Fire Rated Decking FAQs

What is the difference between A1 and A2 fire rated decking?

A1 is the highest fire classification and is used for non combustible materials such as porcelain. A2 materials, such as aluminium decking, are also highly fire resistant but may have limited combustibility. The right option depends on your project requirements and any building regulations that apply.

Can fire rated decking be used for residential projects?

Yes, fire rated decking can be suitable for residential outdoor areas, especially where safety, durability, and a clean finish are important. It is commonly considered for gardens, terraces, balconies, and rooftop areas.

Which fire rated decking option should I choose for a wood-effect finish?

Porcelain decking is a good choice if you want a natural wood-effect appearance with strong durability. Aluminium decking is better suited where a more modern, low-maintenance metal decking system is preferred.

Can fire rated decking help reduce long-term maintenance?

Yes, porcelain and aluminium decking can reduce the need for regular maintenance compared with timber. They do not need the same level of staining, sealing, or ongoing treatment typically associated with traditional wooden decking.

When is fire rated decking considered instead of timber decking?

Fire rated decking is often considered for projects where fire performance is an important specification requirement, including certain balconies, terraces and shared outdoor spaces.
