Are there environmental issues to consider when choosing siding?
Yes. First, homeowners who are concerned about the environment will want to know that Vinyl Cedar is manufactured in such a way that scrap and solid waste is significantly reduced compared to some competitor panels. Also, the specific type of vinyl formula we use, PVC, is proven safe, and is widely used in medical devices. Second, like many Americans, we are troubled about the cutting down of old growth forests. Old growth trees are what give us the natural look and beauty so many of us want for house siding. Yet, in truth, over-cutting has made high-grade wood very hard to find, and extremely costly. What’s left is often very bland and average-looking tree wood. Our mission is to capture and preserve the beauty and texture of those original old growth forests. And that’s exactly what craftsmanship, combined with new technology, has allowed us to do.
