New Outdoor Innovations Make It Easier Than Ever To Build With Trex®

Leader in Outdoor Living Delivers Simplicity and Style in Expanded Product Portfolio

Nashville, Tenn. (Booth #1127), October 26, 2017 – From decking and substructure to railing, lighting and accessories, Trex Company has something for nearly every aspect of outdoor living. The world’s number one decking and railing brand, and leader in high-performance, low-maintenance outdoor living products, has expanded its robust product portfolio with some key offerings designed to make it easier than ever to build with Trex. The company’s latest innovations will be on display at the 2017 DeckExpo and Remodelling Show in Nashville, Tenn., October 25-27, 2017.

“Trex offers the industry’s most comprehensive and collaborative portfolio of outdoor living products,” said Jim Cline, president and CEO of Trex Company. “As we continue to expand upon these offerings, our goal is to provide products that not only deliver premium aesthetics and performance but that are easy for deck installers and contractors to work with, install and recommend.”

Trex® Signature™ Railing Offerings

Responding to growing demand for durable and attractive aluminium railing options, Trex® Signature™ Aluminium Railing provides unparalleled strength and durability – and now, even more design options. The popular railing line now includes a cocktail rail configuration, creating a top flat surface that’s ideal for outdoor spaces meant for entertaining.

Equal parts form and function, Trex® Signature™ railing features a powder coating that allows the material to retain its colour and resist corrosion, and is backed by a 25-year Limited Warranty. It also is among the only aluminium offerings in the industry that can be curved.  

Trex® Signature™ railing also is available with the added functionality and aesthetics of the Trex® Outdoor Lighting^™ collection, which includes several new components to effectively add ambience and safety to any outdoor space. The Trex® Signature™ Post Cap uses a new light ring design to spread light in all directions, while the Post Lamp, installed on the side of Trex® Signature™'s aluminium post, casts a warm, downward glow. When not in use, these components are designed to blend in with the railing for a clean, unfettered look.

All Trex® Signature™ lighting fixtures are powered by reliable and energy efficient engines from leading LED-manufacturer CREE^®. In addition, the low-voltage lights are extremely durable, as well as weather-proof and salt-air resistant – ensuring that they will retain a “like new” appearance for years to come.

The Best in Outdoor Living

Other Trex products to be highlighted at the 2017 DeckExpo and Remodelling Show include:

• Trex Select^® Railing – Select railing offers easy installation and brings low-maintenance peace-of-mind to any patio or deck. Made of composite, Trex Select railing won’t rot, warp or splinter, and is backed by Trex’s exclusive 25-Year Limited Residential Warranty. New for this season, the budget-friendly railing also features a cocktail rail configuration and capability, allowing for more versatility and utility in outdoor living designs.

• Trex Transcend^® Decking – The revolutionary Trex Transcend collection is designed to outperform wood, early-generation composite and PVC for decades. Each deck board features a proprietary nine-element surface formulation that produces a natural, wood-like grain pattern with a lustrous satin finish that feels comfortable underfoot. Available in 10 rich, saturated colours, Trex Transcend decking resists fading, staining, scratching and mould – and will not rot, warp, crack or splinter. Upkeep is hassle-free and requires no sanding, staining or painting. In fact, food and drink spills wash off easily with just soap and water.

• Trex Elevations^® Steel Deck Framing System – Offering a superior solution to traditional lumber, Trex Elevations makes it possible for contractors to increase a deck’s longevity and value, while improving the overall appearance both above and below with a substructure constructed entirely of steel. Unlike wood, which can warp, rot, twist, split or decay over time, exterior-grade Trex Elevations features a carbon steel core surrounded by three layers of protection, ensuring each critical joist, beam and ledger connection holds up to the outdoor elements for decades. Unlike interior-grade steel, Trex Elevations is the only steel deck framing system that is code-listed for exterior use, supported by the CCRR0186 code compliance research report.
