Trex composite decking contains more than 95% recycled content and offers verification by ICC-ES. Trex promotes an environmental stance as part of its commercial appeal in the marketplace. Trex maintains two manufacturing facilities in Winchester, Virginia, and Fernley, Nevada. Trex uses approximately 400 million pounds of recycled plastic film to make its composite decking. To procure the amount of plastic film necessary for production, Trex leans on partnerships with grocery store chains like Albertsons, which has contributed more than 200 million pounds of recycled plastic film to the NexTrex® recycling program. Their manufacturing process combines recycled plastic film, like grocery bags and dry cleaning wrap, with reclaimed wood, some of which is swept from the floors of furniture factories.
