Michigan's leading supplier and distributor of WEARDECK™ Materials.
The last deck board you'll ever need. Structural, durable, safe, comfortable, easy to install and maintain. Manufactured in Ocala, Florida by Owens Corning, WEARDECK™ is a GLAS-POWERED™, wood-free Advantex® Fiberglas™ reinforced high-density polyethylene (HDPE) composite lumber that combines durability and strength. WEARDECK™ offers the highest live load capacity ratings in the industry compared to other composite, HDPE, and PVC boards.
WEARDECK™ structural, synthetic lumber comes in eight different colors. To offer options that optimize their heat-reflective technology beyond their original six colors, WEARDECK™ developed their new Barefoot Collection. They lightened the popular Sand and Gray deck boards to create Barefoot Sand and Barefoot Grey WearDeck, designed specifically to stay cool enough for bare feet in extreme heat.
