Eurocell offers labour-saving alternative to timber fencing
Composite Fencing from Eurocell – the UK's leading supplier of building plastics – provides an attractive, environmentally friendly a maintenance-free alternative to timber fencing.

Manufactured from Wood-Grain, a composite comprising 75% recycled material, Eurocell Composite Fencing offers the look and feel of timber without the hassle, and the durability of concrete without the weight and health and safety concerns.

Wood-Grain consists mainly of recycled PVC-U, with a premium wood composite surface, and is guaranteed for 20 years against rotting.

Simple and easy to install, Composite Fencing consists of panels weighing less than 5kg that are slotted into place and stacked to the required height. Replacing wooden panels in an existing fence is simplicity itself: just remove old panels and slot into the existing concrete posts. Composite Fencing Wood-Grain fence posts are also very easy to install as, like the panels, they can be sawn to measure and fixed using the system's "˜SupaSpike' – whereby the spike is driven into the ground and the post fitted over the top. For surfaces such as driveways and pavements, a bolt down version is available.  

Independent tests have shown that the Composite Fencing components have greater tensile strength than concrete. The posts are flexible and so absorb and dissipate the energy from strong winds, whereas concrete posts will not flex and so can break in high winds and severe storms. In one case, a post supported 56 stone – three burly men standing on it lengthways – without breaking.

Composite Fencing has an attractive matt wood finish on each side of the panel so will prove more aesthetically acceptable to neighbours – and who might be even persuaded to share in the cost of installation.

Once erected, Eurocell Composite Fencing will not require maintenance to protect it against rot and decay, offering a considerable saving over timber in labour and materials. Eurocell calculates that ten 1.8m timber panels will, over a decade, require treatment every two years at a cost of around £650. By contrast, Composite Fencing will weather naturally just like any other outdoor product and merely become slightly lighter in appearance over time.

Three colour finishes – Natural, Graphite and Walnut – are offered. Panels come in lengths of 1.8 and 2.4 metres (6' and 8' respectively); and with a height of 300mm. Available post heights are 1.8, 2.4 and 2.7 m lengths, while a selection of decorative caps shaped tops for the boards complete the suite for bespoke and premium installations.
