our commiTmenT To The environmenT

LDT recognise the importance of environmental considerations in operating

the business. as a responsible organisation, LDT, being part of James

Latham Plc seeks to follow in all areas of its activities, policies that

recognise this. it is considered that with best practices observed, timber

and wood products are the ultimate sustainable and recyclable materials,

requiring low energy consumption to process and being thermally efficient

in use.

Where possible, the company will purchase timber products independently

certified as coming from well-managed forests by organisations such as

the Forest Stewardship council (FSc) or Programme for the Endorsement

of Forest certification (PEFc). The company has set up third party audited

chain of custody systems to ensure that this material is not mixed with

products of unknown origin.

Where certified product is not available, LDT is committed to sourcing

materials from suppliers who are operating within the laws of their

own country. Third party verification is sought in high-risk areas where

governance is weak. The Timber Trades Federation (TTF) responsible

purchasing policy, which is a risk based due diligence process, is carried

out on suppliers.

The Group aims to adopt environmental standards at least equal to legal

requirements and to integrate environmental considerations into its

decision making in such areas as transport, energy usage, treatment

plants, waste disposal and health and safety requirements.

The FSc® logo identifies timber from well managed forests.

For further information on our scope of FSc certifications please

iDecK DisTribuTionLDT distributes iDEcK hardwood decking throughout the uK and Eire.

For information on the application of iDEcK together with availability of

local iDEcK distributor.

iDecK species

Wood is not a uniform material and each plank of wood

has its own character, dependent on the source and

growing conditions of the tree from which it came. although

planks may emanate from the same source, they can

show variation in grain and colour, sometimes on the same

plank. Therefore, samples and photographs shown in our

literature are unable to be representative of the total

amount of wood delivered, each plank will be unique. Once

the timbers are exposed to ultraviolet light however, natural

oxidation will occur and the differences in colour and grain

wil become more uniform.

Much of the beauty of tropical timber lies in the variation in

colour – from the warm red hues of Massaranduba, to the

golden brown of Bangkirai and the rich chocolate brown

of ipe. in order to retain the richness of these colours, it is

highly recommended that the timbers be regularly treated

with a good quality oil preservative.

The guarantee for products within the iDEcK range to resist

impact, decay and insect attack is dependent on normal

conditions of usage and is limited to the replacement of

defective parts with the same or, at least, an equivalent

product. installation costs are not included.

For non-reversible boards we do not guarantee the quality

of the underside which could show defects such as nodes

and small cracks.

Storage: store the iDEcK floor boards in their original

packaging, preferably in a well ventilated, roofed over space –

avoid direct bright sunlight

Treating the boards prior to installation: thoroughly rinse the

boards with water before installing in order to avoid rainwater

causing excessive tannin leakage

Tools: drill, screwdriver, crosscut saw, belt sander, tightening

screws, heel iron, square, gluing clamp, chalk line

Ground base preparation: make sure the ground base is stable,

solid and smooth – a slant of approximately 1 cm/running metre

will provide the correct water drainage – to prevent weeds

from growing, it is advisable to cover with a root cloth – tropical

hardwood contains elements/tannic acids (e.g. oak-wood) that

increase the boards’ resistance – however, rain can also cause

them to wash out in the form of a brown liquid – for this reason

you must avoid direct, unprotected contact with plastered and/

or other walls and floors – foil protection is recommended

The support construction: the support beams must be fixed into

the ground base to ensure a secure foundation – the support

beams must be of the same kind of tropical hardwood as the

visible boards – attention: the support beams must be at least

twice the thickness of the boards (e.g. for boards of 21 x 145 mm,

use support beams of at least 42 x 70 mm) – overall a width of

50 mm will suffice, but in places where two ends of the boards

are to be joined together, you will need a width of 70 mm –

during alignment, ensure that the correct distance between

beams is maintained: the distance depends on the strength and

width of the boards (see graph)

Placement on a concrete or tilted floor: the support beams

must be fixed into the ground base to ensure a secure

foundation – we recommend placing the beams in such a way

that they are parallel to the direction of the drainage

Placement on a slanted ground base: it is advisable to use the

adjustable synthetic support elements (± 8m2), which also need

to be fixed into the ground base

Placement on natural soil: when necessary, apply a stabilized

and levelled sand or gravel layer – place concrete tiles 50 cm

apart to provide sufficient support and fixture for the support

beams – verify the height and slant, cover with a rootcloth and

fix the support beams into the concrete tiles

Freestanding terrace: consult your architect/contractor, who

will be able to provide you with the correct information, adapted

to your requirements

To order m2: to install in a random sequence, allow 5 to 10 %

more boards compared to the surface area to be covered – to

install under an angle of 45°, with corners or irregular joints,

allow 15 to 20 % more boards compared to the surface area to

be covered

Over time some of the natural tannin within the wood is washed

out although this can be reduced by thoroughly rinsing the

boards with water before installation. Such tannins can cause

staining to adjacent materials such as concrete, brickwork and

metalwork and consideration should be made for this prior to

installation.Further tannin leakage may occur as a result of

heavy rain fall and is likely to be most noticeable soon after

installation

where cAn iDecK cladding be useD:

New construction, residential property, office buildings,

industrial buildings and commercial offices, educational

facilities, ... and of course for renovation purposes.

iDecK cladding can:

improve the quality of life through the sound and thermal

insulation provided by the cladding.

improve the aesthetics of the facade.

improve the overall resistance of the facade to water

(like an umbrella).

General Precautions: Make sure that there is enough

ventilation possible behind the cladding, a minimum space

of 1 cm is needed. (Generally determined by the thickness

of bearers). The backbone must be naturally sustainable

wood (durability class 1). it must be anchored to the wall by

appropriate fasteners to enable the bearers to be mounted.

a distance between bearers must be 40 to 60 cm. They must

not impede the ventilation cladding. Minimum section of bearer

is usually 27 x 42 mm.

install gauze on the top and bottom of your cladding to prevent

leaves, bird nests etc. from hindering the ventilation behind the

cladding. The iDEcK cladding can be put in a vertical, horizontal

or inclined direction. For a horizontal installation, please ensure

that the tongue is always pointing up, and the groove down.

Remember that the lowest cladding board must be more

than 20 cm from the ground.

include an expansion joint (+ / - 1mm) while installing the

cladding. They are fixed with stainless steel nails/screws

(+/- 26 nails/screws / m”).

Hidden installation only with boards < 125 mm, all wider boards

(>125mm) need to be fixed with two fasteners stainless

(steel nails/screws).

We can provide aluminium corners, in and outgoing,

as well as expansion profiles.

Maintenance: Our cladding can remain unprotected,

it will oxidize naturally to a silver gray colour as a result

of ultraviolet sunrays and weather.

fiTTing insTrucTions

To solve the rare occurence of splinters, we advise, once the

installation is finished, that you douse the deck with water (or

wait until after the first rainfall) and, once dry, sandpaper the

surface. This will assist in breaking the heads of any splinters

which may occur. Natural oxidation due to ultraviaolet light

will cause the decking to grey (particularly around swimming

pools). We take no responsibility with regard to accidents

regarding slipping.



for sTAnDArD iDecK for The iDecK cLip sysTem

installing with visible screws: please pay

attention to the direction of the wood fibres and

slight colour variations prior to placement – place

all boards in the same direction

Space between boards: the boards will expand

and contract depending on changing seasonal

temperatures and the humidity in the air – before

commencing, it is recommended that the degree

of humidity in the boards should be checked –

bearing this in mind, installation of the boards

must comply with the following rules: the distance

between every individual board must be 5 to 10

mm – this expansion joint provides room for the

wood to ‘breath’ (expand and shrink) according

to the weather, without causing damage to the

decked floor area – in the event that the decking

area is placed against a wall or another fixed

element, you need to provide a joint of at least 10

mm between the boards and the wall and/or fixed

element

Joining the board ends: each board end should

rest on a support beam and be screwed down by,

at least, 2 screws to limit movement of the wood

Predrilling: use a chalk line to get the correct

alignment and pre-drill the screw holes (e.g.

if your screw is 6 mm, predrill using a 5 mm

drill) – the distance between the screw hole

and the board end should be maximum 5-7 cm

(and minimum 2 cm) in order to prevent any

protuberance at the ends – use exclusively

stainless steel screws for an impeccable and

lasting result – use 2 screws for every board

with a length of at least twice the board’s width

Screws: it is recommended to use inox screws,

and to insert them on a slow setting speed into

the wood – the screw’s head should be level with

the board’s surface, so that no screw heads are

left protruding

Finishing up: you can apply a 45° slant on the

board ends using a manual or electric plane or

a belt sander – you can also use a u-end profile

from our collection

installing with iDEcK clip: place the rounded

finishing profile on the bearers, and screw to the

bearer – screw a clip to every bearer (pre-drill

the bearer with 3.5 mm drill) – slide the plank

onto the clip, a rubber hammer and a piece of

wood can be used to assist this process – every

butt must be secured with a clip, where you have

two butts on each side, use a clip on each one –

please use bearers of 42 x 70 mm installed flat

in this process – continue this until your decking

area is finished – the last piece can be a plank or

the rounded finishing profile – enjoy your decking

for many years

Products are supplied on the basis that clients

have checked that products are fit for purpose

in mind. under certain climatic conditions

Massaranduba may act differently than

described in this brochure. For further details,

please contact your local timber merchant.

Please read the instructions for standard iDEcK

first as these apply also to the installation with

the plugs.

Before you start please make sure that all the

boards are put down on you deck in the final

position. This way you can easily draw straight

lines to pre drill the boards. a special drill is

provided in the iDEcK plug box to pre drill the

wholes for the plugs. The size of this special

drill is exactly the same as the plugs. Once the

wholes for the plugs are made, you pre drill the

board and bearer with a drill of 4mm diameter, to

be used with the screws you find in the box. Now

you can start to fix the boards with the provided

screws and screw bit. Once the entire deck is

done, you can put the plugs in the predrilled

holes. a drop of white wood glue (D4) in every

hole so the plug is glued to the board. any

excess of glue needs to be removed immediately

with a clean cloth. Make sure that the conical

part of the plugs is the downside. (a hammer may

be used)

Once all the plugs are in place, you can if needed

use a belt sander to sand your deck and plugs to

obtain a superb result.

Please note that in areas that could be

considered slip sensitive, such as on steps, near

doorways, pool sides, outdoor smoking areas

and public places such as pub’s and restaurants,

adequate precautions should be taken to ensure

that the risk if slipping is reduced to a minimum.

Even with the grooved/reeded face profiling,

timber decking can still be treacherous to walk

on when wet and SaFEGRiP should be considered

in such areas, in particular for commercial

installations. However, it may be possible to apply

additional anti slip measures after installation if

required.
