Trex Company Publishes 2024 Sustainability Report Highlighting How Circular Innovation Is Adding Value to the Business

Trex Company, Inc. (NYSE: TREX), the world’s leading manufacturer of high-performance, wood-alternative decking and railing, today announced the release of its 2024 Sustainability Report. The comprehensive report details the company’s continued leadership in materials circularity, environmental stewardship, and social responsibility—core to Trex’s identity since its founding more than 30 years ago.

“I am proud of how Trex has seamlessly integrated sustainability into our business—not as an add-on, but as a core strategy,” said Bryan Fairbanks, President and CEO of Trex Company. “Our sustainability program is built into our distinctive brand, enhances resilience, and drives stronger returns for our shareholders. This makes sustainability a win-win for both our business and society at large.”

The company’s 2024 Sustainability Report charts progress across the board. Key points include:

• Commitment to Circularity: In 2024, Trex sourced over 1 billion pounds of reclaimed polyethylene (PE) film and wood scrap—including 377 million pounds of waste plastic, making Trex one of one of North America’s largest recyclers of PE.
• Innovative Products: Trex decking and railing products are designed for durability, aesthetic appeal, and long-lasting performance, with limited warranties of up to 50 years. Our Enhance deck boards, built and priced to compete directly with wood, come with a 25-year warranty—about twice the lifespan of typical wood decking in outdoor conditions. This extended longevity significantly reduces the need for replacements, lowering the environmental impact.
• Efficiency in Manufacturing: Trex maximized resource efficiency by recycling nearly 100% of its production scrap. Trex also recycled 31% of its general waste that would otherwise have gone to landfill.
• Creating Opportunity for Employees: Trex expanded its learning and development programs and increased employee engagement. In 2024 alone, employees benefited from over 62,000 hours of training.
• External Recognition: Trex was recognized as a Green Builder® Sustainable Brand Leader, included in Barron’s 2024 list of Top Sustainable Companies, and received the Greater Good Award for Large Business of the Year from The Top of Virginia Regional Chamber.

The report also outlines forward-looking initiatives, including expanded end-of-life product recycling pilots and new sourcing strategies to build resilience amid growing demand for recycled materials.

“Sustainability has always been integral to who we are,” said Amy Fernandez, Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Chief Sustainability Officer of Trex Company. “Our 2024 report reflects our unwavering commitment to responsible growth, innovation, and continuous improvement.”
