Why Aluminum for your deck?
AridDek is a precision extruded aluminum product. Extruding is the process of pressure forcing heated aluminum through a die so that it takes on the die's cross-sectional shape. Extrusions create a seamless product to exact specifications with very close tolerances. When you choose AridDek Aluminum Decking you gain all of the benefits of aluminum, while maintaining dry beneath deck space.
