MoistureShield, a signature brand of Oldcastle APG, announces a new distributor partnership with Timberstone Distribution in Western Canada. This will expand the manufacturer’s composite decking portfolio throughout Western Canada, including British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and parts of Northern Ontario.
Several of MoistureShield’s wood composite decking product lines are now available through this partnership with Timberstone Distribution, including the Vision*, Meridian*, Elevate and Vantage lines, which feature the Solid Core Difference. MoistureShield’s solid core construction, which has seen no field failures in over 30 years, features an impermeable barrier that fights damage from moisture, rot, insects and other harmful elements to provide a low-maintenance decking material specially engineered to last. The brand’s CoolDeck Technology is the first of its kind to deliver surface heat absorption solutions.
“We’re thrilled to join forces with Timberstone Distribution, bringing MoistureShield’s innovative composite decking solutions to contractors and homeowners across Western Canada. Timberstone is a fitting partner for us in that they are willing to go the extra mile for their customers and their partners,” said Chris Hayn, Executive Vice President, Oldcastle APG. “This partnership with Timberstone will enable Canadian builders to access quality MoistureShield products through a Canadian distributor who understands local needs.”
A family-owned company, Timberstone has a long history in serving Western Canada’s construction and service industry.
“We are Canadian-owned and operated, giving us insight into what our local customers need and expect,” said Curtis Koehler, CEO of Timberstone. “We pride ourselves on our ability to bring high-quality and value-oriented Interior & Exterior building products like MoistureShield to our customers.”
MoistureShield’s composite decking products** are almost entirely made from recycled materials with post-consumer plastic, industrial plastic, wood fibers and other recycled content accounting for 95% of its Vision, Meridian, Elevate and Vantage boards’ composition. A leader in its category for innovation and sustainability, MoistureShield decking contributes to LEED green building certifications, diverts 27 million pounds of plastics from landfills, and recycles more than 65 million pounds of wood fiber every year, sparing the equivalent of 15,000 trees.
* Vision and Meridian decking lines are approved for use in California Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) zones.
**Does not include Stratos Composite Enhanced PVC Decking.
