MoistureShield Decking

This is a truly ‘Green’ decking product.

Get to know our unique recycling process with a few green FYI’s:

  • LEED for Homes (v1.11a) awards points to projects for using Environmentally Preferable Products like MoistureShield® Decking.
    • Section MR2-B provides 0.5 point for including a deck containing 25% post consumer recycled content
  • MoistureShield decking and accessories are made with:
    • 30% Post-consumer recycled content
    • 60% Pre-consumer recycled content
    • 90% Total recycled content
  • MoistureShield has a post-consumer recycled content equivalent of 60% or about two-and-a-half times the requirement.
  • Double Points: USGBC staff have suggested that builders request an additional 0.5 point for innovation and going beyond the requirements based on MoistureShield’s high post-consumer recycled content.
  • Conserves resources for the future.
  • No new trees are cut down to make MoistureShield Decking.
  • Our process stops over 270 million pounds of trash from entering landfills every year – that is 36 football fields of trash, each stacked 10 ft. high!
  • We save over 5.3 trillion BTUs of energy per year.
  • We are concerned with skyrocketing gas prices as much as you. Our process saves 1 million gallons a year.
  • Not only does a 12´ x 12´ MoistureShield deck save 110 gallons of gas, but it also reduces greenhouse gas by 619 lbs. CO2 equivalent.
  • The plastic and wood A.E.R.T. recycles annually is comparable to taking 54,000 vehicles off the road.
