Build an attractive, long-lasting boundary with our recycled plastic fencing boards. Designed to recreate the appearance of traditional timber picket fencing, these solid plastic fence slats are resistant to moisture, rot, mould and changing weather conditions.

Available in brown, grey and black, our wood-look plastic picket fence boards are suitable for gardens, homes, schools, parks, farms and commercial properties throughout the UK. They can be cut, drilled and shaped using standard woodworking tools, providing a practical and low-maintenance alternative to timber fencing.

Plastic Fencing Boards and Picket Fence Slats

Our plastic fencing boards offer the traditional appearance of timber picket fencing without the rot, regular treatment and ongoing maintenance associated with wooden boards.

Manufactured from solid recycled plastic, these durable fence slats are designed for long-term use in gardens, schools, parks, farms and commercial environments. Their wood-look finish provides the warmth and character of timber while delivering the weather resistance and low maintenance of recycled plastic.

The range includes different picket profiles and colour options, allowing you to create a plastic fence that complements its surroundings and suits the style of your project.

Why Choose Recycled Plastic Fencing Boards?

Timber fencing is continually exposed to rain, moisture, sunlight and changing temperatures. Without regular treatment, wooden boards can eventually rot, split, warp or deteriorate.

Recycled plastic fencing boards do not absorb moisture or rot like timber. They are UV-stabilised and resistant to mould, parasites and pathogens, making them particularly suitable for outdoor environments.

The benefits include:

• Manufactured from recycled plastic
• Resistant to moisture and rot
• UV-stabilised for outdoor use
• Resistant to mould, pathogens and parasites
• No painting, staining or preservative treatments required
• Easy to clean and maintain
• Solid, durable construction
• Wood-look surface finish
• Suitable for cutting, drilling and shaping
• Available in several colours and profiles
• Recyclable at the end of their usable life

Plastic Picket Fence Board Options

Our plastic picket fence boards are available with different top profiles, allowing you to choose the finish that best suits your boundary.

Flat-top boards provide a clean, simple appearance suited to contemporary and traditional gardens. Round-top plastic fence slats recreate the familiar appearance of classic picket fencing.

Available colours include:

• Brown
• Grey
• Black

Brown plastic fencing boards provide a natural timber-inspired appearance. Grey boards offer a more contemporary finish, while black plastic fence slats create a bold contrast against greenery and modern landscaping.

Where Can Plastic Fence Slats Be Used?

Recycled plastic fence boards are suitable for domestic, agricultural, commercial and public environments, including:

• Family homes and gardens
• Cottages and rural properties
• Front garden picket fences
• Garden boundaries
• Decorative fencing
• Schools and playgrounds
• Public parks
• Farms and agricultural properties
• Commercial and industrial sites
• Paths, seating areas and planted spaces

The boards can be used to create complete fence panels or incorporated into a bespoke fencing design using suitable rails, posts and fixings.

Easy to Cut, Drill and Shape

Plastic fencing boards can be worked using standard woodworking or metalworking tools. They can be drilled, cut and shaped to suit the dimensions and design of your fencing project.

This makes the boards suitable for made-to-measure installations while helping minimise unnecessary material waste.

Although recycled plastic can be worked in a similar way to timber, it expands and contracts more as temperatures change. Suitable expansion gaps must therefore be incorporated into the installation.

When securing the plastic fence slats:

• Allow sufficient space for thermal expansion
• Use appropriately sized or oversized fixing holes
• Avoid overtightening screws
• Use stainless-steel or treated external-grade fixings
• Follow the relevant installation guidance for the selected boards
• Ensure heavy fence sections are properly supported

Solid recycled plastic boards are heavier than comparable timber slats. Completed panels should be supported appropriately, either from the ground or with suitable central support, depending on the design and dimensions.

A Low-Maintenance Alternative to Timber Fencing

Plastic fencing boards require very little ongoing maintenance. The colour runs throughout the material, so the boards do not require repainting or staining to preserve their appearance.

Routine cleaning is generally all that is needed to remove dirt and surface marks. Because the boards do not rot like timber, they are suitable for damp ground, exposed gardens and other locations where wooden fencing may require frequent repair or replacement.

Sustainable Plastic Fencing

Our recycled plastic fence slats make productive use of recovered material while providing a durable product with a long usable life.

Choosing recycled plastic fencing can reduce the demand for timber and avoid the need for repeated preservative treatments. The material can also be recycled again at the end of its usable life where appropriate recycling facilities are available.
