Fiberon, a leading manufacturer of PVC and composite decking, is so confident in the performance of its Horizon composite and Sensibuilt PVC decking products that it now offers the industry's first 10-year stain and fade resistance warranty.
Fiberon's ultra low maintenance Sensibuilt PVC Decking.
"More than ever, consumers are looking hard for value in their deck materials over time," said George Drummond, owner of Casa Decks, a specialty design/build decking company located in southeastern Virginia. "My clients have done a good bit of research on various products and know the stain and fade drawbacks of alternative decking. Since we started using almost exclusively alternative decking 10 years ago, we've dropped a few top-end decking products because of those issues. This warranty -- not offered by any other decking manufacturer -- gives me and my clients a high level of confidence that Fiberon's promise of low-maintenance is reliable."
Both Horizon and Sensibuilt decking products offer stain and fade resistance unmatched by other deck materials in the industry, providing decking contractors a superior offering and homeowners the benefit of high performance with easy, ultra-low maintenance. In addition to the new, exclusive 10-year stain and fade resistance warranty, Horizon decking is backed by a 20-year overall performance warranty and Sensibuilt decking is backed with a limited lifetime warranty.
"Homeowners are looking for low-maintenance enhancement to their outdoor living spaces and contractors need assurance their product recommendations won't backfire years down the road," said Doug Mancosh, CEO and owner of Fiber Composites LLC, parent to the Fiberon family. "Many current decking manufacturers talk about stain and color fade resistance but offer no warranty for either. Horizon and Sensibuilt are quality products that enhance deck builders' craftsmanship and provide a level of performance no other PVC or composite decking can match."
Fiberon's commitment to using science to drive innovation has produced two unique surface enhancements: patent-pending PermaTech surface for Horizon composite decking and patent-pending Lumenite fusion-bonded coating for Sensibuilt cellular PVC decking. These innovations allow for superior levels of stain, fade, scratch and mold resistance that outperforms traditional PVC and composite decking, allowing homeowners to focus on enjoying their deck rather than maintenance.
