Trex is expanding its high-performance Trex Transcend decking collection to include two tropical styles inspired by the beauty of streaked hardwoods. The new offerings feature the superior durability, low-maintenance and eco-friendly qualities of the innovative Transcend collection.The new Trex Transcend colors both feature subtle shading and natural shade variations – creating distinctive hardwood-like streaking and intense, tropical hues that will retain their lush looks for decades. Spiced Rum is a warm, earthy umber, while Lava Rock features rich reddish-black hardwood streaking. These strong new color options will join the collection's four current colors inspired by the great outdoors – Tree House (light brown), Vintage Lantern (deep-burnished bronze), Fire Pit (spicy red) and Gravel Path (pristine grey). Although the new Transcend styles boast the beauty of tropical wood, there are no environmental stresses associated with importing endangered hardwoods. Like all Trex wood-alternative products, Transcend decking contains 95 percent recycled content – contributing to the LEED points of any home. As a company built on green principles and values, Trex saves approximately 600 million pounds of plastic and wood scraps from landfills each year and recycles approximately 1.5 billion plastic grocery bags.The revolutionary Trex Transcend collection first debuted in spring 2010 and is designed to outperform wood, 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. Engineered with an exclusive low-sheen, high-traffic formulation, Trex Transcend decking resists fading, staining, scratching and mold – and will not rot, warp, crack or splinter. Upkeep is hassle-free and requires no sanding, staining or painting. In fact, spills wash off easily with just soap and water.
