FUTUREWOOD Enviroslat Fencing
Description

FUTUREWOOD EnviroSlat Fencing and screening slats are designed to provide great value for money, easy installation, superior looks, proven sustainability and low maintenance.

Mulford supplies Enviroslat Fencing which is part of the Futurewood range. Futurewood is a composite material manufactured from 100% recycled HDPE (high density polyethylene), wood fibre and discarded rice husks or hulls.

The material is resistant to decay, fully finished, and ready for installation. It does not require recoating, although some initial weathering will occur in the first 4 – 12 weeks.

FUTUREWOOD Enviroslat Fencing is supplied in seven different colours, to a standard 4.8m length or customised lengths up to 5.8m. The boards are intended to be installed to a sub-structure (posts and rails) that have been installed to meet the building code or, where existing, the sub-structure has sufficient structural stability for the fencing installation.

Scope of Use

  • All screws should be plated or made from stainless steel or brass to meet the enviromental climate coditions.

Limitations on Use
  • Nailing is not recommended. 
  • FUTUREWOOD Enviroslat Fencing will expand or contract in length with rising or falling tempertures. All boards should be conditioned before cutting so that they are at an even temperture. Boards are best cut in the the shade before they exposed to radiant heat, in the morning. 
  • The colour will weather in the first 4-12 weeks of exposure to the elements. After the initial weathering process, the colour will stabilise with only slight changes year on year.
