Epoch composite products

The manufacturer says its EverGrain line is unlike other plastic and composite decking products because it's made by compression molding, a process that creates a deep grain texture on the surface of every board. The compression also gives each board multiple patterns to ensure a more natural look, the maker says. It's available in four colors: cedar, redwood, grey, and Cape Cod grey. 800-405-0546. www.evergrain.com. Circle 376.
