Find definitive engineering answers regarding 100% watertightness, static load calculation, millimeter cut-to-size ordering, anti-slip ratings, and 30-year warranty coverage.
Yes, absolutely. The patented Safe-Clickâ„¢ tongue-and-groove joint forms an engineered interlocking labyrinth that prevents rainwater from penetrating between boards. Integrated drainage channels guide 100% of rainwater along a 1.5% minimum slope directly into perimeter collection gutters. No perishable rubber seals or silicone caulking are required.
Profile S (13 mm) is ultra-slim, designed specifically for refurbishment projects with low door thresholds and limited installation heights where 40 mm cannot fit. Its maximum support span is 500 mm.
Profile L (40 mm) is a heavy-duty structural profile with a high section modulus, capable of spanning up to 800 mm between joists and withstanding commercial live loads up to 5.0 kN/m². This wide span saves up to 40% on substructure framing.
No. Aluminium has exceptionally high thermal conductivity ($lambda approx 200 ext{ W/m}cdot ext{K}$), meaning it rapidly dissipates solar heat throughout its cross-section and into the sub-frame rather than storing it on the surface like WPC plastic or dark stone tiles. Even in peak summer, it remains comfortable for barefoot walking.
Instead of cutting boards on site with hand tools, simply enter your desired millimeter dimension (e.g. 3,845 mm) on the product page or configurator. Our production facility precision-cuts your profiles on CNC double-mitre saws (+4.50 € per cut) with burr-free edges, ready for immediate installation.
All AVA profiles are certified to DIN 51130 Class R11 with displacement space V4. This certifies them for wet-barefoot walking in commercial swimming pool surrounds, hotel balconies, and exposed exterior fire-escape stairs.
