Follow on Google News | North Carolina manufacturer unrolls new ProFekt deck surface – looks and feels like real woodProFekt™, a recyclable, realistic-wood product designed to preserve wooden deck and patio surfaces will be at the 2010 Southern Spring Home & Garden Show in Charlotte at exhibit #3119.
By: United Plastics Corporation ProFekt is designed to make old decks and patios look and feel new again without the need for power washing or complete reconstruction and rebuilding. ProFekt also preserves newly constructed decks and patios by protecting the wood surface from direct contact with moisture and the elements. “The top surface of a deck is what normally deteriorates first,” says Jack Nagy, Sr. Vice President of Sales and Marketing for United Plastics Corp. “Installing ProFekt will double and even triple the life of decks and patios with minimal maintenance for years.” The natural mineral aspect of the composition of ProFekt was designed to eliminate the slipping issues in plastic composite decking where wood fiber and wood filler is used. The natural mineral composition eliminates splinters while creating a non-slip surface in both wet and dry environments while reducing the possibility of mold and mildew growth. An ultraviolet ray stabilizer is integrated into ProFekt to enhance color stability and reduce fading. An antifungal treatment is added to combat moisture intrusion and prevent mildew and mold. “ProFekt is a very simple way to give decks and patios a makeover,” says Nagy. “It installs quickly and hides unsightly boards while protecting them from further damage.” ProFekt is a flexible, realistic wood look surface that is completely recyclable. ProFekt is designed to cover up unsightly, aged wood, revitalizing and protecting deck and patio surfaces. For easy installation, Profekt can be cut with a simple razor knife to the desired measurements. Then, ProFekt is placed on the surface of existing decks. Vinyl adhesive is used (recommended for outdoor use) to adhere Profekt to existing decks. Finishing nails should be tacked into the ends of each piece for proper installation. Time-lapse, testimonial and demo videos of the new, ProFekt deck product from United Plastics Corp. can be seen at www.ProFektDecks.com. ProFekt is sold in a 21.5” wide by 12’ long pad, and a 5.5” wide by 40’ long plank. Both versions are 3 millimeters thick. ProFekt will be available at the end of March in Home Depot stores throughout the Carolinas. # # # The United Plastics Corporation has been creating innovative, plastics-based products in Mt.
