Trex Company is once again expanding its popular Trex???(R)???AE???? Transcend???(R)???AE???? decking collection to include a new light grey color called Island Mist. This calm, silvery shade features realistic streaking that mimics the natural look and feel of aged tropical hardwood, and is designed to be a cooler complement to the three existing tropical-inspired shades and the five earth-tone Trex Transcend hues. Island Mist features a combination of superior durability, low-maintenance and eco-friendly qualities.

"The silvery patina of a well-worn – and well-loved – deck remains a popular look among homeowners and designers, as it lends a sense of timelessness and natural beauty to any outdoor living space," said Ronald W. Kaplan, company chairman. "Island Mist evokes all the romance and charm of this classic, distressed look, without the ongoing maintenance requirements or environmental consequences of wood."

Island Mist joins eight other Trex Transcend decking colors inspired by the great outdoors. The full range of aesthetic options also includes earthy classics with deep wood grains – Tree House (warm earth tone), Vintage Lantern (deep-burnished bronze), Fire Pit (spicy red), Gravel Path (pristine grey) and Rope Swing (a light taupe) – as well as three tropical colors that feature subtle shading, natural variations and hardwood-like striations – Spiced Rum (earthy umber), Lava Rock (reddish-black) and Tiki Torch (light brown).

Like the latter three options, Island Mist features realistic wood grains engineered right into the board, which allows for a deeper, more natural appearance and a low-sheen luster that will last for years to come.

Each decking color also is designed to coordinate seamlessly with railing options in six colors. With modular construction that provides design flexibility, contractors and consumers may mix and match balusters, posts and top rails to create a completely customized outdoor living space.

Mist is now available. For more information about Trex products, as well as a contractor locator tool, visit www.trex.com.
