Replacing Wood For Good™

When you choose Ply Gem Trim and Mouldings,

you get more than an easy install. You get a

product that’s made to match your desired

results. It’s an extensive offering that’s beautifully

constructed and as easy to work with as wood.

What’s more, you can forget about costly

maintenance. Our cellular PVC products don’t

absorb moisture so they won’t rot, crack or warp.

Unlike engineered wood, they don’t attract insects

and don’t contain chemicals like treated wood.

And if you decided to paint them, Ply Gem Trim

and Mouldings hold paint much better than wood.

Read on to find out how our extensive offering of

BuildReady™ and DesignReady™ products provides

unique solutions for builders and fabricators.

When painting a darker color with a Light Reflecting Value (LRV) less than 55, use industry-proven finishes such as Sherwin-Williams® VinylSafe™ paints. They’re available in a wide range of colors and designed to protect PVC trim from heat distortion.

Cellular PVC will expand and contract in hot and cold temperatures. So it’s important to join and fasten our products as recommended.
