What Outdure does
Outdure International Ltd is an Australian-founded building materials company that develops and distributes the QwickBuild modular aluminum deck framing and support system. The system replaces traditional timber substructures with a configurable, patent-protected aluminum profile range (A100-A150) engineered for ultra-low, low, mid-height and elevated deck applications across all common substrates, including waterproof membranes, concrete, pavers and natural ground. Its hardware portfolio is complemented by proprietary surface options: composite decking (ResortDeck, CasaDeck), exterior full-body vitrified porcelain tile ranges (Cascade, Sierra, Stonehaven), and synthetic turf (UltraPlush), along with accessories such as QwickGrates ventilation drainage components.
The company's core go-to-market combines direct sales (US phone/email) and a free design and quantification service built around DeckPlanr, a browser-based layout and material takeoff tool. Hardware reaches end markets through a tiered distribution network: Parkside operates 10 warehouse locations across the United States, QwickBuild framing is shipped internationally across 15 countries, and proprietary surface materials are distributed regionally in Australia, New Zealand and Fiji. Customers span residential homeowners and trade installers, plus commercial and institutional segments including multi-residential developments, aged care, education, hospitality, public spaces and high-rise rooftops.
Outdure monetizes primarily through hardware sales of QwickBuild framing components (profiles, brackets, connectors, pedestals), proprietary surface materials, and bundled free design/quantification services that act as a conversion mechanism into product sales. Pricing is quote-based rather than publicly disclosed. The company has operated for over 20 years, completed 12,000+ installed projects across 15 countries, holds Global GreenTag Level C certification, and recently secured the NADRA 2025 Overall First Place award validating QwickBuild in the US decking market.

Outdure competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Trex Company: The dominant US composite decking brand with extensive dealer network and marketing budget. Competes with Outdure's ResortDeck composite line on residential decking surfaces and increasingly on full deck systems.
- NewTechWood: Composite decking and siding manufacturer with global distribution and a comparable ultra-shield capped composite technology to Outdure's UltraShield composite boards. Competes on surface durability and warranty positioning.
- Fiberon: Composite decking manufacturer serving residential and commercial channels with established distribution. Competes with Outdure's composite decking surfaces in the same end-customer pool.
- TimberTech (AZEK): Major composite and PVC decking manufacturer serving residential and commercial channels. A broad incumbent competing with Outdure on surface materials and increasingly on framing integration.
Direct peers
- Silca System: Provides an engineered substructure grid (originally polymer) that supports pavers over natural ground. Directly comparable to QwickBuild's modular substructure approach for low-height and ground-level deck installations.
- Bison Innovative Products: Manufactures adjustable pedestals and paver support systems for rooftop decks, plazas, and low-height applications. Highly comparable to Outdure's QwickBuild low-height offering targeting rooftop and balcony deck projects in North America.
- Eterno Ivica: Produces a wide range of adjustable pedestals for raised floors, pavers, and decking on terraces and rooftops. Directly comparable pedestal-based approach for low-to-mid height deck applications.
- Archatrak: Supplies pedestals and structural supports for paver and timber decks on rooftops and balconies, with similar low-height and membrane-protection use cases to QwickBuild's rooftop offering.
- Buzon Pedestal International: Specializes in screwjack pedestals for elevated paver and timber decking on rooftops, terraces, and pool surrounds. Overlaps with Outdure's elevated QwickBuild system and competes in commercial plaza and rooftop segments globally.
Emerging players
- DekTek Tiles: Manufactures concrete deck tiles supported by a proprietary pedestal/grate system for elevated decks. Comparable niche focus on modular, low-maintenance outdoor flooring surfaces and structural supports.
