MexyTech vs NewTechWood
MexyTech vs NewTechWood: Composite Decking Compared
Both MexyTech and NewTechWood sit in the premium end of composite decking, and both are capped, so this is a closer comparison than most. The differences are in brand position, range and how you buy. Here is an honest side-by-side.
The quick version
NewTechWood is a well-established premium composite brand, known for its UltraShield capping and a broad colour range across decking and cladding. A strong, recognised product in the premium tier.
MexyTech (the Suprotect range Allmat supplies) is also a co-extruded capped composite, sold under the MexyTech brand with a manufacturer warranty and a track record on large international projects. The appeal is premium capped construction with keen value and local South Australian availability.
Because both are capped, you are comparing two boards from the same tier, so it really does come down to colour, price, warranty and availability.
Construction: both capped, both built to last
The most important thing about a composite board is whether it is capped, and both of these are. NewTechWood uses its UltraShield co-extruded cap; MexyTech Suprotect uses a co-extruded cap over the top and sides. In both cases the polymer shell shields the wood-plastic core from moisture and UV, so the board resists fading and staining and holds colour. If you want the background on why this matters, see our capped vs uncapped guide.
Colour, warranty, price and availability
NewTechWood is known for a wide colour palette. MexyTech Suprotect comes in six timber-look colours (Teak, Dark Grey, Antique, Ashwood, Walnut and IPE) with a manufacturer warranty. On price and availability, MexyTech through Allmat is positioned as keen value carried locally in South Australia, so it can be ready for collection or delivery without a long wait. Confirm current colours and warranty terms for whichever board you shortlist.

MexyTech vs NewTechWood FAQs
Both are capped, co-extruded composite boards, which is the construction that matters most. NewTechWood is a well-known premium brand with its UltraShield capping and a wide colour range. MexyTech Suprotect is a capped board Allmat supplies locally, and the appeal is capped quality with strong value and South Australian availability. For most decks it comes down to colour, price and how soon you can get it.
UltraShield is NewTechWood’s capping technology: a protective polymer shell co-extruded around the board core to guard against moisture, UV, staining and insects. MexyTech Suprotect uses the same idea, a co-extruded cap over the top and sides, which is why both sit in the capped, premium tier rather than the budget uncapped one.
NewTechWood promotes a fully wrapped (all-sides) cap. MexyTech Suprotect is a co-extruded capped board with the shell over the top and sides. Capping details vary by product and range, so check the exact board you are considering. Either way, both are capped, which is the key point for fade and stain resistance.
