Kezo I considered composite but the price is really high plus I had seen online people complaining of the colour fading over the years so plumbed for timber.
Depends what and where you buy to how it fades, as it looses oils and lighter colours are better however, lifespan can be double that of hardwood decking and 3-4 times that of softwood decking, added to no maintainance over the years.
