Short answer: Yes. Tarimatec decking is available in Canada exclusively through Zinodeck, the brand operated by Nilly Design Inc. in Vaughan, Ontario. Paid samples ship from Vaughan in 5 to 10 business days, and full boards are import-to-order at 8 to 12 weeks, quoted per project in CAD.

You have probably found Tarimatec the way most Canadians do: a Spanish hotel terrace on a design blog, a colour you cannot find at any lumberyard here, and then a website in Spanish that does not sell to you. So the practical question is not whether the boards are good. It is whether you can actually get them in Ontario, or Alberta, or on an island off British Columbia, and who answers the phone when something goes wrong.

Here is exactly how it works, including the parts that are less convenient than a trip to a big-box store.

Who Zinodeck is

Zinodeck is the brand of Nilly Design Inc., at 9131 Keele St, Suite A4, Vaughan, ON L4K 0G7. The phone number is +1 647-558-0018 and the email is info@zinodeck.com. That is a real address north of Toronto, not a virtual office, and it is where your samples are packed.

Zinodeck is the exclusive Canadian distributor for Tarimatec. Exclusive means what it says: there is no reseller chain to work through, no regional agent taking a second margin, and no other Canadian supplier who can sell you a genuine Tarimatec board. If you have been quoted Tarimatec by somebody else, call us before you pay, because either they are buying from us or they are selling you something else.

Who makes Tarimatec

Tarimatec is made in Valencia, Spain by Plásticos Viters S.A., an extrusion company with more than 65 years in the business. The board is a PVC-mineral composite: PVC, rice husk and limestone in roughly 100:50:40 parts, which the manufacturer calls Ecofiber Stone Composite. It is not a wood-fibre composite and it is not a foamed cellular PVC plank. The rice husk is an agricultural by-product that would otherwise be burned, and per Tarimatec's EPD the process re-uses 33 per cent recovered composite.

That European origin is the source of both the strengths and the honest caveats. The test data is European: wet slip Class 3 / R11 to UNE-ENV 12633, water absorption of 0.59 per cent hollow and 0.38 per cent solid at 24 hours to UNE-EN 317, fire classification Bfl-s1 and Broof(t1) to UNE-EN 13501-1. Tarimatec holds no CAN/ULC S102 flame-spread test and no CCMC evaluation today. If your project needs Canadian-domiciled test documentation, say so at the first phone call and we will tell you straight whether we fit.

How buying actually works

There is no shelf to pull from, so the process is deliberately different from a lumberyard run.

StepWhat happensTiming
1. SamplesYou buy sample boards from the online shop. They are paid, not free, and they ship from Vaughan, Ontario5 to 10 business days
2. QuoteYou send dimensions, finish and profile. Boards, hidden clips and aluminium joists are priced togetherUsually within a few business days
3. OrderBoards are made and imported to order from Valencia, matched to your project rather than pulled from a shelf8 to 12 weeks
4. Delivery and installDelivered to site; installed on aluminium joists at 350 mm spacing with 25 stainless clips per square metreYour installer's schedule

Two things follow from that table. First, the 8 to 12 week lead time is real, and if your build has a hard date in six weeks, we are the wrong supplier for this project. Say so early and nobody wastes a summer. Second, samples matter more here than they do with a stocked brand, because you cannot walk into a showroom in Calgary and see 31 colours under real daylight. Buy the samples. Take them outside. Look at them wet, at four in the afternoon, against your siding.

Pricing is quoted per project in CAD, which is why you will not find a per-foot price anywhere on our site. Board run, profile, finish and substructure move the number too much for a shelf figure to mean anything. If you want the shape of the wider market first, our guide to composite decking cost in Canada sets out what competitors charge publicly.

What is available in Canada, and what is not

This is the part most distributor pages fudge, so we will be blunt. In Canada, Zinodeck supplies Tarimatec decking only.

So when you read a Tarimatec case study where the boards are used as exterior cladding on a hotel façade, admire the work, but understand that in Canada the same board comes to you as decking. If a supplier offers you Tarimatec cladding in Canada, ask hard questions.

The warranty and who administers it

Tarimatec provides a 25-year manufacturer warranty, and Zinodeck administers it in Canada. It excludes damage from weight overload, which in practice means a hot tub or a planter mass that was never in the original design.

The practical value of that arrangement is boring and important: a claim goes to a company in Vaughan that answers in English and French and speaks to the manufacturer directly, rather than to a warranty desk on another continent. There is more on how our range compares to what else is here in our roundup of the best composite decking in Canada, and the ordering detail lives on where to buy Tarimatec in Canada.

Is it worth the wait

Honestly, sometimes not. A straightforward backyard rectangle in Barrie that needs boards by the long weekend should be built with something you can buy on Thursday, and we will say so.

Where the wait earns its keep is when a colour, a wet-slip class or an audited EPD is doing real work in the decision. A pool surround where Class 3 / R11 to UNE-ENV 12633 is a specification line. A designer who has chosen one of 31 colours and does not want to be talked into grey. A submission that needs EPD S-P-07588, verified by Tecnalia and registered with Environdec. For those projects, twelve weeks is a scheduling detail, not an obstacle. Background on the boards themselves sits on the Tarimatec brand and material page.

The recipe is PVC, rice husk and limestone in roughly 100:50:40 parts, which the manufacturer calls Ecofiber Stone Composite.

Where is Tarimatec made?

Tarimatec is made in Valencia, Spain by Plásticos Viters S.A., an extrusion manufacturer with more than 65 years in the business. It is European-engineered and imported to Canada rather than produced here, which also means its test data is to European standards rather than Canadian ones.

Where can I buy Tarimatec in Canada?

Only through Zinodeck, the brand of Nilly Design Inc. at 9131 Keele St, Suite A4, Vaughan, ON L4K 0G7, reachable at +1 647-558-0018 or info@zinodeck.com. Zinodeck is the exclusive Canadian distributor, so there is no reseller chain. Paid samples ship from Vaughan in 5 to 10 business days and boards are import-to-order at 8 to 12 weeks.

Does Tarimatec have an EPD?

Yes. Tarimatec publishes EPD S-P-07588, verified by Tecnalia and registered with EPD International (Environdec). The manufacturer also holds ISO 14001 certification and an Oeko-Tex and AITEX VOC pass (2023AN6040). Per the EPD, 33 per cent recovered composite is re-used in production.

What is the warranty on Tarimatec decking?

Tarimatec provides a 25-year manufacturer warranty, administered in Canada by Zinodeck. It excludes damage caused by weight overload. Claims are handled from Vaughan, Ontario rather than through an overseas warranty desk.

Can I buy Tarimatec cladding or fencing in Canada?

No. Zinodeck supplies Tarimatec decking only in Canada. Cladding, fencing and the AXEL louvre system appear in Spanish projects and on the manufacturer's own website, but they are not available for purchase here and Zinodeck does not quote them.

The sensible first step is a sample in your hand rather than a colour on a screen. Order Tarimatec decking samples, which are paid and ship from Vaughan, Ontario in 5 to 10 business days. When you know the colour and the profile, request a project quote in CAD and we will price boards, clips and joists together, with the lead time stated up front.
