A-Rated external flooring specialists, Alfresco Floors, have introduced their latest non-combustible decking system, AR-Deck, to facilitate the growing need for a safe, compliant and stylish solution for use in high-rise projects.

Manufactured in the UK, the 100% aluminium system comprises of deckboards with a fully adjustable pedestal and joist sub-frame. The patented pedestal has an in-built slope correction facility of up to 5%, meaning that uneven groundworks or fall requirements are easily accommodated without the need for additional products.

The AR-Deck system is aimed to significantly speed up installation time, whilst providing specifiers with a fully A-rated solution in very short lead times.

As work gets underway to replace combustible cladding on buildings above 18 metres in height, the launch of the system comes at a time when fire-rated materials are a crucial component of any high-rise project.

Alfresco Floors, which is the sister company to The Outdoor Deck Company and Buzon UK Ltd, have been at the forefront of fire related products, producing an e-Book on product requirements for A-rated external flooring, running CPDs for architects and landscape professionals, and offering full technical site-specific advice.

Mike Wilderink comments:

“We identified a huge gap in the UK supply chain to the UK construction industry for a quality fire-rated external flooring system that would meet the new 2019 edition ‘Approved Document B’ - Building Regulations for England”.
