NewTechWood Vintage
Vintage · Red Cedar · Image: NewTechWood
Capped decking board, 140 × 23 mm, 95% recycled, with a textured anti-slip face. We used it in Vintage Red in Sant Celoni and Blanes.
Composite, timber and the substructure you don’t see.
We work with a few brands and know them well. We choose the material for each project’s use, sun and water exposure, and we bring samples to the site visit.
Composite · Bruggan MultiColor
Five grained colours, no varnish.
One of the two composites we install most, along with NewTechWood Vintage. The grain and colour are part of the board itself, so it never needs painting or varnishing. Choose a colour to see it up close.

Inside the board
Solid, with the grain running right through.
The colour and grain aren’t a surface layer: they run through the full thickness of the board. That’s why it can be cut, mitred and sanded like wood, and a scratch won’t reveal a different colour underneath.
Other decking
Decking for every project.
Depending on the area, use and budget, we also install these decking boards.
Legro Natural DSL 138
DSL 138 · Teak · Image: Legro Natural
138 × 22 mm, reversible: natural grain on one side, dune effect on the other. Same colours as the Legro façade cladding. In Albons: 125 m² in Teak.
Natural timber
Ipe, teak and pine
Premium hardwoods for high-end projects, and treated or thermo-treated pine as the more affordable option.
Renewable surface
If it gets marked, it can be repaired.
A wine stain, a mark or a surface scratch doesn’t mean replacing the board. They come out by sanding the area with 60–80 grit paper in the direction of the grain. At first the sanded area may look slightly different; over time it blends in.
For everyday cleaning, water, a soft brush and mild soap are all you need. You can also use a pressure washer, with the jet running along the board.
How we install it
Exactly as the manufacturer specifies.
Bruggan’s 25-year warranty only applies if the decking is installed according to its instructions. That’s why we follow them on every project, including the parts you won’t see afterwards. When we finish, we hand you the completed warranty card.
- 01Joists at 36.6 cm maximum centre to centre.
- 02Expansion gaps: 4–6 mm between board ends and at least 10 mm against walls.
- 03A fall so that water drains, and ventilation kept clear under the decking at all times.
- 04Every board end supported on its own joist and fixed with the original clip.
Composite or timber
The differences at a glance.
| Composite | Premium hardwood | Pine | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maintenance | Hardly any: soap and water | Regular care | Regular staining |
| Appearance over the years | Keeps its colour | Turns grey if untreated | Turns grey if unprotected |
| Feel | Uniform | Warmer and more natural | Warm, softer |
| By the pool | Copes well with chlorine and sun | Hardwoods, with care | Treated or thermo-treated, with care |
| Material warranty | 20 to 25 years from the manufacturer | Depends on the timber | Depends on the treatment |
And in every case, a 2-year guarantee on our installation.
