How is Baleboard® different from other recycled plastic lumber on the market today?
Other recycled plastic boards contain plastic from blue box recycling programs, which include polymers like polystyrene and PET plastic from pop bottles. These plastics do not mix well, and boards made from the blue box program often have large air holes, and chunks of contaminants may be visible. This plastic lumber is high-density polyethylene, which makes it brittle in cold temperatures. Baleboard® is unique in that it is one polymer – 100% polyethylene (PE) plastic. Because it is mainly linear-low density polyethylene, it has greater flexibility under extreme temperatures, and is stronger and more durable.
