Videos NEXTREX RECYCLING CHALLENGE
At Trex, sustainability is not just a buzzword its a founding principle of our company and part of our DNA. For more than three decades, we have continued to derive value from discarded materials, diverting waste from landfills and waterways. Our composite decking is made from 95% recycled materials, so recycling plays a considerable role in our day-to-day operations." Bryan Fairbanks, President and CEO of Trex® Company

With the NexTrex program, you not only know exactly where your recycled plastic film is going but also how it will be used. Together with our commercial and community partners across the country, we are able to divert plastic waste from ending up in landfills and give it new life as beautiful and sustainable Trex decking." Emily Whitacre, Recycling Programs Coordinator Trex® Company
NEXTREX RECYCLING CHALLENGE PROGRAM
Trex® is refreshing the Recycling Challenge and is excited to announce that instead of one opportunity to earn a reward, Trex® will now offer quarterly drawings. This provides groups the opportunity to earn the chance to win rewards up to four times per year. This fun, inclusive format allows every participant a chance to be recognized, while reducing pressure to meet specific collection goals. The updated program launches in January, so new registrations are paused until then giving everyone time to get ready for a more engaging and rewarding Recycling Challenge! Trex® is dedicated to educating proper recycling practices for plastic bags and other soft plastic films through its Recycling Challenge. The company proudly supports local recycling initiatives across the country by partnering with participating organizations, including K12 schools, civic groups, houses of worship, and colleges and universities.
