Trex High Performance Decking Now Available In The UK

Sunday, July 22nd, 2012

Trex High Performance Decking

Trex®, a world leader in high performance wood-alternative decking has now introduced its durable and beautiful outdoor living product to the UK, to bring the benefit of its 20 years’ experience of decking to the British consumer.

Trex decking is guaranteed to look “like new” for decades and as it’s made from 95 percent recycled materials, so it is eco-friendly too.

The Trex range of products is now available from Arbordeck dealers nationwide, including the revolutionary Trex Transcend® decking.

High performance combined with low maintenance:
Manufactured with a unique low-sheen, high-traffic formulation, Trex Transcend decking combines a finish that resists stains, scratches and mould with a distinctive and natural-looking, wood-grain pattern in deep, saturated colours:

  • Gravel Path (a pristine grey); Lava Rock (a reddish black);
  • Spiced Rum (an umber hue with diverse streaking);
  • Tree House (a warm earth tone) and Vintage Lantern (a deep-burnished bronze).

Furtheremore,Transcend requires extremely low maintenance.

  • It won’t rot, warp, crack or splinter, so upkeep is hassle-free.
  • The product requires no sanding, staining or painting, and spills wash off easily with just soap and water.
  • The explanation for the extreme durability of Trex Transcend decking is its integrated shell, which is two to three times thicker than that of other maker’s products.
  • Each board is protected on three sides for greater defence against severe weather and heavy foot traffic, while the underside of each board breathes to avoid surface separation and ensure ultimate endurance.
  • The Transcend decking collection is also backed by a 25-year Limited Residential Fade and Stain Warranty.

Design Flexibility

Each Trex Transcend deck board is available in two profile options – square and grooved. The grooved boards accommodate the Trex Hideaway® Hidden Fastening System, which allows for a smooth, unfettered finish free of nails and other visible fasteners.
The Trex Transcend collection also includes railing components, which offer the same beauty and low maintenance as Transcend decking.

Environmental Commitment

Trex decking is manufactured of reclaimed wood and sawdust, as well as recycled plastic from many common household items and no trees have ever been felled to make their products.
Prices start from £75m2 including VAT (tax) and secret fixings.

Autumnal Berry Shade Glass Fronted Kitchen Launched By ALNO

Saturday, July 21st, 2012

ALNO's Purple High Gloss Vetrino Kitchen

ALNO, a European leader in glass fronted kitchens, has launched a sumptuous, trendy purple shade to its popular Vetrina high-gloss range.

The current fashion for purple kitchens is stimulated by the growth in open plan and homeowners preference for a central hub, to enable them to converse while cooking in the home.

Purple is a lavish colour linked to creativeness; the dark and ominous shade adds drama to the kitchen, as the glossy texture of the glass captures light and adds a dimension of luxury.

Rosalyn Hastings, ALNO’s National Sales Manager, commented: “The popularity of our violet matt colour way launched in 2011, encouraged us to create a bolder and glossier version for those looking for a statement. Purple is ideal for punctuating a neutral canvas to create a regal atmosphere, bringing a touch of glamour to contemporary kitchens.”

  • Used with creative lighting, the high gloss purple cabinets make it easy to switch between intense and passionate, to fun and excited atmospheres.
  • The purple colourway provides a smooth high-shine finish, to broaden and compliment the existing five colours in the ALNO glass fronted range, including the popular platinum blue in 2011.
  • ALNO kitchens are available from leading retailers across the UK, priced from £15,000.
