Does composite fence fade?
Our architectural grade composite fencing is engineered with high-quality UV inhibitors to minimize fading and maintain its vibrant color for decades.

Generally, yes. Composite is considered a luxury material due to its advanced material science and natural wood-like appearance.
How do I clean my composite fence?
Simple soap and water or a light pressure wash are usually all that's needed to keep it looking brand new.
