TexaWood is a line of environmentally friendly furniture utilizing ‘lumber’ made from recycled plastics. The TexaWood ‘lumber’ begins its transformation with the recycling of post-consumer bottle waste such as milk and detergent bottles and other post- industrial materials. The cleaned and decontaminated materials are compounded into pellets that are melted, molded and extruded into planks of plastic ‘lumber’ and are available in a host of natural and vibrant colors. By creating the ‘lumber’ from a single, purified polymer material, the eventual lumber is manufactured to an exacting, reproducible product ensuring uniform quality standards. The end product is a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) material that has the look and texture of real wood. How does this material withstand the elements? Extremely well! The ‘lumber’ is tested in thousands of hours of UV and water scenarios with outstanding results. Although some slight color fading could occur during its service life it will be uniform in appearance. This excellent outdoor material needs no waterproofing, painting or staining to maintain its appearance. Our Adirondack collections are made exclusively with this lumber material and assembled using stainless steel hardware. The Fresco collection incorporates a very heavy wall aluminum frame with planks of the TexaWood lumber. The planks are held in place with stainless steel hardware. Texacraft’s Fuse Collection (pages 104-105) is created from a similar HDPE product called MGP or Marine Grade Polymer. Like HDPE material, MGP is also derived from post-consumer bottle waste such as milk and detergent containers or other post-industrial materials. The main difference is that MGP is formed into large sheets, creating a smooth, uniform surface that is slightly heavier in comparison to HDPE lumber. Both HDPE and MGP are excellent all-weather materials that never require painting, staining, or waterproofing to maintain their appearance.
Texacraft’s TexaWood collections are perfect for commercial use as they are extremely durable and need little maintenance. A simple wash with the hose will keep the furniture clean and looking good for years of outdoor enjoyment.
