Plas-Pro 50 x 50 mm joists with DuoLift system
Subframe for external decking. A durable, hardwearing and practical solution for spaces exposed to damp.
Application
Suitable as a alternative to timber for constructing supporting structures for decks, seating, planters and more.
Description
An alternative to timber for constructing supporting structures for decks, seating, planters and more; Plas-Pro is incorporated within the DuoSpan aluminium subframe system but it can also be used on its own in low-height areas, such as roof terraces, and in waterside areas where use of metal is not advisable.
Constructed from recycled plastic, Plas-Pro is strong, versatile and easy to work with. Available in a range of sizes to act as posts, joists and bearers, it can be cut and drilled just like wood, yet never rots even when placed in water. The flexibility of Plas-Pro means that it can also be used to create distinctive and special outdoor constructions, incorporating curves and twists that would be impossible with conventional materials.
Plas-Pro complements the DuoLift Joist support system along with the Millboard outdoor flooring range, enabling a complete, full turn-key, non-rot outdoor flooring solution.
