Leading plastic extruder for multiple industries, Euroseal, has reported a surge in demand for deck boards, as the summer season has prompted a record number of renovation and home improvement projects.
Euroseal manufactures a comprehensive range of products for the building and construction market, supplying businesses of all shapes and sizes, from main contractors and developers involved in large residential projects, to small builders and home improvement companies, as well as DIY enthusiasts.
"Our decking solutions are available through one of our partners, Deck Supermarket, and can be easily ordered online at decksupermarket.co.uk," said Euroseal managing director, Chris Byers.
"The bulk of our decking business goes to new-build developments however, demand has spiked over the past couple of months due to smaller renovation work in the domestic market. As the housing stock is yet to keep pace with demand, there is a strong trend towards house extension projects as a means to achieve the necessary living space without having to move."
Expanding into the garden to add more square footage to the kitchen or living room areas is a very popular practice especially in the case of older properties, where the outside space is considerably larger than that of newer dwellings. Chris said: "Projects of this kind automatically require the reconstruction of the patio area, and that's had a significant contribution in our volume increase for decking solutions. Garden redesigning and landscaping projects are also soaring, as a busier lifestyle for the end-user means there is less time to look after the outdoor space, and a low maintenance solution is required, with decking being an obvious choice."
According to the manufacturer, advances in plastic extrusion, alongside the company's own sustained investment in new equipment have also contributed to the surge in demand. "The decking solutions we supply are not only sturdy and low-maintenance, they're also very easy to install and look very sleek," said Chris. He added: "Weather might not have been great so far this summer, but it looks like renovation and home improvement plans went ahead nonetheless."
