Millboard offers a stunning, low-maintenance alternative to natural wood decking. Handmade in the UK and meticulously styled to replicate real oak timbers, Millboard is virtually indistinguishable from genuine wood. As a type of composite decking, Millboard provides several advantages over traditional timber. It is significantly less slippery, enhancing safety in wet conditions, and boasts a wider variety of textures and finishes.
This makes Millboard a practical, stylish, and durable choice for landscaping your garden. Its durability ensures it withstands the elements, while its aesthetic appeal adds a touch of elegance to any outdoor space. Whether you’re creating a deck, steps, seating, or planters, Millboard is an excellent option for both residential and commercial landscaping projects.
Versatility
Millboard Decking is highly versatile in landscaping design, allowing for multiple applications with a single material. This helps designers create a cohesive look without the need to switch materials.
Incorporating built-in seating with the same material can create a sleek, minimalist aesthetic, giving the impression of more space – particularly beneficial for smaller urban gardens. Millboard is frequently used for built-in seating, planters, dining tables, and even pergolas.
Additionally, bullnose edging and fascia boards made from the same material add a beautiful finishing touch. They also facilitate the easy integration of under-lip lighting, providing a professional finish to entertainment areas.
Orientation
Decking lines can be used creatively to achieve various visual effects in a garden. Vertically aligned boards can guide the viewer’s gaze down the garden toward a focal point. In comparison, horizontal boards can create the illusion of greater width, making them perfect for seating areas.
Combining different decking colours allows for the creation of patterns or distinctive edges. “Picture framing” your decking can provide a formal appearance while alternating step colours can give a modern, contemporary look. Whatever look you’re going for, we have a range of decking colours, from antique to smoked oak and many more, designed to suit any type of landscape.
Durability
Millboard decking is highly durable and resistant to various elements such as light, moisture, stains, mould, algae, and impacts. This makes it the ideal choice for decking. Not only is it durable, but it is also stain-resistant. Accidents happen and we have heard plenty of horror stories about wine, food and animal faeces permanently staining wooden decking. With Millboard, there is no need to panic. Quickly remove the stain with soap and a cloth or brush to avoid future issues.
Our boards require minimal maintenance, therefore reducing the need to use potentially harmful cleaners or preservatives. As a building material, Polyurethane has a lifespan of 50 years or more, which not only means demand on global resources decreases, but you get a longer-lasting product that stands the test of time.

If you’re looking for a high-quality, stylish and low-maintenance deck, then Millboard Decking is the perfect choice. Millboard is a brilliant and versatile alternative to wooden decking, ideal not only for decking but also for steps, seating, and planters. Perfect for both homes and businesses, we highly recommend Millboard when discussing landscaping projects with our customers.
An authentic wood deck is beautiful, but it comes with a lot of maintenance. Composite decking offers that natural wood-effect with countless additional benefits:
Installing Millboard is straightforward and user-friendly. Made from a lightweight material, it can be easily cut to the desired size or shape using a standard saw blade. For optimal results, we recommend using a carbon-tipped, multi-purpose chop saw. One of the standout features of Millboard composite decking is its consistent appearance with identical patterned panels. This ensures that if you need additional decking, you can easily order more, knowing it will match perfectly.
Many customers ask us how to look after their Millboard decking, so we’ve pulled together everything you need to know:
How do you clean a Millboard decking?
A simple hose/water pressure will do the job.
Can you paint Millboard decking?
Absolutely! We only recommend the Millboard paint specified for the material.
How long does composite decking last?
Millboard decking has a 25-year guarantee.
How often do I have to oil or sand it?
Never! Millboard’s non-porous and stain resistant Lastane® surface provides a lasting beauty and quality.
