King® StarBoard®
King StarBoard is the original and leading marine-grade high-density polyethylene sheet. Starboard offers exceptional consistency and flatness through it’s proprietary manufacturing process. Starboard has a matte finish on both sides and is environmentally stabilized to withstand the harshest outdoor conditions.
King StarBoard never needs to be painted or refinished, works like wood, and is simply fabricated using common woodworking tools and techniques. These properties make StarBoard ideal for a variety of marine applications from replacing wood, to building boat components and furniture.
