For centuries, water wreaked havoc on outdoor building materials — splintering docks, warping marinas, and turning boardwalks into something that looked like a chewed-up dog toy.
Then Trex came along.
Durable. Beautiful. Sustainable. And best of all, submersible. Suddenly, water wasn’t the one winning. We were. Saltwater, lake water, rainwater, pool water — Trex handles them all.
But Trex isn’t just tough, it’s eco-friendly too. Made from up to 95% recycled materials, it’s a choice you can feel good about. Mother Nature’s happy. Father Time is impressed. And yes, even your carbon footprint will thank you.
No contest.
Let's Talk About Your Feet. Awkward, But Worth It.
Trex engineers don’t just think about conquering water. They’re constantly thinking on their feet — and about yours.
Thanks to SunComfortable™ heat-mitigating technology*, Trex is making decking feel even more civilized, on the kind of days that melt popsicles before they find your mouth.
SunComfortable™ decking stays cooler* to the touch on the hottest days. So even your flip-flops will keep their cool.
*Our SunComfortable™ products with heat-mitigating technology are designed to be cooler than most other composite decking products of a similar color. Although engineered to be more comfortable, they can still get hot to the touch when direct sunlight and high temperatures converge for extended periods of time. On such days, care should be taken.

*Trex decking with heat-mitigating technology can still get hot to the touch when direct sunlight and high temperatures converge for extended periods of time. We therefore recommend shoes, socks, and pet booties, so that you and yours can enjoy living on your deck as much as we’ve enjoyed innovating it.
Marinas and Math:
The Numbers Don't Lie.
Since 2010, over two million square feet of Trex decking has been installed by TrexPro contractors on docks in saltwater and freshwater areas.
That’s an area the size of 35 football fields.
Meanwhile on the other side of the globe, we’ve installed our largest Trex project to date — an 8.5-mile-long boardwalk — in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia along the Red Sea — which we’ve heard can be seen from outer space.
But truth be told, it’s about more than just square footage to us — it’s early mornings when the water is still, the hum of a boat engine ready to go. It’s kids armed with fishing poles dreaming of their first big catch. It’s sunsets that leave everyone speechless and remind you why you’re there in the first place.

Since 2010, our independent deck-building partners have laid over two million square feet of Trex decking on docks in salt and freshwater areas.
That’s an area the size of 35 football fields.
Here’s the thing, this only represents docks registered by Trex Pros — the ones we know about. Imagine what that number would be if we knew of all the docks not built by Trex Pros.

Walking The Walk. It Never Gets Old.
With roughly 48 million people visiting the Jersey Shore every summer, it’s safe to say the boardwalks that line the beaches have seen it all. First steps. First loves. And countless storms that have torn through everything without calling before barging right in.
When Hurricane Sandy roared ashore in 2012, the devastation was staggering. But New Jersey rebuilt. And when they did, they replaced 80% of their boardwalks with Trex decking—because strength matters when it’s more than a boardwalk you’re holding up.
The beauty of Trex decking is in how well it stands up year after year to all of the elements, even the human ones.
The proof is in New Jersey’s 48 million visitors who comfortably walk all over us every summer.

After over 10 years, I can say the boardwalk decking has not only exceeded our expectations, but it actually looks like it was just recently installed!
Tough And Submersible? You Can Say That Again.
Gators. Crocs. Snakes. And up to 65 inches of rainfall per year. You won’t find a more challenging environment than Florida’s Everglades.
This explains why 25 years since our first installation, the Everglades National Park again chose Trex to add another mile of boardwalk over this swampy, subtropical wonder of the world. Given there are many choices out there, we think this says it all.
From the scorching summer sun to the rainy season when the land is nearly entirely submerged in water, we were the only brand they looked to and we’re glad they did.
We’ll go out on a Mangrove limb and say they are too.

A Deck That Gets Better With Age?
Of course not.
But if you ask the Mondavi family, they’ll tell you their South Carolina deck and dock look as good as the day they were installed. Built a decade ago, they have survived hurricanes, salt spray, high tides, gale-force winds, and more than a few spilled sodas and chardonnays.
Trex isn’t just for coastal homes, though. From docks to marinas to your own backyard, Trex holds its ground, even in the toughest conditions.
Water has met its match. Trex.
