| From
time to time we make donations of
decking to worthy causes. The company
very rarely makes cash gifts, preferring
to increase our reach by making gifts
of decking to suitable projects. Previously,
we have made donations or provided
discounted seconds material to projects
including the Thundering Falls section
of the Appalachian Trail (in Vermont);
for the Maine Huts and Trails hut-to-hut
system; the Biddeford Skate Park;
viewing platforms at Mt. Agamenticus;
and numerous Eagle Scout projects.
We have given material
for more than 30 benches in the Biddeford-Saco
area. In total, in 9 years of doing
business, we estimate that we have
donated or discounted more than 250,000
feet of decking and railing.
Our primary charity
is The Nature Conservancy, where we
have given at the highest or 2nd highest
recognized level for many years. We
are interested in reducing the usage
of tropical hardwoods and have worked
with TNC on this issue.
Additionally, the
founders of the company are avid mountain
bikers and are particularly interested
in supporting projects that improve
access to mountain bike trails, reduce
impact from trail use, etc.
The material is
well suited for bridges and other
structures including ramps and can
be used where completely submerged
(i.e. for sleepers in boggy areas).
It is also well suited for use on
beaches; access to beaches and surf
is another supported area.
