Our Aluminium Decking is a high-quality, powder-coated Decking solution. It's engineered to be fully compliant with the latest fire safety regulations, making it the ideal material to install on mid and high-rise buildings that are more than 18m off the ground as well as balcony projects. It has a contemporary, sleek appearance, is very lightweight, and has excellent longevity - with a life expectancy of up to 100 years.
Aluminium Decking is highly suitable for use on new builds, terraces, balconies and refurbishment projects whereby flooring may need replacing due to a change in residential fire safety regulations. The non-combustible materials used to manufacture the Boards make Aluminium Decking the perfect system for use on commercial walkways, or any other floor area that has to comply with relevant building regulations, thanks to their A2 S1 fire rating and low-slip properties.
The high thermal conductivity properties of Powder-Coated Aluminium Boards also make for a cooler underfoot surface when exposed to direct sunlight in areas such as balconies and terraces, for example, making them a more suitable decking option compared to a timber or composite decking board, which contain combustible materials and are not suitable for high rise and balcony flooring.

Cladco Aluminium Decking System
Cladco Decking provides a standard range of Powder-Coated Aluminium Decking products that are A2 fire rated and manufactured to the highest standards for your project.
Boards: Our S1-rated non-combustible Aluminium Decking Boards
are available in 3.6m lengths, and come in four semi-matte colours; Black, Anthracite, Stone Grey and Sand.
They are also available in a plain anodised Aluminium finish. Anodising is an electrochemical process that
develops an extremely hard, non-toxic coating on the surface of the Boards which improves durability and
provides a low-maintenance, heavy-duty finish.
Joists: Cladco Aluminium Joists are available in 4m lengths and are designed to create a supportive substructure for your Aluminium Decking installation to be fixed upon. Reinforcing the structure of your Deck, Aluminium Joists are ultra-lightweight and have superior strength when compared to timber joists or composite joists. These Joists can also be used to support any composite or timber decking installation and are not limited to Aluminium Boards alone.
Corner Trims: Cladco Aluminium Corner Trims are 2.2m in length and are intended to be fitted alongside Decking projects to conceal any exposed corners or edges - creating a strong and seamless finish. Manufactured from the same Powder-Coated A2-S1 fire-rated aluminium material as our non-combustible boards, they are ideal for use on steps, multi-levels or any balconies where the corner edges of the decking are exposed.
Skirting Trim: Our non-combustible and durable Aluminium Skirting Trims are designed to edge the exposed perimeters of any Decking project. Best suited to Aluminium installations, they help to prevent any small animals or debris from entering the undersides.
Cladco Aluminium Boards, Corner Trims and Skirting Trims are all available in the same four semi-matte colours; Black, Anthracite, Stone Grey and Sand - as well as plain anodised aluminium finishes. Our Aluminium Joists are available in the colour Black only (due to the nature of the joists' purpose, these will be covered and so the joist and their colour will not be visible).
Cladco also provides a range of screws and fixings for an easy and seamless installation.
A2 Fire Rated
Cladco Aluminium Decking products have an A2 Fire Rating. This is a fire rating which works in accordance with BS EN 13501 regulations making it ideal for fire safety applications at height, thanks to its s1 non-combustible properties. This means the aluminium material will not burn or catch alight if exposed to fire or extreme heat.
Perfect As Balcony Decking
Since 2018, the Building Amendment Regulations and Guidances have been changed completely for balcony decking. These regulations now prohibit any use of combustible materials on buildings that are over 18 meters - and so A2 fire-rated aluminium balcony decking is the only appropriate material for these types of high-level installations.

FAQs
Can your Aluminium Decking be installed on a flat roof?
Yes, provided the underlying substructure is level and stable using our Aluminium Joists and suitable pedestal brackets, our Decking Boards can be installed upon a flat roof, and make a great solution to a long-lasting outdoor space with striking rooftop views.
How is the water drainage with your aluminium Deck Boards?
Cladco Aluminium Deck Boards feature a positive drainage system that provides excellent water runoff when used on a terrace or balcony project. This is due to the slight sloping angle at which the decking should be installed upon. Please follow our easy Installation Guide to ensure your aluminium supporting system is correctly fitted to benefit from this.
How is the slip resistance of your aluminium Decking Boards?
When Boards are laid perpendicular to their main walking path, combined with the finely-grooved surface of the Boards, Aluminium Decking can benefit from additional slip-resistant properties.
