Polywood is an engineered wood substitute. Stronger than wood, Polywood won’t warp, chip, crack, or peel. It is fireproof, waterproof and termite proof. Polywood provided Sunburst Shutter with the edge they needed to distance themselves from their competitors in the shutter industry.
The advantage of Polywood to the company was simple. Polywood was a better material, and required significantly less labor. Although the material itself cost twice as much as wood, the labor savings are so significant that the final product cost is actually less than wood. This made Polywood the best choice for customers and shutter fabricators.
Polywood was designed as an insulating system. Special care was made to make sure it blocked out more air flow and reflected more temperature out of the window than other treatments. Eveything about its design was intended to reduce the heat loss or gain in the home. Numerous advancements in technology were used, and the Polywood Shutter Insulating System was born.
Currently, Sunburst Shutters has 35 retail stores in North America and have licensed more than 75 companies to sell the Polywood Shutter Insulating System. In addition, Sunburst Shutters’ Polywood shutters and other shutter products are available through select Home Depot, Lowe’s, Calico Corners, AmericanBlinds.com and other locations nationwide. |
