NewTechWood® Composite Decking in South Australia
Available through Ridgewood Timbers
Tested by Australia. Build With the Benchmark
Love the warmth of timber but not the upkeep? NewTechWood® composite decking gives you the timeless timber look—without sanding, oiling or splinters. Every board is fully capped 360° (including the grooves) for superior resistance to moisture, stains and UV. Made from 95% recycled materials and proven in harsh Australian conditions, it’s the low-maintenance choice perfect for renovating your old, tired timber deck, or building a new one.
Ridgewood Timbers is your authorised NewTechWood distributor in South Australia—supplying homeowners, builders and landscapers across metro Adelaide and regional SA.
Not All Composites Are Created Equal
Composites are the future of decking—but not all are built to last.
Some boards are only half-capped, leaving grooves exposed. Others cut corners with low-grade recycled materials in the cap.
That’s when the problems start: cupping, swelling, mould, and staining.
NewTechWood is different: every board is fully encapsulated on all sides for complete protection and long-term durability—backed by robust residential and commercial warranties. Whether you’re a tradie or a proud South Australian homeowner, it’s a deck you can trust, tested and proved in the harsh Australia climate.

Living it Up on Top of the Rockford Hotel
Turn your next rooftop, pool, or hospitality project into a showpiece—just like the Novotel Adelaide Rockford. For its rooftop refurbishment, the team used NewTechWood Terrace Decking (US49) and Shadowline Cladding (US31) in Teak, creating two cantilevered deck platforms plus feature walls that stand up to sun, splash and heavy foot traffic.
Supplied locally by Ridgewood Timber and fully capped for long-term durability, it’s a great example of composite decking in Adelaide that looks luxe and works hard.
