Bamboo Decking

dassoXTR Bamboo Outdoor Decking is the superior choice for exterior decking applications and has been used worldwide in many commercial and residential projects.

dassoXTR Fused Bamboo Decking comes in standard size 1x6 deck plank. Rounded 3mm on 4 sides and beveled on ends. Every plank is 6 feet long with tongue and groove end-matched on each end and the plank is reversible. You could opt to use smooth surface or the reeded surface as top. Because the decking planks are end-match with tongue and groove, you are able to join those planks to form as long a deck as possible just like interior wood flooring. Most importantly, the joins do not need to fall on the joist. The deck planks come in 2 different profile called G2 Deck Plank (xxx-DK20-G2-PP) and G1 Starter/Ending Plank (xxx-DK20-G1-PP).

The G2 Deck Plank has 2 grooves, one on each of the long side on the plank meant for attaching fastener. The gaps between rows differ base on fastener. Most top down installed fastener will leave a gap wider than 3/16”, this is because the space is necessary to allow driver to reach screwhead.

The G1 plank is meant for starter and ending planks. It has a groove on one side and flush on the other long side. The G1 plank is also for use on the stairs step. Two planks usually form a step and 2 planks also form a raiser. dassoXTR Fused Bamboo Decking is design in module to install seamlessly together.

Pre-Oiled Decking - Standard Colors

dassoXTR comes in 2 standard pre-oiled colors, Espresso and Cognac.

Espresso color is the result of taking Classic Unfinished boards, stained with WOCA Walnut penetrating oil.  This leaves the boards rich and dark with a tight band of natural color range desire by most unique audience.

Cognac color on the other hand, is a result of staining Epic Unfinished boards with a custom blend of WOCA penetrating oil.  We know the two color option may not be within your choice of colors.  Hence, we now stock unfinished materials in both Classic and Epic so you could choose to custom design your own colors.

Unfinished Decking - Customized Your Color

We know that life is never one size fits all.  That's why we stock unfinished products of both of our popular Fused Bamboo - Classic and Epic.

Classic Unfinished panels in itself is a darker material, hence it would be much harder to stain them to a lighter color.  This however could be achieved by using opac or semi-opac coatings.

Epic Unfinished panels on the other hands are neutral in color, so you would have much success in staining the planks to your choice of custom color.
