Colors for composite decking

Weatherization for open siding
The UV-rated open-joint cladding system includes InvisiWrap UV, HydroFlash UV+,
and Batten UV. InvisiWrap UV is an unprinted, high-performance black nonwoven
building wrap. The product is matte black to avoid competing with other visual
elements of open-joint architecture. It reportedly provides superior water hold out,
ideal vapor permeability, and durability. InvisiWrap UV can be used with siding
openings of as much as 2 in. and has a UV of rating to 12 mo. before siding installation. HydroFlash UV+ self-adhered flashing uses an aggressive acrylic adhesive
for extreme environmental conditions. The product can be used for keeping penetration flashing and covering furring strips invisible behind open joints. Batten UV
creates a 3/8-in. rainscreen gap for optimum drainage and drying.

MoistureShield CoolDeck technology
reportedly minimizes heat absorption as
much as 35% versus traditional capped
composite boards, providing a more
comfortable deck surface. Available
in a variety of colors, Mochaccino and
Cathedral Stone are now part of the
Vision line with the CoolDeck option.
Vision provides a modern, variegated
appearance, resembling interior hardwoods. Baords are available in 12-, 16-,
and 20-ft. lengths.
