RAINSCREENS THAT MAKE WOOD OBSOLETE Trex® Cladding uses Signature® or Transcend® square-edge deck boards to complete a rainscreen system. Trex Transcend decking is a wood thermoplastic composite lumber (WTCL) deck board with an integrated shell that covers the boards on the top surface and sides. The integrated shell consists of a proprietary surface formulation that produces a natural, wood-like grain pattern finish. The deck board is made from approximately 50 percent wood fiber and 50 percent polyethylene by weight and is an alternative to naturally durable hardwood lumber. Trex ® deck boards are manufactured by a continuous extrusion process, are available in various colors and are code-compliant for type V-B structures under 40' in height.
