SUSTAINABLE RESOURCES: Recycled Content National Association of Home Builders Green Building points are available to builders who choose materials made with recycled content. Recycled wood fibers are used in the manufacturing of Kroy composite products. This process reclaims wood fiber from different industries, and keeps wood scraps from ending up in landfills. |
 |
ENERGY EFFICIENCY: No Site Finish On-site finishing requires additional resources and can lead to an increase in pollutants. Kroy products do not require on-site finishing. |

LIFECYCLE BENEFITS: Lifecycle Analysis The NAHB rewards builders that select durable products. Kroy fence and rail are designed to withstand the weather season after season, and won't rot or degrade like products made from wood. Termite Resistant Materials Sustainability and durability go hand in hand. Kroy products are manufactured to last. Our vinyl fence and rail and composite rail products use termite-resistant materials. This helps contribute to an increased lifecycle and lower maintenance.
