Rethinking Outdoor Living: What Exterwood Teaches Us About Design That Lasts

Imagine this: It’s a humid Sunday afternoon in Exterwood Malaysia. You step barefoot onto your deck after a dip in the pool. You expect the usual — perhaps a splinter, a soft spot, or a faint warp underfoot. But instead, you feel something different: a surface that’s cool, solid, and perfectly level.

This is Exterwood EcoR Deck — the product of engineering precision and lived experience. In a region where traditional wood deteriorates and WPC (Wood Plastic Composite) expands under heat and humidity, Exterwood redefines what tropical climate suitable flooring means. Because the ultimate luxury isn’t complexity — it’s simplicity that endures. A deck that lets you enjoy your outdoor space day after day, year after year, without the burden of constant upkeep.


The Origin of Comfort: From Field Frustration to Lasting Innovation

Exterwood’s story doesn’t begin with marketing strategy — it begins on-site, with frustration. Its founder, a seasoned outdoor decking contractor, spent years watching projects deteriorate before their time. The corners would rot, the surfaces would fade, and WPC boards — once touted as “maintenance-free” — would warp and crack in the tropical sun.

The realization was clear: the issue wasn’t installation — it was material limitations. Determined to change this, he built Exterwood from the ground up, transforming experience into innovation. He established Exterwood’s own manufacturing facility in China, ensuring full control over production quality — a direct supplier with no middlemen.

Today, Exterwood is the only brand in Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia producing PVC outdoor decking enhanced with Polymerised Glass Fibre (PGF) technology — offering a product designed to outperform in the most demanding climates.

Beyond innovation, Exterwood remains true to its roots, offering both “supply & install” and “supply only” services for residential and commercial clients alike.


The Freedom of the Exterwood Waterproof Decking: Engineered for the Tropics

The secret behind Exterwood’s waterproof flooring lies in its uncompromising material design.

Instead of wood or wood-flour composites, EcoR Deck is built from 100% PVC, structurally reinforced with PGF (Polymerised Glass Fibre) technology. This zero-wood formula completely eliminates the weaknesses that plague other decking materials.

  • Total Waterproof Protection
    With no organic content, EcoR Deck absorbs zero moisture — making it fully moisture-proof, mold-proof, and termite-proof flooring. It resists rot, decay, and structural softening even in Malaysia’s high-humidity environment.
  • PGF Reinforcement for Dimensional Stability
    The polymerised glass fibre core acts as a stabilizer against thermal expansion and contraction, ensuring crack-free flooring that remains perfectly level, season after season.
  • ASA UV Protection for Long-Lasting Beauty
    A high-performance ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate) surface coating shields against intense UV exposure, maintaining the board’s texture and tone. The result: long-lasting color decking that stays vibrant through countless summers.

Together, these innovations make EcoR Deck the definitive waterproof and sun-proof decking recommendation — a perfect fusion of engineering and design resilience. Every Exterwood product is backed by a 10-year limited warranty covering fading, warping, and cracking, underscoring the brand’s confidence in its enduring performance.


Living the Low Maintenance Life: The EcoR Deck Experience

The true luxury of Exterwood EcoR Deck is not only its strength — it’s the peace of mind it gives. With no sanding, sealing, or oiling required, homeowners reclaim their weekends from endless maintenance. A simple rinse is all it takes to keep the surface clean and beautiful.

This makes EcoR Deck more than just low maintenance decking — it’s a lifestyle choice that values simplicity and sustainability. Because the longest-lasting deck is also the most eco-friendly one, reducing waste and the need for constant replacement.

And safety? That’s built in, too. Every board is certified R12 slip-resistant, ensuring reliable traction in wet areas like poolsides, balconies, or resort walkways. It’s outdoor living, refined — designed for comfort, built for longevity.


Beyond Homes: Trusted by Professionals, Chosen by Designers

Exterwood’s excellence extends far beyond private residences. The brand has been entrusted with commercial and hospitality projects across Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia, ranging from resort promenades and rooftop terraces to restaurant patios and residential developments.

This track record demonstrates not only the product’s technical superiority but also the brand’s reputation for reliability and partnership. Exterwood’s mission is simple: to elevate every outdoor experience through materials that combine beauty, safety, and endurance.


Redefining the Essence of Outdoor Design

In a world obsessed with appearances, Exterwood teaches us that the most profound form of design is durability. It’s not just about how a space looks today — but how it stands the test of time. From its origins in practical frustration to its rise as a leading durable outdoor flooring brand, Exterwood has proven that craftsmanship and technology can coexist — creating not just a deck, but a legacy.

With operations established in Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia, and expansion underway into Thailand, Exterwood continues to bring its philosophy of low-maintenance, long-lasting beauty to tropical homes and projects around the world.
