Megawood barefoot floor boards is made of 75% wood fiber content mixed with 25% of high quality polymers binding agents and additives. An elaborate production process combines these components to form an extraordinary material. The material looks like wood, feels like wood, can be worked like wood but it is more noble, easier to care for and more durable than solid wood.
Megawood meets the high demands of the “Quality and Testing regulation for Polymer Materials” seal of quality. The entire natural Megawood components are obtained from local timber stocks which are sustainable managed and PEFC certified.
WHAT IS IT?
Complete system for decking construction, especially deck boards with different and unique surfaces, colors, widths and lengths; system includes joists, groove trims for completely closed surfaces, securing clamps & edge clams.
WHERE CAN IT BE USED?
Outdoor and indoor decking construction and decking surfaces, for private areas as well as public areas like restaurants, hotels, swimming pools, public walk ways and beaches.
Painting and oiling are no longer necessary for maintenance.
WHY IS IT GREEN?
- Recyclable – contains no PVC, 100% recyclable
- 75% PEFC-certified wood content; no toxic or hazardous content

- Relatively low energy use during production
ADVANTAGES?
- Low Maintenance – no painting, no oiling
- Durability – highly resistant to scratches and dents
- Colour safe – no discoloration by UV light
- Non-slip – roughened surface structure
- Barefoot friendly – no risk of injury caused by splinters

Megawood is manufactured is 3 different surfaces which respond to most architectural designs
In Architecture projects as well as for Landscape Architecture projects.
- Classic board – Grooved wide on one board side and on opposite side narrow grooved
- Premium board – planning smoothing on one board side and slightly hilly
- Wave board – Continues wave board and opened joint wave on other side

Technical value properties
The board deck products are Non-flammable material UV resistant& pH resistant, which provides Slip resistant surface value which is free of Deleterious ingredients & Blooming ingredients and eases the care for the board being the material .Maintenance free.
Board’s installation
The deck installation requires Megawood Sub construction beam or suitable wood Sub construction material.
The Sub construction module grid is according to type material 40 cm or 50 cm. built in parallel distances.
The boards are fixed to the sub construction with screwed fixing Megawood Clamps & Edge clamps with suitable type screws according to the chosen material for the sub construction.
Installation possible in the following versions:
- Open laying deck with visible expansion joints created through Megawood
clamp system. - Closed laying deck in which expansion joints created through Megawood
clamp system are closed by special India rubber groove strip.
This performed deck has a continues plane surface look
