TriMax Structural Plastic Lumber

TriMax can be fabricated and installed with the same tools used to work with wood lumber. TriMax has no grain or knots, so it can be drilled and cut very cleanly. TriMax has excellent weathering resistance, and requires no waterproofing, painting, staining, or similar maintenance.

Pilings and sheet piling products can be driven with pile driving equipment such as vibratory hammers, land based or barge mounted drop hammers, or waterjets. For shoreline timberwork applications, TriMax is used with conventional hardware such as stainless or galvanized bolts, tie rods, nuts, washers and anchor systems.

Building code regulations vary by region, so all TriMax users should consult local building and safety codes prior to installation for specific requirements.

TriMax products are unaffected by most corrosive substances, and will not absorb moisture. To maintain the original finish, clean the lumber with soap and water. No sealing or painting is required; as a general rule, paint will not adhere well to TriMax.

Graffiti can be cleaned from the plastic lumber with the use of a conventional all-purpose cleaner or petroleum based cleaner. If the skin or surface layer of plastic lumber becomes marred or blemished, it is possible to sand off the top skin. The surface can also be buffed to eliminate abrasions.
