European Redwood – Pine Red deal is our material of choice for external applications where pressure treatment is required. The pine we supply is slow grown, and from Nordic regions and of good quality, it is important to specify this. The minimum service life of our decking if well installed and specified above ground is 15years. We also supply Siberian Larch decking that is naturally durable and does not need any preservative treatment above ground.
