Composite Shutters Provide the Look of Wood with Added Durability

For the natural appeal of wood shutters without the maintenance, composite shutters offer the best of both worlds. Composite shutters blend synthetic materials to achieve the aesthetic of wood with enhanced durability.

Composite shutters are made by bonding wood fibers, polymers, resin and other materials. This creates a shutter with the classic grain look of wood but with greater strength and weather-resistance. Composite shutters prevent the cracking, splintering, and rotting issues of real wood.

Benefits of Low-Maintenance Composite Shutters

What makes composite an advantageous alternative to natural wood shutters?

Realistic Wood Appearance

Mimics the handsome look of natural basswood or cedar:

• Features subtle wood grain patterns
• Stains or paints just like real wood
• Indistinguishable look of authentic timber

Resistance to Elements

Stands up to sun, rain, and humidity:

• Won’t warp or crack from temperature swings
• Resilient finish prevents UV damage over time
• Maintains integrity in damp climates

Enhanced Durability

Tougher and more impact-resistant than real wood:

• Withstands severe hail, storms, and flying debris
• Resists dings, fractures, termite damage
• Outperforms natural wood in toughness

Low Maintenance

No refinishing, staining, or frequent painting:

• Just occasional washing is required
• Finish won’t erode or peel over time
• Saves time and expense over wood’s upkeep

Get the natural beauty of real wood paired with superior durability by choosing composite shutters for long-lasting performance and style.
