25 Year Anniversary

A Lasting Solution for a Centuries-Old Problem

The First Ever PVC Trim. Still The #1 Trim.

We may have invented PVC trim, but it’s the contractors using it day in and day out, and our continuous product innovations that make us #1. Hear what they’re saying about AZEK and why they think the original is still the best.

A Lasting Solution For A Centuries-Old Problem

Wood Rots

Traditional fixes like re-painting or replacing rotting wood are only temporary and lead to a lifetime of maintenance.

A Breakthrough Idea

Replace wood trim with PVC, a material that won’t rot and looks just as good. The idea caught on, and AZEK was born. 25 years later, we’re still at the forefront of innovative, durable, beautiful exterior building materials.

From Roofline To Ground

Durability

Wood rots. PVC does not.
Let’s build on that.

The idea for PVC trim came from a visit to Cape Cod, where beautiful seaside homes were suffering with rotting wood trim. But wood trim’s disadvantages — frequent painting, water damage, and eventual deterioration — would be things of the past after we made the first trim board out of PVC. Trimtech 500, the original name for AZEK Trim, invented a whole new category of building materials.

“The choice to use AZEK Trim was simple — we knew it would stand up against the toughest elements and still look great in years to come.”
– Andy Krumm, Parkway Construction

Water Damage Finds A Way

Trim protects a structure at its joints, window and door penetrations, and ground contact. Cutting costs in trim may cost more in the long run.

Near-Zero Maintenance

AZEK products maintain their beauty with little more than a wash with mild soap and a hose.

Reliability

Building Your Trust For 25 Years

AZEK Exteriors builds products that deliver a lifetime of consistent performance—from the jobsite to decades of enduring beauty. Beyond that, we’ve built a company that backs up its customers with training, support, marketing, demand generation, and more.

“AZEK is the leader in PVC materials—the most realistic, easiest to work with, best product in the marketplace, bar none.”
– Nick Hutcherson, Hutcherson Construction

No Special Tools

AZEK PVC uses regular woodworking tools — no special blades, bits, or respirators.

Formable

AZEK Trim can be glued up and milled, turned, carved, or heat bent for beautiful results.

Lightweight & Flexible

Easy to carry at the jobsite, AZEK PVC doesn’t crack or break like fiber cement.

“It gives such a good finish. We curve AZEK Trim around windows, doors… it’s a stunning result we couldn’t have pulled off without AZEK.”
- Tony McKlem, Hollywood Decks

PVC Collection

1,100+ bins are at AZEK dealers, OEMs, and jobsites collecting scrap through the AZEK FULL-CIRCLE PVC RECYCLING^® program.

Recycling Capability

AZEK recycles materials that others cannot, thanks to proprietary tech – our material scientists are researching ways to use even more recycled materials.

“A green product is one that’s going to last 40 years or longer — and that’s AZEK.”
– Robert Ervin, AIA, LEED AP, NCARB

Sustainability

Doing What’s Right Is Always Smart

AZEK focuses on new and better ways to use resources that create less environmental impact. That’s why we’re the #1 vertically integrated recycler of PVC in the country, and working to our goal of over a billion pounds of waste and scrap annually diverted from landfills. AZEK Siding and Trim are one way you and your customers help.

Thoughtful Longevity

A long-lasting product is more sustainable than one that needs to be replaced.
