NewTechWood Composite Decking
Low maintenance alternative to timber, tested by Australia
Natural timber is undeniably beautiful but requires constant and sometimes costly upkeep. If you need a low-maintenance decking solution with proven durability, NewTechWood composite decking is the perfect solution for you.
Every NewTechWood decking board combines a natural-timber look with exceptional durability. Capped on all four sides, including the groove edges, these durable boards are meticulously crafted to last for decades, even in the harsh Australian climate.
Not All Composites are Created Equal
With so many composite brands available, the choice becomes easy when you consider those that have proven their durability in the harsh Australian climate. NewTechWood sets the standard in the decking industry, delivering unmatched quality and performance.
There are different types of capped composite timber available, such as half-capped boards, where only the top is coated. Some options leave the indented groove uncoated, and in certain cases, the coating contains wood powder, which still leaves the boards vulnerable to the elements. This means the protection lasts only for a limited time, leaving your boards at risk of damage like cupping, cracking, splitting, swelling, mould, or termites. With NewTechWood, every board is fully capped, ensuring complete protection and offering unmatched durability and longevity.
Whether you’re a professional tradesperson or a proud homeowner, NewTechWood’s sleek composite timber range is designed to exceed your expectations.

TRICOYA
LOOKING TO THE FUTURE
All wood used in the Tricoya® production process is sourced from sustainable resources such as certified, reclaimed or recycled timber.
CREDENTIALS
Tricoya is EUTR compliant and is produced from fast-growing, well managed, legal sources.
With superior durability and stability Tricoya has a considerably longer lifespan than unmodified wood products which leads to lower maintenance frequency.

The Product
TRICOYA Sheet and Processing
The Product
Tricoya® can be cut, coated, sanded, glued, machined and fastened the same as any other high performing wood fiberboard – allowing users all the freedom associated with MDF. The Tricoya® difference is that this can now be done for the outside and with confidence.
| THICKNESS | STOCK SIZE | SPECIAL ORDER |
|---|---|---|
| 6mm | 1220×2440 | N/A |
| 9mm | 1220×2440 | 3050 |
| 12mm | 1220×2440 | 3050 |
| 15mm | 1220×2440 | 3050 |
| 18mm | 1220×2440 | 3050 |
Other sizes may be produced upon request and typically associated with a minimum order quantity. Custom thicknesses between 5mm, and 18mm, can be produced for quantities of at least one container.
PROCESSING Tricoya®
To ensure you get the best performance possible from Tricoya®, and the coatings and fixings you will use with Tricoya®, it is important that you adhere to the following guidelines;
Tricoya® may be cut and machined in the same way as other wood fibreboards with no change in machinability. Tricoya® is delivered with a 120 grit sanded finish. It may be sanded with finer papers to achieve smoother surfaces. Water and solvent based paint systems may be used to decorate Tricoya®. Tricoya® may be laminated with melamine papers, high pressure laminates, wood veneers, foils and other materials. Exterior adhesives such as epoxy, polyurethane, phenol-resorcinol resin and EPI may be used as long as they meet exterior use requirements.
If you are coating or painting on Tricoya® you must use a primer coat (first coat) that is extremely low or is free of calcium carbonate.
All faces, sides, edges and cuts must be totally sealed with this primer.
All edges must be machined eased to ensure edges are fully sealed.
Coatings and paints must contain an anti-fungal additive.
Any cuts made after coating or painting need to be sealed with the above primer.
All subsequent paint coats can contain calcium carbonate.
Any fasteners and fixings that are fixed into the Tricoya® panel need to be Stainless Steel 304.
Any fasteners and fixings that are in direct contact with the bare Tricoya® panel need to be Stainless Steel 304.
Any seashore application will require any fasteners and fixings to be Stainless Steel 316.
When Tricoya® is fully painted, coated or overlaid, coated hardware such as epoxy, lacquer, PU or powder coated can be used for applications in DRY locations (where moisture does not build up) or where the condensation exposure is low.
The Residual Acetic Acid in Tricoya® is less than Accoya® however, this does not mean you can use non corrosion proof metals directly with Tricoya®.
Other metals – Galvanised metals or zinc alloys are not corrosion-proof when used with Tricoya® or Accoya®. The surface of certain aluminium alloys, copper, lead and other metals may also oxidise. Experience to date on the use of solid brass has been positive, especially on brass that is factory clear coated to retain brightness. Chrome plated steel performed very well in testing but if the protective layer is damaged this product will be susceptible to local accelerated corrosion.
