Today, more homeowners are looking for ways to make their properties not only beautiful and functional but also environmentally responsible. The good news? You don’t have to sacrifice style or durability to go green.


With sustainable fencing and decking options, you can enjoy an outdoor space that’s both eco-friendly and long-lasting.


Here are some sustainable materials worth considering for your next project:


1. Composite Decking Made from recycled wood fibers and plastics, composite decking is durable, low-maintenance, and keeps waste out of landfills. It mimics the look of natural wood without requiring staining or sealing.


2. Bamboo As one of the fastest-growing plants in the world, bamboo is a renewable alternative to traditional hardwoods. It’s strong, stylish, and has a smaller environmental footprint.


3. Reclaimed Wood Using salvaged or reclaimed wood reduces demand for newly harvested timber. It gives a unique, rustic character to your fence or deck and makes use of materials that might otherwise go to waste.


4. Metal Fencing (Aluminum or Steel) While not “organic,” metals like aluminum are highly recyclable and long-lasting. Many aluminum fences today are made with a high percentage of recycled content.


5. Eco-Friendly Finishes Beyond the structure itself, you can choose low-VOC (volatile organic compound) stains and sealers that are safer for your family and the environment.



Built Tough Tip


When going green, think lifecycle, not just material. A product that lasts decades with minimal upkeep often has a smaller environmental impact than cheaper materials that need constant replacing.


Reflection
