Fiberon(R) Online Galleries and Deck Design Tool Inspire, Educate

Tools equip homeowners to envision a new outdoor space and have educated
conversations with contractors

NEW LONDON, N.C., Nov. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Homeowners seeking to enliven their
decks can look to the Inspiration Gallery and Deck Design Tool from Fiberon®,
LLC, a leading manufacturer of composite decking, railing and fencing and PVC
outdoor flooring. These tools help homeowners envision an outdoor living
space, understand the materials required and prepare for a conversation with
potential contractors.

The Fiberon Inspiration Gallery, accessible via www.fiberondecking.com and
selecting "Inspiration," is a collection of photographs showcasing beautiful
decks and creative uses for Fiberon's complete portfolio of decking solutions.
The "My Inspiration Book" feature allows a homeowner to save images to share
with their contractor, friends and family. The Fiberon Contractor Gallery
allows homeowners to see online portfolios from a variety of deck builders.

The Deck Design Tool, accessible via www.fiberondecking.com and selecting
"Design & Build," is a program that allows for complete customization of
design. After a quick registration that enables a user to return to saved and
in-progress plans, the user is guided through the steps of designing a deck.
The basic shape is selected, perimeter walls, doors and windows are added,
stairs can be added and decking and railing products and colors are chosen.

The process takes anywhere from 15 minutes, for a user that knows exactly what
they want, to an hour, for a user that wants to play around with options. A
PDF report is generated, providing:

-- a 3-D visual deck layout diagram with various elevations,
-- a complete installation checklist,
-- a list of tools required,
-- a Stress Analysis to aid in gaining a building permit,
-- an exhaustive list of materials from generic lumber, bolts and screws
to
the specific Fiberon products required to make the plan a reality

-- and a list of local building material suppliers and decking
contractors
to aid in taking the next step in turning the design into a reality.

In addition to those items, a Deck Part Identification diagram is included,
providing a diagram and glossary of deck construction terms. This is useful
for homeowners as they dialogue with contractors about details specific to
their project.

"Our goal with these tools is to help a homeowner visualize their new space,
and have an accurate understanding of what it will take to make it a reality,"
says Chris Beyer, Vice President of Marketing for Fiberon. "The more you can
visualize your completed space, and understand the needs of the decking
structure itself, the more confident you can be in an investment in
alternative decking."

Fiberon decking solutions are sold to professional contractors and dealers
through a national network of distributors. To learn more, visit
