popular and versatile options for pool decking, offering several advantages over other materials such as wood decking and ceramic decking.

Let’s explore the main factors that make composite decking a superior choice for your pool.

Why Choose Composite Decking for Your Pool?

A high-quality composite deck, such as CDECK, is considered an excellent option for outdoor flooring around pools because it offers:

  • Greater resistance to moisture, does not rot;
  • Low maintenance, does not require treatments with oils or other products;
  • A non-slip surface, even when wet;
  • A surface free of knots and splinters, providing more comfort for the feet;
  • High resistance to fungi, insects, termites, or other biological agents;
  • High resistance to climatic and atmospheric elements, including UV radiation, so it does not deteriorate;
  • A wide range of colours, textures, and finishes, which can mimic the appearance of natural wood;
  • High sustainability, considering its durability, ease of maintenance, and recyclability.

What are the advantages of CDECK for your pool?

CDECK is an innovative range of outdoor flooring, the result of several years of research and development of high-performance composite materials. Developed to withstand the most demanding climatic conditions, it is the ideal solution for all types of pools.

Manufactured in Portugal, with up to 25 years of warranty, CDECK is available in two ranges: CDECK Original and CDECK WUUDE. Both combine aesthetics, resistance, and durability with ease of installation and maintenance, making them the ideal choice for those seeking high-quality and long-lasting decking for their pool.

Main Advantages

  • Water Resistance: CDECK has high resistance to moisture and water, essential characteristics for pool decking where exposure to water is constant;
  • Safety and Comfort: It is an extremely non-slip flooring (Class C3), even when wet, an important consideration to prevent accidents in pool areas, making it safer for frequently wet floors;
  • Low Maintenance: Reduced maintenance is a significant benefit of composite decking, especially in pool areas exposed to chlorine and other chemicals, as well as dirt and debris;
  • Durability and Longevity: In addition to resisting decay and insects, CDECK composite decking does not crack or splinter easily, ensuring a long lifespan even in challenging conditions like those found in pool surrounds;
  • Aesthetics: It offers a wide range of colours, textures, and finishes that can mimic the appearance of natural wood. Standard boards are 2.3m long, but they can be custom-made (with lengths between 1.8 and 3m), allowing for greater aesthetic customisation 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;
  • Good Cost-Benefit Ratio: Despite a higher initial cost compared to other decks, the long-term cost-benefit justifies the initial investment, ensuring a beautiful and durable outdoor space.

When choosing a deck for the pool, it is advisable to select high-quality flooring that offers long-term warranties and has proven performance in various situations.
