Fitrite Evolution deckboards are made from the same recycled PVC as the ECO deckboard, with the exception of the outer skin. This is constructed using a unique blend of recycled hardwood and PVC polymer (WPC). Evolution deckboard has all the visuals and aesthetics like that of real wood.
Our manufacturing process uses a variety of quality materials from known reliable sources. The result is a WPC/PVC decking product, which is more consistent, natural
looking and higher quality than normal composites. Fitrite Evolution deckboards contain natural wood fibres in its composition within the outer skin. Many types of hardwoods have a natural evolving process, where various colour changes will occur.
By developing a WPC & PVC mix in the correct ratios, we are able to control this natural process. After a 6-8 week evolution cycle, the EVO deckboard will stabilize to its naturally enhanced colour.

Balustrading is necessary to keep peoplesafe and segregated to satisfy regulations.It can become that finishing touch to anyoutdoor space.
Available in a broad range of styles andcolours, Fitrite balustrades give you theopportunity to exercise your flair andimagination in a way that others may oftenoverlook. Glass panels add 21st centuryappeal, while PVC balustrades are simple, but effective.
What you need to consider
Safety is paramount when it comes toselecting balustrades for your deck.Appearance and design are also a highpriority to consider.
We can easily appreciate how somethinglooks, but we can’t always be sure how strongit is, or whether it is fit for purpose.
This element of selecting the deck, canbe quickly overlooked or simply taken forgranted. With various systems on the market,all specifying a multitude of claims andstatements about their products, it couldbe very difficult to make a calculated andinformed decision.
Fitrite balustrades offer a comprehensiverange of diverse designs and provides peace of mind as standard.

Cherrywood Balustrade with Diamond Picket
Routering is the process of machinery hollowing out of a main surface. You’ll find that routering of our rails and pickets is different when compared to that of the finishof timber balustrade. In effect, we router the rail to fitthe picket of choice. Our routered rails are essentiallyflat pack and are self-assemble. All components can be put together by the installer, reducing the fitting time. We have many types of style varying from square, diamond, 3” and glass panelling, but our best sellers are by far the square and diamond style.
The smaller the picket, the more adaptable it is, especially where the spacing between each picket
should be no larger than 100mm, which means all ofour pickets are Building Regulations compliant. Thebeauty of routering to suit the job, means there is anopportunity to mix and match pickets and experimentin various colour combinations.
Additional positives of routering top and bottom rails to suit the job spec, allows aesthetic and design flexibility and for the installer, the process of fitting it is made simple, quick, easy and requires minimal skill.
We also cater for gradient within pickets, where we router separately for stairs and ramps, hollowing out the rails on an angle, to suit variation in that type of design.

Commercial use With Fitrite Fencing and Decking, functionality meets versatility to superb effect. Universal in application, thanks tounrivalled safety ratings and impressive durability, Fitrite has been used by football clubs, nursing homes, pubs, garden
centres and swimming pools, just to name a few. The reason than an abundance of enterprises repetitively use the same product is simple; Fitrite greatly enhances the experience for their customers, adding to the reputation of their businesses.
Balustrades may seem unsightly and unnecessary, however there are rules and regulations that warrant the need of railings around your decking. Some gardens have a gradient or terraced areas on different levels, meaning that any deckheight exceeding 1 metre, permits taller balustrading. Typically the rails need to measure 1100 mm to cater for the elevation of the deck.

• Load tested• Post reinforcing (when installed)• Galvanised steel reinforced top

• Choice of picket styles with gaps
• Comprehensive choice of colours
