The TruNorth® Difference:
- 5.7x more resistant to abrasion than Trex and CPG (Timbertech) in ASTM 4060-10 Abrasion Testing, 8x more than Azek
- Reduces heat retention from sun by 20 degrees Fahrenheit compared with other composite decking materials by using proprietary heat blocking technology
- Reversible board with wood grain on both sides. Other brands have grooves on bottom making this not possible.
- The Polyethylene (PE) Cap means same expansion and contraction as the PE core, unlike many other composite boards that experience delamination
- 100 % Arkansas Rice Hulls, no wood saw dust is used - Rice hulls absorb very little moisture
- We have 12 colors available, unlike other brands that may only have a handful
- Outer shell (Capping) on all four sides
- Made from 95%+ Recycled Material
- Rice hulls will not harbor mold or fungus
- Rice hulls will not burn or decay easily
- Been in the market for decades, in harsh climates
- Made in North America
- All of our board types are very high quality with a great 25 year warranty - there are other competitive boards on the market that may be slightly cheaper, but be wary of those - they are softer, may include wood product making them prone to rotting, are not reversible and will scratch easily.
