Pool Decking

Your pool is the attraction of your home where you create memories.
Come on, let’s face it, food, drinks, and water - that’s what creates memories. The atmosphere is not complete without the stage to hold this all together, and that is the pool deck that makes your pool stand out. dassoXTR Fused Bamboo pool decks tied this all together with natural, elegant, and beautiful.

 

 

Why Choose Fused Bamboo for Your Pool Deck?

While composite decking is among the popular choices for homeowners, dassoXTR bamboo decking offers a natural alternative that addresses common issues like heat retention. Unlike plastic-heavy decking materials with more than 55% of plastics and using wood saw dust as filler, this durable bamboo product is made of 87% natural fibers strand and 13% phenolic resin—the same material used in bowling balls.

 

Natural bamboo has a lower heating capacity than plastic composite decking, keeping your poolside surface more comfortable for bare feet even in the direct sun.

 

Being waterway-safe is crucial for obvious reasons for pool deck.  You want to swim in water that is not contaminated. 

dassoXTR do not use any preservatives nor toxic chemical like pressure treated wood in the making of Fused Bamboo.  Fused Bamboo is non-toxic and non-leaching, so you could enjoy your pool with peace of mind.

 

This pool decking material is non-leaching and resistant to decay, mold, and insects, ensuring pool safety and longevity in wet areas.

 

 

Great decking material not only provides the center stage for all your pool side events, but it also draws the attention of your neighbors. 

It increases the value of your property.  It looks like wood, feels like wood and it is better than wood.  It’s bamboo!

It is denser and harder than even the toughest wood decking like Ipe, with a Janka hardness rating of 3,820+.

 

 

 

Bamboo is the most sustainable resource that comes naturally. 

Bamboo is superfast growing, absorbs more CO2 than trees, and is carbon neutral.  Bamboo is green.  You can’t get any greener than green.

 

Very few decking materials offer extreme durability coupled with the beauty and elegance of natural bamboo and wood.

Why Fused Bamboo Outperforms Plastics Composite Materials?
When evaluating pool deck options, many homeowners compare dassoXTR to composite decking or traditional natural stone.

 


Fused Bamboo vs. Composite Decking
We all love wood but hate the forever work associated with maintaining it.  While composite decking is often chosen for low maintenance, it can become uncomfortably hot under the direct sun due to its high plastic content. dassoXTR, being a natural-fiber product, has a lower heating capacity, making it a safer and more comfortable material for bare feet in a poolside setting. Additionally, composite boards are prone to sagging or bowing over time, whereas the long fibers in bamboo provide exceptional structural stability.

Fused Bamboo vs. Exotic Hardwoods
Compared to wood decking like Ipe or Cumaru, dassoXTR offers more consistent quality. It lacks the knots and grain irregularities found in timber, ensuring every board is straight and uniform. Its dimensional stability is also significantly higher, shrinking only 0.02% in length, which prevents warping often seen in swimming pools environments.  dassoXTR is resistant to rot and require minimum maintenance.

 

 

We have two pre-oiled Fused Bamboo readily available for fast installation.

Color Options

Espresso: A rich, dark tone achieved by pre-priming Classic bamboo with WOCA Walnut oil.

Cognac: A lighter, golden-brown hue created by finishing Epic bamboo with a custom oil blend.

Profile Choices

The boards are reversible, giving you two distinct deck design looks in one product:

Smooth Face: Offers a clean, elegant aesthetic.

Reeded Face: Provides a textured look that can also enhance slip resistance in swimming pool splash zones.

 

However, dassoXTR is now available to fulfill your unlimited choice of colors. Both Classic and Epic Fused Bamboo are available in unfinished so you could finish them with your choice colors. This is a complete customization, other than customizing the color, you can also choose to DIY finishes yourself or have the installer to finish it for you on site.  And, if a superior quality factory finish is preferred, you can have it finish by one of our 3rd party refinishers.

Have it your way! You can finish your deck with any type of exterior coating.  Be it wood penetrating oil, hard wax, transparent polyurethane, shellac or emulsion paint.  Finish dassoXTR as if you are coating any other tropical hardwood. The only thing you have to do is to ensure the coatings are for exterior grade and that you have tested them to ensure you know their quality.

 

Design Ideas and Options

dassoXTR supplies wood penetrating oil in a variety of colors option and profiles to match any deck design:

  • Rich Tones: Choose from pre-finished colors like Espresso (dark hue) and Cognac (light brown) or select unfinished boards to apply your own custom stain.
  • Reversible Faces: Each decking board features a reversible profile with a smooth side for a sleek look or a reeded side for added texture and slip resistance.
  • Seamless Integration: The unique tongue and groove end-match system allows boards to click together, creating a "limitless" length that pairs beautifully with water features or natural stone accents.

 

 
Efficient Installation and Maintenance

Building a pool with decking can be time-consuming, but dassoXTR is designed to install up to 30% faster than traditional materials.


The Tongue & Groove System

Every board features a unique tongue-and-groove end-match system. This allows boards to be joined together between joists, rather than requiring every end to meet on a joist. This "limitless" length effect reduces waste and creates a seamless, high-end look around the pool.
