The material

Not wood. Not a wood-filled composite.

Tarimatec is PVC bound with rice husk and limestone — an agricultural by-product and a mineral, with no wood flour in the board. There is nothing inside it that can swell, rot or feed mould, which is why it holds its colour and never needs a seasonal coat of anything.

No seasonal painting, oiling or sealing
Water uptake under 0.6 % at 24 h (EN 317)
No wood fibre, so nothing splinters or cups
33 % recovered composite re-used in production, per the EPD

Comparison

Why it costs more than Trex — and when it is worth it.

Trex is a wood-flour-and-polyethylene board with a protective shell. Tarimatec has no wood in it at all, is fixed on an aluminium sub-frame with concealed clips, and is imported from Valencia. It is a more expensive deck, and it is not the right answer for every budget — so here is the comparison, spec by spec, and a way to price your own project before you talk to anyone.

FAQ

The four questions everybody starts with.

What is Tarimatec actually made of?

PVC bound with rice husk and limestone — a PVC-mineral composite. There is no wood flour in it, which is what separates it from the wood-filled boards sold as “composite” in Canada. It is extruded by Plásticos Viters in Valencia, Spain.

What does it cost?

It sits in the premium-PVC band — above capped composite, alongside the high-end PVC decks. We quote in CAD as a complete system: boards, sub-frame, clips, fascia and a freight band. The calculator gives a material ballpark before you call.

How long does it take to get?

Boards are import-to-order from Valencia — plan 8–12 weeks from a confirmed order. Samples are paid and ship from our Vaughan office in 5–10 business days.

Is there Canadian test data, and who installs it?

The published data is European-standard — EN, UNE and Euroclass; CAN/ULC and CCMC information is available on request for a specific project. Installation is by trained trades: tell us your city and we will introduce one, or brief the contractor you already have.
