When we started our business and started installing synthetic teak decking on boats, most people who had heard about DEK-KING were skeptical. They soon chaged their mind until they saw the finished results in terms of appearance and maintenance.

Synthetic teak is where fiberglass boats were at first. The real advantage of artificial teak is the minimal maintenace.

Our teak decking material is remarkably close to real wood and it looks really good. Installing synthetic decking over a large area takes a good deal of care but at the end you will definately be very happy with the result. Smaller projects, like installing a new “teak” cockpit sole, seats or a transom swim step, should be well within the ability of a careful DIY sailor. Our synthetic teak can be ordered in strips, which fit together in a tongue-and-groove fashion. This makes it very easy to install.

When it arrives, all you need to do is glue the new piece in place using our cold welding adhesive which will melt the material to give you a very strong joint. Surface treatment on our decking is minimal: there is no need for sanding, even on nonskid.

Bottom line: strange as it may seem, “fake” teak is for real. If you are tired of keeping up the teak on your boat, give it a look.

The editorial staff of the Sail Magazine - US Edition of January 2011 had this to say about our product "Another strong candidate aesthetically, Dek-King provides an excellent combination of wood-like appearance and texture, without being in any way “hairy.” It received high marks from the entire SAIL staff, and includes unique T-shaped grooves on its bottom surface that, in theory, promote stronger adhesion.
