Iron Woods CXTM uses recycled materials and meets LEED eligibility requirements MILWAUKEE--(Business Wire)-- Timber Holdings International, the original Iron Woods brand of naturally durable hardwood products, today announced it has entered into an agreement with Correct Building Products, LLC whereby Correct Building Products will manufacture a commercial grade deck board for Timber Holdings. The new product will be sold and marketed by Timber Holdings as Iron Woods CX ultra low maintenance Hybrid Commercial Grade Decking for commercial marine dock and boardwalk applications.

Additionally, the product meets ADA slip resistance requirements Brian Lotz, president of Timber Holdings International said, "We recognized that some of our customers were looking for commercial grade decking solutions that would provide some of the advantages associated with naturally durable hardwoods along with color options for particular applications without the requirement for painting or staining. To offer a broader product pallet of options, including those that are environmentally friendly, we are proud to introduce Iron Woods CX." Iron Woods CX is made in America.
