Boral USA TruExterior Trim

Boral USA’s TruExterior Trim is a wood substitute for nonstructural, exterior applications such as fascia boards and window surrounds. Comprising bio-based polymers and flyash, the material resists rotting, splitting, freeze-thaw cycles, and termites without priming or end sealing. The trim comes in 16′ lengths in nominal dimensions from 1×4 to 1×12, and 5/4×4 to 5/4×12. Made from at least 70% recycled or rapidly renewable materials, TruExterior Trim is Cradle-to-Cradle Certified Silver. boralna.com
