Composite Decking
Our rice hull composite decking combines 95% recycled materials with advanced technology to create durable, eco-friendly outdoor spaces. The proprietary formula resists mold, rot, and fading while maintaining a natural wood appearance. With reversible boards capped on all four sides and heat-blocking technology, our composite decking stays cooler and lasts longer than traditional wood or competing composite products.
PVC Decking
Clubhouse PVC decking offers premium performance with military-grade heat resistance and Class A flame spread rating. The advanced material science includes proprietary woodgrain embossing and Korelite technology for extreme impact resistance. Available in two collections with 21 colors, our PVC decking maintains its appearance without painting or sealing for decades.
Construction Boards
TruNorth composite construction boards provide durable, moisture-resistant solutions for various building applications. Made with the same high-quality rice hull formula as our decking products, these boards offer exceptional dimensional stability and resistance to warping or swelling. Ideal for both interior and exterior construction projects requiring long-lasting performance.
Decking Accessories
Complete fastening systems and finishing components ensure professional results with every installation. Our color-matched screws, hidden fasteners, and fascia systems enhance durability while creating seamless aesthetics. The Slide & Go system allows for natural expansion and contraction, while the ConnectClip and EB-TY biscuit fasteners provide secure, long-lasting connections.

Questions
What makes TruNorth composite decking different from other brands?
TruNorth uses 100% Arkansas rice hulls instead of wood fillers, providing superior moisture resistance and mold prevention. Our boards are capped on all four sides with heat-blocking technology and offer a 25-year fade & stain warranty.
How does Clubhouse PVC decking compare to wood?
Clubhouse PVC decking never requires painting, staining, or sealing. It resists mold, rot, and insect damage while maintaining its appearance for decades. The material stays up to 30% cooler than wood and offers superior slip resistance.
Are TruNorth products environmentally friendly?
Yes, our composite decking contains 95% recycled content, and we operate a LEED-certified manufacturing facility with on-site solar power generation. Our products divert significant waste from landfills while reducing dependence on natural resources.
Can I install TruNorth decking myself?
Our decking systems are designed for professional installation but can be tackled by experienced DIYers. We provide detailed installation guides and recommend using our proprietary fastening systems for optimal results and warranty compliance.
What warranty coverage do you offer?
TruNorth Composite Decking includes a 25-year structural warranty plus 25-year fade & stain protection. Clubhouse PVC decking features a limited lifetime warranty with the same fade & stain coverage period.
How do I maintain my TruNorth deck?
Regular cleaning with soap and water is typically sufficient. For tougher stains, we recommend using common household cleaners like Simple Green or Soft Scrub. Avoid using harsh chemicals or pressure washing above 3100 psi.
