ABOUT POLYWALK
Polydeck’s GRP boardwalks are made in the same way as our bridges and comprise decking planks which are fixed on a pultruded GRP sub-structure.
POLYwalk™ boardwalks are designed to replace traditional timber structures which rot and become unsafe to use. The unique GRP structure ensures that our boards and sub-frame will not rot over time and provide an anti-slip walking surface for pedestrians and cyclists. Ideal for use in forests, wetlands and walkways along the coast, where the damp environment can very quickly destroy a traditional timber structure.
Just like our bridges, POLYwalks boardwalks are hard to distinguish from natural timber and so blend into the natural environment.
