| The material used in the CWS DECKING SYSTEM
is
developed to be part of the solutions to the ecological problems facing
our earth. Every year, millions of acres of forests are being
cut. Oil reserves, the raw material for the production of plastics,
are being rapidly depleted.
The CWS DECKING SYSTEM uses material designed as a substitute for wood and plastic. It is made of post consumer polyethylene waste such as detergent bottles and other recycled plastics. The filler content is derived from cellulose materials including wood sawdust, peanut shells, sugar cane, etc. The polyethylene waste and cellulose particles are compounded and extruded into hollow, rigid decking boards, containing 98% recycled post consumer waste. Truly a material for 21st century! |

The CWS DECKING SYSTEM features a surface pleasing to the eye and gentle to your feet. Max Burns, the author of "THE DOCK MANUAL" writes in the September/October 1998 edition of COTTAGE LIFE: "But does it look like wood? Begrudgingly, I have to admit that the brushed exposed surface (which provides traction and a surface for paint and stain to bond should you want to change colour} does come very close."
