This is expected to allow Trex to efficiently process contaminated materials and enhance them to be used for a larger variety of recycled materials. Furthermore, it added two modern specialty premium railing options to its portfolio. Given the positive response upon the launch, these products are expected to start shipping in the second quarter.
