he Juniper Collection, our organic cedar line,

is composed of fibers from Juniper Mexicana. Though this

species of trees produces oils which are used in
perfumes and many household supplies and makes excellent
fence posts, many additional acres of Juniper have had to
be eradicated due to their negative impact on the aquifer
causing major drinking water shortages for man and
wildlife. We use this discarded Juniper and blend it with
recycled polyethylene plastics to create a natural,
earth-friendly decking material with the strength,
durability and beauty of all MoistureShield materials.
And because of Junipers durability and natural resistance
to pests and mildew, the Juniper line does not contain
excess chemicals.

Natural-looking MoistureShield products are 100% PVC-free

and use only safe recycled materials and natural additives.
Because the Juniper line is free from artificial colorants,
it will lighten more as a result of the natural weathering
process. For more Information, please see page 7.
