Trex Named Most Sustainable Decking Brand
08 Aprile 2024 - 3:05PM
For the 14th year in a row, Trex Company [NYSE:TREX], the world’s
largest manufacturer of high-performance, low-maintenance composite
decking and railing, and a leading brand of outdoor living
products, has been named Green Builder Media’s Sustainable Brand
Leader in the decking category. Trex is the only brand in the
building industry to win top honors in its category every year
since the program started in 2010.
“It is incredibly meaningful and affirming to have our work and
brand consistently recognized by green building experts and trade
professionals who actively seek out high-quality, eco-friendly
products for their projects,” said Leslie Adkins, group vice
president of marketing and ESG development for Trex.
“Sustainability is no longer a ‘nice to have’ but a meaningful
requirement among increasingly eco-conscious consumers. We are
pleased to offer a product that not only outperforms and outlasts
wood but also delivers premium aesthetics and a sustainable option
for builders and homeowners looking to reduce their environmental
impact.”
Trex composite decking is made from up to 95% recycled and
reclaimed material, including a mix of polyethylene plastic film
waste and industrial wood scrap. Each year, the company repurposes
more than one billion pounds of these materials in the making of
its world-famous decking. Over the past three decades, Trex has
upcycled more than five billion pounds of discarded polyethylene
film, making it one of the largest recyclers of flexible plastics
in North America.
Trex’s manufacturing process is also eco-friendly, using
recycled, reclaimed and other waste resources whenever possible. A
closed-loop recirculation system recycles approximately 99% of the
water used in the production of Trex products. The company’s
manufacturing sites use biodegradable, vegetable-based hydraulic
fluid in trucks and trailers, allowing for the recycling or
disposal of used fluids without harming the environment.
“Trex was founded on sustainable practices and is committed to
being environmentally responsible in our processes as well as our
products,” noted Adkins. “We were ‘green’ long before it was
on-trend and we are proud to lead the way for our industry now that
it is becoming table stakes for all.”
To determine the Sustainable Brand Index, Green Builder Media
merges macro market trends with the micro user-specific results of
its annual Reader’s Choice Survey. Scores are based on online and
social brand sentiment, the number of positive mentions about a
brand in correlation with others in the same category, and a survey
of eco-conscious building professionals. Based on these combined
factors, the program recognizes the most sustainable, innovative
and highest performing brands in the green building
industry.
Green Builder Media is North America’s leading media group
focused on green building and responsible growth. The complete
results of the 2024 Readers’ Choice Survey and Brand Index are
published in the March/April issue of Green Builder magazine.
