Every material has real strengths — otherwise nobody would buy it. Here's a comparison where the alternatives get their strong sides before we name the weak ones.
Strong: a patented process, the source in Almaty, color through the board, 20+ years with renewal, written guarantees up to 6 years, real people nearby.
Honestly: not the cheapest. Fades without care (oil returns the color). Production capacity is genuinely limited.
Strong: a beautiful, noble wood — genuinely beautiful.
Honestly: shipped from Belarus with no manufacturer warranty — nobody here answers for the board. Count it with the care included: imported ash with just two years of care runs 106,670 ₸/m², while karagach with the full six-year program is 102,500 ₸/m². More coverage — less money.
Strong: cheap to maintain — wash it and forget it. Uniform color out of the box.
Honestly: it isn't wood. No living grain, heats up hard in the sun, and over time it looks like what it is — plastic. It doesn't age beautifully; it just ages.
Strong: the lowest entry price. Real grain.
Honestly: without thermal modification, wood absorbs water: it rots, warps and cracks. That's not a terrace — that's an annual fight for a terrace.
The short version: if you need the minimum budget — look honestly at composite. If you want wood that lives 20+ years with someone answering for it in writing and in person — that's thermo-karagach. Prices are here.
Ash is genuinely beautiful timber. But it is shipped from Belarus with no manufacturer warranty: there is nobody here to answer for the board. Count it with care included: imported ash with two years of care is 106,670 ₸/m², karagach with six years of the program is 102,500 ₸/m². More coverage, less money.
If you want the lowest outlay and wash-and-forget maintenance, look honestly at composite. But it isn't wood: no living grain, it gets very hot in the sun, and in time it looks like what it is. It doesn't age beautifully — it just ages.
Without thermal modification wood absorbs water: it rots, warps and splits. The entry price is the lowest, but what you own isn't a terrace — it's an annual fight for one.
It isn't the cheapest. It fades without care — oil brings the color back. And our production capacity is limited, so sometimes there's a wait.
Come to the showroom — we'll lay the samples side by side, and you'll walk a terrace that's 4 years old.
