Trex Company has announced the limited launch of Trex Refuge Decking—an ignition-resistant PVC decking line performance-engineered for use in select regions with heightened fire-safety requirements. Designed to meet stringent building codes while maintaining aesthetics, the new cellular PVC offering combines advanced fire performance with the thoughtful design, durability and low-maintenance benefits that are hallmarks of the Trex brand.
Third-party tested to the industry’s most rigorous standards, Trex Refuge decking resists ignition and slows flame spread, outperforming traditional wood decking*. The line meets ASTM E84 Class A Flame Spread requirements and complies with IWUIC ASTM E2768 Ignition Resistance Standards, making it approved for installation in fire-prone and Wildland-Urban Interface-protected areas (WUI)**.
Manufactured in the United States, Trex Refuge decking features a refined, wire-brushed grain pattern and is available in two hues, each crafted to capture the natural beauty of their namesake landscapes:
- Point Reyes – a misty coastal grey with cool undertones and refined grain inspired by rugged western shorelines.
- Martis Valley – a light, sun-washed beige with soft golden undertones and a clean, contemporary finish.
Trex Refuge decking is offered in 1-inch by 16-foot and 1-inch by 20-foot lengths with solid, square-edge profiles for strength and design flexibility. The boards are compatible with existing Trex Fascia options and can be installed using Trex Hideaway Fasteners and color-matched plugs.
Engineered for long-term performance, Trex Refuge decking resists fading, staining and scratching and will not rot, warp or splinter. Like all Trex decking, it requires no sanding, staining or sealing. Adding further confidence and appeal, Trex Refuge is backed by a 50-year Limited Residential Warranty***.
Trex Refuge is available only in select regions. To confirm availability, use the Where To Buy tool or connect with your local distributor or dealer. For more information, visit Trex.com.
