TriMax - A Superior Construction Material TriMax^TM Lumber is an award-winning construction material that is being hailed as the lumber of choice for municipal, commercial and residential applications. This innovative material, made from recycled plastic and reinforced by fiberglass, is uniquely suited for outdoor structural applications that require superior strength, exceptional durability and ease-of-use.

TriMax Lumber offers a real alternative to treated wood and all the inherent problems associated with it. When used in outdoor applications, traditional treated wood requires costly maintenance, regular replacement and continual resealing because it constantly being battered by the forces of nature. While chemically treated lumber typically lasts 4-10 years, TriMax Lumber stands up to the forces of nature with a guaranteed life of 50 years.

Trimax - The Superior Alternative to Treated Wood TriMax Lumber received the 1996 Nova Award from the Construction Innovation Forum, a group that recognizes innovative solutions, processes or products that improve the quality, efficiency and cost-effectiveness of construction. It's no wonder this high-performance recycled plastic lumber is gaining so much ground in outdoor applications.

TriMax Lumber is manufactured according to a patented process that adds fiberglass to a blend of recycled plastics. The addition of fiberglass makes TriMax Lumber stronger than other plastic lumber products and the most commonly used treated wood products. Its exceptional strength makes TriMax Lumber the construction material of choice for outdoor structural applications.

The plastic and fiberglass mixture is heated and continuously extruded and then formed into the desired lumber shape, cooled and cut to the customer specified length. The continuous extrusion process produces plastic lumber with a high-density solid outer layer, and a less dense cellular inner core - both favorable characteristics for strength and weight.

TriMax - A Versatile, Cost-Effective Alternative TriMax Lumber is remarkably versatile and easy to use. It can be manufactured in a wide variety of sizes and performance grades, and is available in any transportable length. It has the weight, feel, appearance and working characteristics of wood, and can be installed using standard woodworking tools, nails and other wood fastening devices.

Its unique properties make this reinforced recycled lumber ideally suited for many outdoor applications. Projects undertaken over the past decade built with TriMax Lumber include seashore and wetland boardwalks, seawalls, floating docks, shellfish beds, piers, bulkheads, bin boards, sign posts, playground equipment, as well as animal pens, fencing and bedding.
