Vinyl alternative to timber planks

PVC’s versatility and sustainability in construction applications is illustrated by TechBoard, an innovative product developed by Tech Plas Extrusions Pty Ltd.

Five years of intensive research and development has gone into TechBoard, which Tech Plas describes as a new plank designed to last longer and provide lower life-cycle costs than timber-based planks, with major environmental and economic benefits in the scaffolding and access industries.

Manufactured with a robust hexagonally-reinforced structure, TechBoards are designed to last so they will not swell, are impervious to weather and water, will not corrode and are non-contaminable.
