Marmax 'Boardwalk'
Timber substitute boardwalk
'A low maintenance answer to providing access for walkers, cyclists and wheelchair users. Recycled plastic cannot rot, so on going costs are kept to a minimum and use of chemicals eliminated. It is ideal for the damp, acidic and saline ground conditions that can be associated with Boardwalks, maintaining its attractive appearance without effort. It is hard wearing and suits both urban and rural situations. Our designs use a roughened surface for improved grip in wet conditions. The Boardwalk is supplied in fully assembled sections. Extras include handrails, toe rails and grooved channels.'
