LP Building Solutions, a manufacturer of engineered, durable products recently introduced a new addition to its roster with LP Elements™ Performance Fencing, a wood fence solution, which the company asserts offers an entirely new material category in private fencing.

The product was designed with fence industry professionals in mind to provide a long-lasting, aesthetically pleasing private fencing alternative. Available in seven natural color options, it also offers greater durability than softwood and vinyl.

 
"Expanding into the private fencing category signifies our company growth as we work to meet the evolving needs of the industry and consumers," said Adina Barnes, LP's growth and innovation manager.

Reported to be one of the industry's most rigorously tested fencing products, its 6-foot-6-inch normal width features a dog ear picket design protected to the core by the manufacturer's proprietary zinc borate-based process that is engineered and tested to withstand hail and impacts, high-velocity winds up to 130 mph, humid temperatures and more.

The engineered wood behind LP Elements was developed to have consistent quality with no bending, warping and twisting like softwood. Offering the natural beauty of cedar and redwood with lower maintenance costs and hassle, the product eliminates the need to re-stain.

"For the first time, fence industry professionals are able to provide homeowners with a unique fencing solution that delivers the advantages of engineered wood," said Ashwin Himat, director of growth and innovation for LP.

And just one week after announcing product availability. Jamieson Fence Supply, a Dallas-based national fencing wholesaler, was revealed to be the first customer of the fencing.

"The first shipment of LP Elements fencing represents a significant milestone in the fencing industry," Himat said. "It is the first and only engineered wood fence product for the market, and now it is in the market. A longtime leader in building solutions, we're committed to making it a game-changing new product for installers and homeowners."
