“It’s an honor being recognized with this achievement,” said Kate Haws, director of brand communications. “Since our founding in 1997, we’ve made a point to create products that customers know are a good choice for their family, their home and the environment.”

Presented annually by The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies and The Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design, the Green GOOD DESIGN award program “identifies and emphasizes the world’s most important examples of sustainable design.”

Concordia is a premium composite decking line made with 94% recycled material that would otherwise be destined for landfills, incinerators, or oceans. About half of what’s in the decking boards comes from recycled wood—sawdust and leftover material that would otherwise be discarded. The other half comes from recycled plastic, including grocery bags and recycled packaging material.

Fiberon recycles these woods and plastics at an in-house facility that converts the waste into the materials needed to make new deck boards. The facility prevents more than 70,000 tons of waste from reaching landfills and incinerators annually. By using recycled materials, Fiberon saves more than 1 million trees—or 20,000 acres of healthy forest—from being cut down every year. As many as 2,000 plastic bags can be used in the manufacturing of a single board, averaging 100 million pounds of recycled plastic each year.

The company’s commitment to sustainability extends beyond the product design. Every Fiberon plant has a water reservoir about the size of a standard swimming pool to collect and reuse water during the manufacturing process. This closed-loop water system saves nearly 3.5 billion gallons of water annually.

The Astir Collection is the newest addition to the Concordia portfolio. It features a rustic cathedral grain and three fresh, nature-inspired multi-tonal hues: Prairie Wheat, a light tan reminiscent of lush fields of grain; Mountain Ash, a rich, deep brown inspired by mountain forests; and Seaside Mist, a modern grey with a warm, sandy undertone.
