We are proud to be the first to take it to market and ultimately help put LP Elements to work for the end customer.”

One of the industry’s most rigorously tested fencing products, LP Elements’ 6-foot long by 6-inch wide picket features a dog ear design that is engineered and tested to withstand hail and impacts, high-velocity winds exceeding 200 mph, Exposure D, humid temperatures and more. It is protected to the core with LP’s proprietary zinc borate-based process to resist against termites.

The durable engineered wood of LP Elements fencing features consistent quality that does not bend, warp or twist like softwood. Offering the natural beauty of cedar and redwood with lower maintenance costs and hassle, LP Elements fencing eliminates the need to re-stain.
