Application

Engineered for versatility and long-term performance, this aluminium decking system is particularly suitable for both new construction and adaptive reuse projects. Its modular design and integrated support structure make it particularly well-suited for elevated outdoor environments where drainage, durability, and fire compliance are critical.

Whether installed over structural slabs, steel balcony frames, or podium decks, the system adapts seamlessly to a variety of architectural conditions. It is especially effective in applications requiring integrated balustrade support, precise levelling, and minimal maintenance.

Typical applications include:

  • Residential building apartment balconies.
  • Commercial terrace platforms.
  • Rooftop amenity decks.
  • Public access walkways.
  • Podium-level courtyards.

Description

The Forte Pespa Aluminium Decking System is a precision-engineered solution designed for demanding outdoor environments. Available in 23 mm and 34 mm extruded profiles, this system offers both free-draining and controlled-drainage configurations to suit a wide range of project needs. Beneath the decking, a robust BOX-profile structural rail supports integrated balustrade systems, while adjustable aluminium pedestals provide accurate levelling—whether fixed to the structure or free-standing on rigid surfaces.

This system is particularly suitable for projects requiring long-term durability, fire compliance, and minimal maintenance. Its modular format ensures fast installation and adaptability across various applications, from high-rise balconies to rooftop terraces.

Features and benefits:

  • Fire-rated: achieves A2-s1,d0 classification for non-combustibility.
  • Drainage options: choose between open-jointed free-drain or controlled-drainage formats.
  • Integrated structure: BOX-profile sub-rails support balustrades without additional framing.
  • Flexible installation: pedestals can be fixed or free-standing, particularly suitable for retrofit or new build.
  • Sustainable: made from recyclable aluminium with up to 30% recycled content.
  • Low profile: 23 mm and 34 mm board options for minimal build-up.
  • Durability: will not warp, rot, or degrade over time.
  • Finish options: available in a wide range of RAL colours with Qualicoat-certified powder coating.
  • Minimal maintenance: no sealing, staining, or chemical treatments required.
  • Warranty: backed by a 25-year product warranty and 60+ year design life.

This system is a future-proof choice for architects, developers, and contractors seeking a high-performance, visually refined decking solution that meets modern safety and sustainability standards.
