Sustainable Outdoor Deck Materials

TimberTech Offers Recycled Components for Building Decks

— September 28, 2020 — Eco
Creating an outdoor space with a deck usually requires a trip to the hardware store for timber, but TimberTech materials aim to change this with products that offer a more eco-friendly edge for consumers to appreciate.

The brand offers more sustainable alternatives to conventional timber and even includes such options as capped composite boards that are crafted with 80% recycled materials. These contribute towards saving millions of trees, while also helping to keep almost 300 million pounds of waste from entering landfills.

The TimberTech materials are specially designed to look just like natural wood, but offer a much lower level of maintenance to eliminate the need for stains to be applied. Some of the brand's products also come with a 50 year warranty to help calm concerns about needing to think about replacement for decades.
Trend Themes
1. Eco-friendly Deck Materials - TimberTech offers sustainable alternatives to conventional timber for building decks, reducing the need for deforestation and landfill waste.
2. Recycled Decking Materials - TimberTech's capped composite boards made from 80% recycled materials help save trees and prevent waste from entering landfills.
3. Low-maintenance Decking Solutions - TimberTech materials are designed to look like natural wood and require minimal maintenance, eliminating the need for regular staining.
Industry Implications
1. Home Improvement Retail - Home improvement retailers can market and sell TimberTech's eco-friendly deck materials as a sustainable alternative to traditional timber.
2. Recycling and Waste Management - The recycling and waste management industry can find opportunities in processing and reutilizing waste materials, such as designing systems for recycling composite decking.
3. Outdoor Living and Landscaping - Outdoor living and landscaping businesses can incorporate TimberTech materials in their offerings, providing customers with low-maintenance, durable and environmentally friendly decking options.
