For those with concerns around flex or rigidity, fear no more!
Even though Silca Grates are manufactured from 100% recycled plastic they are by no means bendy (as demonstrated here)
.
UV stabilised PCABS (Polycarbonate ABS alloy) is incredibly stress and impact resilient, combined with its engineered design provides a super solid, structural decking element allowing you to lay almost any kind of tile or paver in almost any kind of pattern or layout.
Stay tuned for tile install on this project coming soon 👀

Silca System Grates are manufactured from 100% Recycled plastics, and we have now repurposed over 80 tonne of it! ♻️
Ground and reprocessed to pallet form then injection moulded in a 750ton press into our Silca Grates.
All processes undertaken to achieve as little environmental impact and as minimal carbon footprint as possible.
By using Silca System on your deck you are:
1) helping reduce the sea of plastic waste around the planet
2) reducing your own carbon footprint, especially during construction
3) achieving a permeable patio surface not otherwise achieved with concrete slab, hence allowing rainwater to penetrate and replenish the ground bellow and not be redirected to storm water
4) NOT supporting the Deforestation of rainforests which supply common hardwood decking such as kwila!
4) helping to plant more trees to feed the bees @portwaikatohoney 🐝 and to keep the planet green 🌿

Remember team, just because it is made from recycled plastic, it does not mean it is weak or flexible!
Silca Grates are actually super super rigid and can take over 5ton spanned and over 68ton compression test!! 💪🏼

A closer look at our ‘over membrane’ floating patio solution using:
- Silca Grates for main structural surface and loading - ready to lay almost any kind of tile, paver or natural stone
- I-Lock Connectors for added rigidity and strength, locking the entire decking element together
- ripped H3.2 treated timber joist realises the fall of the membrane surface but sees a level topside.
Has the strength & solid feel of a timber joist
- Rubber Joist Mounts by DeckchairSystems
These are manufactured from ♻️RECYCLED car tyres so provide little to no ware on the membrane surface.
Are 15mm thick to provide adequate drainage beneath the joist.
Are super dense so can bear the load of a high use patio
Silca Grates and Connectors also made right here in Auckland, NZ from 100% ♻️ RECYCLED products.
