Like a beautifully crafted piece of fine furniture, Zuri Premium Decking is designed for people with a discerning eye for exquisite detail.

"No other vinyl or wood composite product comes close to capturing the authentic colors and natural grain textures of exotic timber that Zuri offers," said John Dybsky, director of marketing for Royal's Moulding, Trim and Decking products.

Zuri Premium Decking has a high-resolution wood grain finish that replicates the grain of premium wood species without a repeat patterning. The deck planks are engineered to be highly durable, resisting stains, fade, rot and natural wear. Zuri Premium Decking comes with a 25-year structural-performance and color-fastness warranty.

For sustainability-minded homeowners, architects and building contractors, "Zuri replicates the natural, exotic colors and textures of hardwoods without depleting the availability of these natural resources for future generations," Dybsky said.

Zuri Premium Decking is available in five colors: Chestnut, Walnut, Pecan, Brazilia and Weathered Gray. The planks, which are installed using a hidden fastener system, are five-quarter-inch nominal thickness and come in lengths of 16 and 20 feet.

Zuri Premium Decking by Royal will be available initially in the northeastern United States, and is being distributed by Mid-State Lumber (http://www.midstatelumber.com/).
