Better building material selections can benefit the environment without sacrificing integrity. For example, plastic lumber looks and installs like traditional lumber, but is primarily sourced from post-consumer and post-industrial products. This engineering breakthrough came out of Rutgers University with the […]

Why Use Recycled Plastic Lumber? Manufactured out of high-quality recycled HDPE, recycled plastic lumber is strong, colorfast, durable and can be customized for a wider variety of applications. It is a great choice for projects that are normally affected by harsh weather conditions (snow, wind, extreme cold and heat and heavy moisture). Come learn more […]
