FAQ - Color and Weathering
What colors are available for Elements® products?
Elements decking grain finish is available in three natural colors - Cape Cod Grey, Redwood and Weathered Wood. Elements DockBoard is available in Pier Grey.
Will Elements products weather?
Usually within the first several months of exposure to the environment, Elements products weather to a lighter shade of color. The weathering process for Elements composite products will vary due to region, climate, rain, sunlight exposure, etc.
Some variation in the products' shade of color will appear due to weathering that will occur in the supplier's yard prior to shipment and due to different product lots. However, the color shades stay in the same color family.
Will the color be the same on materials manufactured at different times?
Some variations will occur due to natural pigments of the raw materials. However, most minor variations will diminish with normal weathering. For best results, use material from the same product lot whenever possible.
