How does Lexite™ compare with wood, a renewable resource?
Timber forests require time to grow and develop the length, width and durability of wood demanded for consumer and building products. Deforestation is occurring at an increasing rate, with trees being harvested at younger ages, providing less than optimal strength and length. Made on a continuous production line, Lexite™ can be made to virtually any length or size dimension. Considering the primary raw material inputs for Lexite™ come from the post consumer waste stream, more Lexite™ production enhances the health of the environment and prevents the premature harvest of natural wood resources.
