Universal Consumer Products, makers of Latitudes Composite Decking, unveils its next generation of co-extruded composite decking under the Latitudes Capricorn® brand name. The new composite decking will be available in the spring of 2012 and was showcased during the 2012 LBM Expo at Foxwoods in Connecticut and it will also be shown at the International Builders’ Show in Orlando, beginning February 8, 2012.
The next generation of Latitudes which is exclusively distributed by Boston Cedar in the northeast, features an innovative cap stock for a richer look and outstanding performance. The new synthetic cap stock deck boards feature an improved scratch-resistant surface that is also extremely resilient to stains and fading. Backed by an all-new 25-year stain and fade warranty, it offers a more natural-looking surface, realistic grain pattern and is available in two Capricorn variegated colors, Koa and Arabica, and three solid hues in Cedar, Gray or Walnut. Fortified with the same proven Strandex® technology, new Latitudes co-extruded composite decking is the perfect balance of beauty, strength and ultra-low maintenance performance.
New Capricorn features:
• 12′, 16′ and 20′ slotted board lengths and 16’ solid boards for stairs and trim boards.• Slotted edges encapsulated on one side with a stain, fade and scratch resistant cap stock.
• Solid edge boards capped on three sides with an advanced co-extrusion technology for ultra-low maintenance.
• Durable, stain-and fade-resistant exterior finish.
“New Latitudes co-extruded deck boards are more durable and better looking than composite decking of the past and the rugged cap stock we’ve employed is highly durable and proven in many exterior applications. Architects, Builders and homeowners will appreciate its great looks and exceptional time-tested performance,” said Geoffrey Meyer, sales manager for Universal Consumer Products.
What makes Latitudes composite decking and railing special is the Strandex® technology it employs on the interior of the product. Strandex technology is much like individual strands that make a rope stronger; it offers superior protection against UV degradation and water absorption because every “strand” of wood fiber is encased in high-density polyethylene. You can be assured you’re getting the highest quality and strongest composite product available.
Decorative Fascia Corners
Latitudes® Composite Decking also bolsters its deck accessory lineup with decorative, metal fascia corners.Latitudes decorative fascia corners are a stylish way to dress up deck skirting and cover unsightly corner joints. Each corner is sold individually and installs easily with eight color-matched screws (provided). Made of stainless steel and powder-coated black, fascia corners are available in Leaf and Ridge designs and are offered in 7,” 9” and 11” heights to fit virtually any size fascia boards.
