Press Release

WINCHESTER, Va., Sept. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The best outdoor spaces don’t disappear after dark – they come to life. Trex Company [NYSE: TREX], the world’s largest manufacturer of wood-alternative decking and railing, and a leader in high-performance, low-maintenance outdoor living products, is expanding its outdoor living portfolio with an upgraded collection of Trex^® Lighting, along with new Trex Select^® Aluminum Gates and marine-grade stainless steel fastening solutions.

The lighting collection serves as the centerpiece of the launch, bringing an elevated level of sophistication to outdoor illumination with discreet fixtures that complement Trex decking and railing. At the same time, the latest railing and fastening solutions give homeowners and contractors additional options for creating complete, coordinated outdoor spaces with the performance and aesthetic appeal of the Trex brand.

“Outdoor living is about creating a space that feels complete, and every element – from the decking and railing to the lighting and finishing touches – plays an important role in bringing that space to life,” said Adam Zambanini, President and CEO of Trex Company. “These latest additions to our portfolio were designed with the same focus on thoughtful engineering and lasting performance that has long defined Trex. Together, they reflect our continued commitment to enhancing every part of the outdoor living experience.”

Designed to Disappear by Day and Transform the Night

Built as a cohesive system to complement Trex^® decking and railing, the new Trex Lighting collection brings a warm, beautifully diffused glow to outdoor spaces after dark. The sleek, low-profile fixtures integrate naturally into the deck, casting light down (vs. out), adding ambiance, dimension and visibility without distracting from the deck itself. Premium components and streamlined installation make it easier to create a polished, inviting outdoor space that homeowners can enjoy long after sunset.

“We didn’t just upgrade fixtures – we rethought the entire lighting system,” said Mike Onderko, Senior Director, Product Marketing for Trex Company. “From durable connectors and simplified wiring to carefully tuned illumination, every element was engineered to improve performance and deliver a more refined finished result.”

New offerings include:

• Linear Riser Light – Creates a sleek line of light along stair risers with a hidden clip-in configuration that simplifies installation while providing an ambient glow across each step.
• Post Cap Lights – Designed to disappear during the day while providing soft, ambient lighting at night, and available in three profiles to complement Trex^® Railing systems. 
• Oval Riser Light – Delivers a clean, modern look with plug-and-play wiring that makes it straightforward for contractors to connect multiple lights.
• Under-Rail Light – Provides a continuous glow beneath the bottom rail with a customizable design that can be trimmed to fit across Trex railing systems.
• System Accessories – A complete range of accessories made exclusively for the Trex Lighting collection includes a dimmer and remote with 1–100% brightness control; a transformer and timer featuring dusk sensors and customizable scheduling for precise, energy-efficient operation; a six-way splitter; and extension wires with soy-free sheathing.
  

The collection combines energy-efficient, high CRI LED lighting with a carefully tuned color temperature designed to enhance the outdoor space and accurately feature the colors and finishes of Trex decking. Weather-resistant construction helps protect components from the elements, supporting performance backed by a 5-Year Limited Warranty^, while the 24VDC low-voltage system and UL wet-location listing provide added confidence for outdoor applications.

“What stands out about the new Trex Lighting system is how straightforward it is to install without compromising the finished look,” said TrexPro^® Platinum builder Lowell Taylor, owner of Virginia Deck Works. “The lighting components work together in a way that makes it easier to deliver the kind of high-end, integrated lighting homeowners are looking for while giving contractors confidence in the performance behind it.”

Fellow TrexPro^® Platinum contractor Bruce Verblaauw experienced the new Trex Lighting firsthand while integrating it into a deck for global lifestyle icon Martha Stewart*.

“As you might imagine, building a deck for someone with impeccable design taste like Martha Stewart meant bringing our A-game, and the new Trex Lighting definitely delivered,” said Verblaauw, owner of NJ Decks & Outdoor Living. “The components have better wiring and plugs, which made them a pleasure to work with. You just plug them together and you’re done. It made things much simpler, and Martha was extremely pleased with the results.”*

The new Trex Lighting collection was also featured at this year’s HGTV Dream Home*, further showcasing the collection in a high-profile outdoor living environment.

More Innovation Across the Trex Portfolio

Launching alongside the Trex Lighting collection are two other new additions to the Trex portfolio, each designed to coordinate with existing Trex products and deliver lasting performance.

• Trex Select^® Aluminum Gate: Offers a clean, streamlined look that complements Trex Select^® Aluminum Railing. Available in 34- and 40-inch sizes to complement 36-inch and 42-inch rail heights, the gate kits deliver streamlined assembly without visible crossmembers and utilize the same D&D Technologies^® hinges and hardware used across the existing Trex gate portfolio for a familiar installation experience and a clean finished look.
  
  
• Trex Hideaway^® Stainless Steel Fasteners: Made from marine-grade 316 stainless steel for demanding outdoor environments, these fastening options include plug and color-matched screws for Trex^® decking and plug screws for fascia applications. Engineered to provide the same familiar installer experience as existing Trex carbon steel fasteners, the stainless steel options offer added durability for projects in coastal and saltwater environments. 
  

Together, these additions expand the Trex outdoor living system, giving homeowners and contractors more ways to create coordinated, high-performance spaces from the deck structure and finishing details to the way the space comes to life after dark.
