Trex(R) Spiral Stairs(TM) Named 'Best New Product' for 2014

WINCHESTER, VA--(Marketwired - August 01, 2014) - Trex Company, the world's largest manufacturer of wood-alternative decking and railing products, today announced that Trex^® Spiral Stairs™ has been named a 2014 "Best New Product" by Professional Remodeler, one of the industry's most respected trade journals. The collection was recognized for its exceptional style, design flexibility and superior durability in the Decking/Outdoor Living category of the magazine's annual "100 Best New Products" report. 

"Being consistently acknowledged as an industry leader -- year after year -- by Professional Remodeler is not only an honor, but underscores Trex's commitment to delivering the highest quality outdoor living products to our consumers and trade professionals," said Ronald W. Kaplan, chairman, president and CEO of Trex. "It's always rewarding when top influencers and experts recognize the outstanding performance of Trex licensed products, as we strive to elevate the entire outdoor living category with strong design and manufacturing innovations."

All-Inclusive Collection Provides Superior Strength, Durability and Style
With 12 different customizable options, the understated, contemporary design of Trex Spiral Stairs offers a strong fit for private residences, multi-family housing and commercial settings, while meeting strict code requirements that continue to be enacted in many cities across the U.S.

The collection is offered both in aluminum and galvanized steel models to suit the tastes -- and budgets -- of any homeowner, and is crafted to match the signature hues of Trex decking and railing. The new stair line also showcases exclusive options that ensure a precise installation. Furthermore, the line is designed to incorporate various components of Trex's LED-dimmable Trex^® DeckLighting™, adding both style and safety to its surfaces and surrounding areas.

"Since its introduction last October, Trex Spiral Stairs have allowed consumers and contractors alike the opportunity to further customize the outdoor living space," Kaplan added. "This acknowledgment from one of the industry's most esteemed publications reinforces the positive impact this product has had on homeowners looking for a strong yet compact stair solution."

Trex Spiral Stairs are manufactured and sold by The Iron Shop, based in Pennsylvania, under a trademark licensing agreement with Trex. The system also comes with an all-inclusive 25-year craftsmanship and defects warranty and five-year all-inclusive finish warranty for additional peace of mind.
