Frequently Asked Questions
Do you need to lodge a Warranty Claim?
Will NewTechWood engineered timber last forever?
Not forever, but it sure feels like it! NewTechWood uses only the highest quality materials for engineering its composite timber boards. Years of engineering have been spent to ensure the correct blend of components go into NewTechWood products. NewTechWood will hold up to the test of time.
Does NewTechWood have a warranty?
Yes! There is a 25-Year Limited Residential Warranty, a 10-Year Limited Commercial Warranty, and a 25-Year Limited Stain Warranty.
Refer to the Warranty document for the conditions, and for claim procedure. It can be downloaded from the website.
Will NewTechWood composite timber fade because of exposure to the sun?
NewTechWood’s superior technology gives the boards great Ultra-Violet resistance. When installed, cared for and maintained properly in the residential exterior deck environment, NewTechWood products provide fade resistance. However, no material is fade proof, especially when the materials are exposed to years of UV Exposure and the elements.
NewTechWood warrants that the boards are resistant to colour change from light and weathering exposure as measured by colour change in excess of 5 Delta E (Hunter) units (which is the accepted industry standard.)

Can Low-emissivity (Low-E) glass affect NewTechWood products?
E-glass can cause excessive heat build-up on surrounding surfaces. The damage caused by the reflected beam of highly concentrated sunlight reflecting off the window also affects other things in its path, such as cars, other painted surfaces, artificial grass, and other plastic containing products, including vinyl cladding.
Even people exposed for more than a short time have felt discomfort and have to move away. The potential for burns exists, and eye damage is also a risk. One way to stop these potentially dangerous reflections from damaging your surrounds is to apply an anti-reflective window film on the outside of the e-glass window.
NewTechWood customers that have concerns about possible damage by Low-E glass should contact the manufacturer of the product which contains the Low-E glass for a solution to reduce or eliminate the effects of reflected sunlight.
Note: If the NewTechWood product comes into contact with extreme heat sources, over 120 degrees C, directly or indirectly, this will void the Warranty.
Are NewTechWood deck boards prone to static (static electricity)?
Like all co-extruded composite decking products, NewTechWood boards may occasionally experience a build-up of static electricity under certain environmental conditions.
Static is generally more likely to occur in areas with low humidity or dry weather and may also be influenced by factors such as the type of subframe materials used, particularly if they include metal components like balustrades. These conditions are outside of NewTechWood’s control and, as such, static build-up is not covered under warranty.
If static becomes noticeable, it can often be reduced with an anti-static spray (e.g., ACL Staticide or similar products). These water-based solutions may need to be reapplied after rain or prolonged exposure to the elements. Alternatively, insulating key contact points, such as balustrades or door handles, with a UV-resistant, outdoor-grade clear coating can help create a longer-term barrier. Multiple applications may be required for the best results.
In most cases, any static build-up will naturally diminish over time as the decking surface settles and wears in.
