ecodek

See why schools & colleges like using ecodek® composite decking so much.

Home House is an award winning private members club, located in Portman Square, London. Based in a series of historic Grade II listed Georgian town houses, Home House provides outstanding facilities for its members including luxurious accommodation, superb restaurants and bars, a fitness suite and unique private room hire spaces. Over 220sqm of new ecodek® Heritage composite decking was used to create a large decked terrace area within the club’s private garden.

360 Barking is set across 4 cylindrical towers located in the heart of Barking. 195 are private apartments and 96 are on the shared ownership scheme. As part of the regeneration plan, 360 Barking will become an icon to the area alongside the £2 billion of investment that will eventually bring 6,000 new homes, smarter shops and an art film cinema.

Central London saw the dated 1980s office building 20 Old Bailey receive a huge modernisation & upgrade. Standing directly opposite the iconic law courts, the project was completed in just under 2 years, & saw the demolition taking place at the same time as construction given the short timeframe. The extensive £59m project has enabled the building to now provide circa 240,000 square feet of high specification Cat A office accommodation. ecodek® was specified for 5 stories of long balconies stretched around each floor & the expansive roof terrace, equating to 1100m2 of material!

ecodek® supplied over 6 tonnes of pebble grey reversible composite deck boards to the site so that the contractor could install & fit the balconies at this prestigeous development.

Many of the projects we feature in case studies have been high end developments in London where the low maintenance, low potential for slip and bespoke lengths are perfectly suited for balconies on multi-storied buildings. However, those qualities (plus the excellent ‘eco credentials’) also mean that ecodek® is equally desirable for residential projects where a home-owner may be landscaping, redeveloping a site or embarking on a new build project. We were very excited to work with a dedicated home-owner on the redevelopment of their home after it was destroyed by floods.

The RSPB Visitors' Centre had major refurbishment in 2012 to become a dedicated information and advice point, welcoming visitors and showcasing the wonderful wildlife of the reserve and its sister site at Lodmoor and of the wider borough. The installation of ecodek® with additional anti-slip inserts has also increased the accessibility for visitors in wheelchairs or with prams. The updated terraced area has been specifically designed so visitors can enjoy uninterrupted views across the lake. Additional anti slip inserts were used as this was a high traffic public area in wetlands.

Designed in collaboration with Mumsnet, this landmark scheme involved the design, construction and fit-out of 117 chalets at the existing Butlin’s resort in Minehead. Architects Allison Pike Partnership worked with principal contractor McGoff & Byrne on this £16 million development built around two lakes with external terraced spaces and walkways, including a bridge. Each of the ‘seaside style’ chalets has an outside decked area with many of the properties featuring ecodek® balconies.
