The Lastane® finish is highly resistant to scratches and stains from food and drink spills.
Millboard boards are extremely versatile and can be used to create not only beautiful decks, but also balconies, roof gardens, boardwalks, planters, bridges, pontoons, seats, steps, and much more.
Millboard may be scored with a carbon-topped multi purpose mitre or chop saw. Matching colour coating for exposed ends is available in 500ml tins. As the shaped end of the board disappears when cut, these can be placed in less prominent areas against an edging profile or walls.
Following considerable trials, we approve and supply self-drilling ‘Durafix’ stainless steel screws. There is no need to drill beforehand or countersink the boards and the inimitable Lastane® material will self-heal leaving no unidentifiable marks for a clean finish.
Joist spacing of 400mm is recommended for small-scale commercial and regular residential use. On heavy commercial balconies, bridges, jetties, entrances, and stairs use 300mm spacing. If you need to cut the Millboard down lengthwise the joist centres will need to be adjusted accordingly; at least 3 joists are required for any chopped boards. All decking boards are reinforced for additional strength. For laying 45° to the joist, we recommend max 300mm centres & 240mm for commercial use.
We recommend that our purpose-made edging is fitted at steps and supported by fascia boards to complement the aesthetic and performance of your deck. Fascia deck boards and edging come in rigid as standard, however, flexible boards and edges are also available and can be curved to follow a maximum convex diameter of 3 metres.

Millboard products are manufactured with a non-porous material, therefore resisting algae development and stains. There is no need to use any kind of harsh cleaners, solvents, waxes, chemicals, lubricants or other household cleaners on boards and no need to pressure wash as dirt does not get deep-seated. As the surface texture is non-porous, any dirt and grime may be simply washed off with soapy water and brushed with a soft bristle broom as you would for an indoor area.
Yes, according to AS4586:2013 slip resistance assessments Millboard is an industry leader, scoring highly in P5 anti-slip ratings even in wet conditions.
