Envision Outdoor Living Products recently added 3 new eye-catching board colors to its Distinction Collection. These three new board colors deliver improved traction and Cool Tread Technology to the board profiles, which adds significant benefits for both installers and homeowners.

 

Decking Digest will review the product details, colors, and benefits of these new additions to Envision’s Distinction Collection.

 

Envision Distinction Collection

From the budget friendly Ridge Premium, to the superior performing Distinction Collection, Envision does a good job of offering a board profile to meet all types of consumer needs. The Distinction Collection is the top of the line in Envision’s board portfolio.

 

The addition of improved traction and Cool Tread Technology only makes this a more desirable line from a performance and beauty perspective.

 

The three new color additions to the Distinction Collection are:

Nantucket Shore:

Warm grey tones, reminiscent of a light mist on the shore front.

Hampton Dunes:

A beautiful blend of sandy tones found on a morning beach stroll.

Seaside Pier:

A "greige" color blend, mimicking the colors found in a perfectly weathered boardwalk.

The previous colors within the Distinction Collection are:

Rustic Walnut

Grey Wood

Shaded Auburn

Spiced Teak

 

Today, only the 3 new colors will feature this Cool Tread Technology benefit.  So, what is Cool Tread Technology and what are the main benefits?

 

Cool Tread Technology™ is designed to deliver 3 key benefits:

  1. A cooler board during installation for builders and under your feet after installation for homeowners.

  2. Materials and embossing that improve deck board traction.

  3. Composition of the deck board that reduces water absorption.

 The Envision Building Products Website explains:

"The new Distinction collection features trend-led color combinations and a surface that is up to 25 percent cooler* with 25 percent better traction and 61 percent less moisture absorption compared to average leading competitors."

 

*Although Envision composite decking with Cool Tread Technology is designed to be cooler than most other composite decking products, it will still get hot when in direct sunlight on a hot day. During that time, care should be taken to avoid extended contact between exposed skin and the deck surface, especially with young children and those with special needs. 

 

What are the benefits for the installer and homeowner?

 

For the Installer:

Cooler Installation

During the summer months these boards can get hot. The cool tread technology will reduce some of the heat during the summer months and make installation a little easier.

  

Fast Installation

There’s no need to sort boards before your deck build because no board is the same. This leads to quicker installation and a more natural looking finish.

 

Durability

The Envision manufacturing process creates a board resistant to staining, splintering, cracking, insects, and rot – elevating your projects. 

For the Homeowner:

 Premium Quality Decking

Crafted using their exclusive Compress Technology™, their EverGrain Core™ pairs with their high-density cap to create durable, low maintenance decking.


Non-Repeating Grains

Authentic deep grains are compressed into the board for naturally random patterns that don’t repeat – creating a stunning finish once complete.

Low Maintenance

Once your Envision deck is installed, you can relax. No worrying about sanding, staining, sealing, or splinters.

 

Conclusion:

 

Envision is making their best board even better with Cool Tread Technology. The beautiful new colors deliver improved traction, reduced water absorption, and a cooler board under the sun.
