Decking Innovations Earn Awards

- Trex's Transcend Lineage decking has been a notable award-winner, receiving accolades such as the ADEX Platinum Award for Design Excellence and being named one of Green Builder Media's 2023 Sustainable Products of the Year. The company's luxury Trex Signature decking, introduced in 2023, also earned a Golden Hammer Award from Hardware + Building Supply Dealer magazine for its realistic wood aesthetic. - The company's commitment to sustainability is a key factor in its recognition, having been named one of America's Most Responsible Companies by Newsweek and one of the 100 Best ESG Companies by Investor's Business Daily. Trex manufactures its decking from 95% recycled and reclaimed materials and has diverted over five billion pounds of polyethylene plastic from landfills in the past three decades. - For six consecutive years, from 2021 to 2026, Trex has been named 'America's Most Trusted Outdoor Decking' based on a 12-month survey of nearly 4,000 Americans conducted by Lifestory Research. - The broader wood-plastic composite (WPC) market is experiencing significant growth, with forecasts predicting the market size to increase by $6.18 billion between 2023 and 2028. This growth is driven by the demand for durable, low-maintenance building materials and a shift toward sustainable construction. - WPC materials, like those used by both Trex and Xiangying New Materials, offer enhanced durability and resistance to moisture, rot, insects, and UV damage compared to traditional wood. This longevity reduces the need for replacements and the use of chemical treatments for maintenance. - North America holds the largest share of the global WPC market, accounting for 51.5% of revenue in 2025, largely due to renovation trends and the growing popularity of outdoor living spaces. The building and construction sector is the dominant application for WPC, making up 72% of the total revenue share in 2024.
