As teak supplies continue to decline in the UK, we’re proud to offer a proven, sustainable alternative that that not only meets today’s performance demands but also supports a healthier planet.
Unlike synthetic alternatives, Marinedeck 2000 was developed specifically for the harsh demands of boating and yachting and it delivers every time and can last for decades.
While other marine cork decking options rely on extruded cork sheets — a faster, cheaper process — this method can lead to inconsistencies and reduced durability over time.
It is produced using precision moulds subjected to high-pressure compression. These moulds combine extra small cork granules with a specially developed synthetic binder that adheres to strict environmental regulations. This hybrid solution of natural cork and the binder delivers optimal strength and longevity whilst providing an eco-friendly decking solution to the marine industry and beyond.

Whether you’re launching a new production line or refitting a beloved family yacht, we work closely with you to deliver a decking solution that meets your exact needs.
Individual planks or large-format sheets, with or without caulking
Seamed and caulked for a traditional marine aesthetic
Custom templated, prefabricated decks – ready for fast, seamless installation
CNC-cut decks using digital footprints – ideal for production boatbuilding
Bespoke layouts and custom designs for unlimited sizes and styles.
Every deck is precision-engineered for long-term performance, safety, and striking visual appeal — built to look as good as it performs.
We offer a modern, sustainable alternative to traditional decking materials. While marine decks have generally relied on teak, sawn woods, or plastic-based PVC options, our natural cork decking provides all the benefits without contributing to deforestation or excessive plastic use. Cork is a renewable, eco-conscious material that doesn’t require tree cutting, and unlike synthetic alternatives, it minimizes environmental impact over its entire lifecycle.
Thanks to its exceptional durability, a cork deck can last for decades — meaning you won’t need to replace your decking every 10 years like with many traditional options. This extended lifespan helps eliminate unnecessary waste, making it one of the most sustainable choices for marine flooring.

Reduces heat loss by up to 36%
Lowers surface temperature by up to 53%
Is so effective, it’s even used in space shuttle heat shields
