What is POLYWOOD lumber made of?
Genuine POLYWOOD lumber is made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), sourced from post-industrial and post-consumer recycled materials, such as milk jugs, detergent bottles, and other common household items.
99% of production scraps are reground and recycled back into the manufacturing process, contributing to a closed-loop production system.
