Almagro Decking - non-slip, cool-to-the-touch planks for your terrace
Almagro Decking: the warmth of wood without its problems
Real wood on terraces and pool surrounds splinters, gets hot enough in the sun to burn bare feet, and turns slippery the moment it's wet, on top of needing yearly maintenance. This concrete decking evokes that same warmth but is non-slip, stays cool to the touch and withstands frost.
✅ Key advantages
Non-slip and cool to the touch: safe around pools and comfortable to walk on barefoot in direct sun.
Frost-resistant: keeps its look all year round with almost no maintenance.
No splinters: unlike wood decking, it won't lift or splinter with use.
Two combinable colors: Norway white and oak brown, for creating custom visual effects.
🏗️ Recommended applications
Terraces and porches at home.
Pool surrounds and decks.
Urban roof decks and terraces.
Garden paths and barefoot walkways.

💡 Professional tip: an 80 cm plank leaves very little room for misalignment: a millimeter off on the first row becomes a centimeter after ten planks, and it shows from the doorway. Run a string line for the first row and check it every three or four rows. And allow for 8% extra material for starting and finishing cuts.
