SPAN FLOORS launches wide-plank Terrafina decking

17 Apr 2026 CW Team

SPAN FLOORS has launched Terrafina Exterior Decking, a wide-plank outdoor solution designed to create seamless visual continuity between indoor and outdoor spaces.

A key highlight of the system is its 400 mm wide planks with lengths exceeding three metres, significantly larger than conventional decking formats. The wider dimensions reduce visible joints, delivering a cleaner and more architectural surface.

Terrafina also introduces soft pastel wood tones, addressing a gap in outdoor materials where darker shades have traditionally dominated. The palette enables designers to extend interior flooring aesthetics to terraces, balconies and pool decks.

Engineered using composite materials, the decking is designed for durability, offering resistance to moisture, temperature variations, abrasion and insects. Features such as slip resistance, splinter-free surfaces and concealed fixing systems enhance usability and finish quality.

Commenting on the launch, Satinder Chawla, Managing Director, SPAN FLOORS, said, “Terrafina combines wider plank proportions with softer wood tones to help architects create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.”

The product is available across major Indian cities through the company’s dealer network and flagship showrooms in New Delhi.
