At Trex, we don't just make composite decking -- we invented it. From there, we continue to innovate, engineering what's next in outdoor living to perfect and define the composite deck category. It's what's made us the world's largest manufacturer of wood-alternative decking products. And it's a product both our customers and our team members can be proud of: every board we make is more than 95% recycled materials, including reclaimed wood and recycled plastic film. Build a career you can be proud of. The work you put in, the ideas you bring, the rewards you earn—when you’ve got pride in what you create, it’s all worth the effort. As the industry leader, we feel it. And you will, too.

Our story began in the late 1980s when the outcome of government recycling programs created steadily growing mountains of recycled plastics. We saw opportunity in this landscape of overabundance, and through creative ingenuity, POLYWOOD® was born. Our low-maintenance, recyclable lumber was welcomed as a premier wood alternative in outdoor furniture with its all-weather endurance, improved aesthetics and exceptional durability. One of the first products developed was the Classic Adirondack, which remains a favorite among our customers today. Since then, we have expanded our product lines to include additional adirondack styles as well as dining, lounges, deep seating, benches and swings. Our goal is to deliver a quality product our customers want in a timely fashion. To achieve this vision, we developed state-of-the-art technology and lean manufacturing processes that have minimized our waste stream and ensured our products are built quickly and accurately. Our products are assembled, packaged and delivered all within days of receiving an order, satisfying the customer while saving warehouse space. Our continual growth and success is fueled by a highly collaborative culture. We support a cross-departmental atmosphere where employees are encouraged to utilize all of their skills to their full potential. Together, we keep a constant focus on the future and promise to create and deliver thoughtfully designed products made in the USA.

VAST is dedicated to developing economically viable and socially responsible alternatives to concrete for the green building construction market. It has invented and patented material science and manufacturing technology to create a composite material that is one-third the weight of concrete — made almost entirely from recycled scrap tires and recycled plastics. VAST is a pioneer in the green building market and is leading the creation of an entirely new industry: composite masonry. VAST was acquired by AZEK Building Products (a subsidiary of CPG International) in December 2012.
