MGO Boards

Magnesium Oxide Boards for Modern Construction

Our MGO boards offer an environmentally friendly, fire-resistant alternative to conventional building boards. They are strong, versatile and well suited to modern building methods.

Important: MGO boards must be painted and sealed to withstand moisture and the extreme weather conditions found across South Africa. Proper sealing protects the board, extends its service life and ensures it performs as intended in exterior and exposed applications. Our team can advise on the right finishing approach for your project.

An honest word on fading: there is no guarantee against fading composite decking will always fade. Under acceptable conditions, our solid composite decking should fade initially by around 10% to 20%, then stabilise. None of our competitors can honestly offer this on solid decking.

IDEAL FOR

Built for South African Outdoor Living

We believe in straight talk, so here’s the truth about fade you do get better fade resistance with co-extrusion decking, but we don’t sell that product because it’s too expensive. We’d rather offer honest performance at a fair price than oversell a claim we can’t back. That same approach extends to how we do business: wholesale supply for resellers, contractors and developers, realistic expectations paired with expert technical advice, and nationwide distribution across South Africa.

Decking

The classic application built for daily outdoor use.

Pool Surrounds

Slip-resistant footing around water.

Balconies

Durable flooring that stands up to the elements.

Walkways

Low-maintenance surfaces for high-traffic paths.

Entertainment Areas

A clean, modern base for outdoor living.

Commercial Developments

Reliable performance at scale.
