Trex® Debuts New Board Profiles and Reduced Bundle Packs

Trex® recently announced the debut of one-inch board profiles on two of its best-selling collections – Trex Accents® and Trex Contours®. These enhancements were the direct result of feedback from Trex's industry partners and set the stage for larger changes to the overall Trex product portfolio – including a ground-breaking new decking and railing line – which will be unveiled at the company's Distributor Meeting this week.

“The transition to new board profiles on Accents and Contours will simplify our decking offerings and provide greater design flexibility to mix and match all of our product lines,” said Adam Zambanini, senior product manager of decking at Trex, the nation's largest manufacturer of wood-alternative decking, railing and fencing products.

In addition to the new board profiles, Trex also will be the first decking manufacturer to offer reduced-size product bundles – transitioning from a bundle size of 96 pieces per unit to 48 pieces per unit. This change will create increased product turns for Trex’s industry partners. Distributors will benefit from efficiencies in material handling and reduced in-transit material handling damage – while dealers will be able to stock more Trex product without increasing their inventory position.

Said Zambanini, “We believe the reduced packs will provide greater bundling opportunities for our distributors and dealers – allowing them to move more product in less time while increasing productivity and profitability.”

With these enhancements, all Trex decking will now measure 1” x 5.5” and be compatible with the Trex HideawayTM hidden fastening system. Additionally, Trex Contours will have a square-edged profile and a grooved edge profile, as opposed to its former scalloped underside. The updated boards currently are available at both Trex manufacturing facilities in Winchester, Va., and Fernley, Nev.

Trex Accents offers a subtle, refined wood grain pattern while Trex Contours features a bold, dramatic grain. Naturally soft and comfortable to the touch, both collections are eco-friendly and low-maintenance, and provide superior durability and wear resistance.

“We are confident that these enhancements to the Accents and Contours products will provide more flexibility and design options to consumers, as well as more convenience and efficiency to distributors and dealers,” said Zambanini.
