When enhancing the outdoor spaces of Hawai‘i’s homes, the choice between wood and composite decking is more than just aesthetics. It’s about creating a space that’s not only beautiful but also built to withstand the unique challenges of island life. Hawai‘i’s year-round sun, ocean spray and high humidity affect outdoor structures. Fiberon Decking offers a sustainable, durable alternative to traditional wood. Its products are tailored for Hawai‘i’s homeowners who want longevity and less of an environmental impact on our island.

Comparing Wood and Composite Decking

Wood and composite decking are popular choices for different reasons. However, when compared, composite decking edges ahead in many ways.

• • • Cost Over Time
      While wood may have a lower initial installation cost, the added maintenance and potential for quicker replacement means that it can cost more over the lifespan of a composite deck.

• • • Sustainability
      Using recycled materials in composite decking makes it the more sustainable option for an ecologically conscious homeowner.

• • • Longevity
      Composite decks have a much longer lifespan than wood decks, necessitating fewer replacements and reducing material waste.

• • • Aesthetic Freedom
      Fiberon’s composite decking options offer various styles, colors, and finishes, giving homeowners more aesthetic control over their outdoor spaces.

The Fiberon Advantage Over Traditional Wood

Composite decking, such as the Fiberon Decking available at all Hawai‘i Island, Maui and O‘ahu HPM Building Supply locations, brings considerable benefits over classic wooden decks. Here are some of the standout features:

• • • Fire-Rated Quality
      With the increasing frequency and intensity of wildfires in Hawaiʻi over the last decade, it's crucial to consider the fire resistance of building materials, especially in areas where landscapes are becoming more fire-prone. Fiberon's commitment to manufacturing fire-rated decking that meets California fire code requirements for Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) zones is a significant step towards ensuring the safety of homes and structures in these vulnerable areas. By offering both PVC and PE composite decking options that have been rigorously tested and approved for use in WUI zones, Fiberon provides homeowners and contractors with the peace of mind that comes with using materials designed to withstand the challenges posed by potential wildfires. Investing in fire-resistant decking materials is not only a smart choice for protecting your property, but it also contributes to the overall resilience of our communities in the face of a changing climate.
    • Durability and Longevity
      One of the most significant advantages composite decking holds over its wood counterpart is durability. Fiberon Decking is resistant to rot, decay and insect damage. This prolonged longevity requires far less maintenance over its significantly longer lifespan, reaching 25 years or more.

• • • Low Maintenance
      Fiberon decking doesn’t need to be stained, sealed or painted to maintain its appearance and integrity. This low-maintenance feature is a godsend for those who want to spend less time on upkeep and more time enjoying their home's serene beauty.

• • • Environmental Sustainability
      Fiberon Decking is an environmentally friendly choice because it utilizes a combination of recycled wood and plastic. This blend of materials repurposes leftover timber and recycled plastics, including grocery bags and packaging materials that would otherwise end up in landfills.

• • • Resistance to Fading and Staining
      Fiberon led the way with its industry-defining 25+-year warranty against fading and staining introduced in 2009. Fiberon continues to offer industry-leading warranties, assuring homeowners of the product’s robustness under Hawai‘i’s extreme conditions.
