If you’re looking for a durable, low-maintenance decking solution for your dock, jetty or marina, composite decking is an excellent choice. At Ecoscape, we offer state-of-the-art composite decking products that are perfect for marine environments, providing a long-lasting and attractive surface that can withstand the elements.
Why Choose Composite Decking for Your Dock?
When it comes to choosing the best decking material for your dock, composite decking stands out for several reasons:
- Durability: Composite decking is designed to withstand the harsh conditions of marine environments, including exposure to water, UV rays, and heavy foot traffic. Unlike natural wood, composite decking won’t rot, warp, crack, or splinter, ensuring a long-lasting and structurally sound surface for your dock.
- Low Maintenance: One of the biggest advantages of composite decking is its low maintenance requirements. Unlike wood decking, which needs regular staining, sealing, and painting to maintain its appearance and structural integrity, composite decking requires minimal upkeep. Simply clean it occasionally with soap and water to keep it looking its best.
- Slip Resistance: Safety is a top priority on docks, jetties, and marinas, and composite decking provides excellent slip resistance, even when wet. This is especially important in areas where people may be walking barefoot or in wet conditions.
- Aesthetics: Composite decking comes in a variety of colours and finishes, allowing you to choose a look that complements your dock’s surroundings. Whether you prefer a natural wood grain appearance or a more modern, sleek look, there’s a composite decking option to suit your style.
Ecoscape’s Composite Decking Solutions for Docks
At Ecoscape, we offer a range of composite decking products that are perfect for docks, jetties, and marinas. Our decking is made from a blend of recycled wood fibres and plastic, creating a durable and environmentally-friendly material that looks and feels like natural wood.
Some of our most popular composite decking options for docks include:
- Forma Decking: Our Forma decking boards are designed for maximum durability and slip resistance, making them an ideal choice for docks and marinas.

- Linea Decking: For a decking option that combines the best of both worlds, consider our Linea decking boards. With a realistic wood grain texture and a range of natural colours, like Granite and Umber, Linea decking offers the look of natural wood with the durability and low maintenance of composite.
Installation and Maintenance
Installing composite decking on your dock is a straightforward process, similar to installing traditional wood decking. However, there are a few key considerations to keep in mind:
- Substructure: Ensure that your dock’s substructure is in good condition and properly reinforced to support the weight of the composite decking. For best results, use marine-grade aluminium or pressure-treated lumber for your substructure.
- Spacing: When installing composite decking boards, allow for proper spacing between boards to accommodate expansion and contraction due to temperature changes. A gap of approximately 5 mm between boards is recommended.
- Fasteners: Use high-quality, corrosion-resistant fasteners designed for use with composite decking to secure your boards to the substructure. Hidden fasteners, like our T-Clips, can create a smooth, seamless surface.
Once your composite decking is installed, maintenance is a breeze. Simply sweep off debris and clean the surface occasionally with a mild soap and water solution to keep your dock looking its best. No staining, sealing, or painting is required, saving you time and money in the long run.
