We are delighted to announce that after a very complex 4 year Patent Application process, we have been granted our Patent, for an idea which we first had 10 years ago
“ A patent is granted by the
Government to provide the right of ownership to the inventor of a new invention
for a limited period, with legal protection against the use or sale of the
invention without the patent owner’s express permission, and with the right of
enforcement against parties that infringe the patent.
“
Macdeck Landscaping has invented the
World’s first adaptable deck system using a timber deck structure.
Our Patent is now insured against
infringement by others.
Macdeck Landscaping’s invention allows any
traditional landscaping materials – bark, chips, tiles ( Porcelain ), paving
and lawn to be placed on a timber deck structure – at any height off the
ground.
No need for concrete foundations,
blockwork, brickwork, heavy plant or machinery, normally used in the standard
method of construction.
All trialled over 4 years with a 100%
success rate.
We believe it will change the way gardens
can be designed - levelling sloping gardens without the need for retaining
walls, lifting flooded gardens above water levels, sealing balconies and decks,
bringing your inside tile out to your raised deck, reclaiming redundant land.
Our System can be used alongside Softwood
or Composite deck – a paved patio area within your softwood deck.
We can literally put gardens in the air.
We have to say, we would never have got
this far without our Patent Attorney - the extremely talented Bev at OuzmanIP.
The Macdeck system was first thought of after a customer asked us to replace a rotten tiled deck that was constructed, using plywood coated in bitumen, fixed to joists.
This got us thinking - how could you build a timber structure that could provide a platform, for an alternative to standard timber decking. Over a substantial period of time, through research, prototypes and testing we set about designing a system that allows any standard landscaping material to be placed on a timber structure.
Test were carried out both at Strathclyde University’s Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering department and the National Manufacturing Institute for Scotland’s Advanced Forming Research Centre, providing data that allowed us to obtain required information to match, and surpass loadings required, on a standard timber deck.
