Making a positive impact in the communities we call home is essential to Trex. We contribute to building stronger and healthier communities through our recycling programmes, employee volunteer efforts and charitable donations.
Teaming Up With Our Neighbours
NexTrex® Community
We work hand-in-hand with local organisations to promote the importance of recycling through our NexTrex® programme. In 2021, Trex helped more than 2,500 community groups and schools recycle 1 million-plus pounds of plastic film.
NexTrex® Partners
When it comes to recycling, we know simpler is better. Our NexTrex® labelling initiative, launched in 2021, streamlined the process for retailers, distributors and brand owners to verify that their packaging can be recycled through our programme. Eco-conscious consumers can easily spot the NexTrex® label on products and drop off discarded packaging at 32,000 collection locations in the United States.

Supporting Military Veterans
As part of a three-year partnership with the Yellow Ribbon Fund, we have pledged at least $180,000 toward housing, transport and family support for military veterans. We are also matching employee donations to this effort, dollar-for-dollar.
