Imagine transforming your home’s outdoor space into a relaxing and inviting oasis just in time for summer. In conjunction with April’s Earth Day and Earth Month observances, Trex Company is teaming with celebrity landscape designer Carmen Johnston to make this dream a reality for one lucky outdoor living enthusiast through the “Trex x Carmen Johnston Spring Refresh Giveaway”.
“Founded on sustainable principles, Trex celebrates Earth Day every day, making our partnership with Carmen Johnston, who keeps sustainability at the forefront of her designs, a natural collaboration,” says Leslie Adkins, vice president of marketing and ESG development at Trex. “Between Carmen’s expertise, and the many products and resources available from Trex, the winner of this sweepstakes will receive all the guidance and tools they need to start planning their ideal outdoor living space.”
Founder and owner of Carmen Johnston’s Gardens, Johnston is an accomplished outdoor living designer whose work has been featured by such high-profile media outlets as Garden & Gun, Southern Living, Country Living and across HGTV’s magazine, television and social platforms. As the landscape expert for the HGTV Smart Home 2022 and 2023, Carmen has gained experience working with Trex’s extensive portfolio of outdoor living products while designing the homes’ exterior spaces.
“Creating beautiful spaces that encourage outdoor living and family memories—summer sunsets, s’mores, cozy fireside chats, spring in bloom—is my starting vision for every design,” says Johnston. “The team at Trex shares that vision, and they make it easier for homeowners to create their dream outdoor living spaces with products that are stylish, durable, hassle-free and easy on the environment.”
The entire portfolio of Trex composite decking is sustainably made from 95 percent recycled and reclaimed materials, including a mix of industrial wood scrap and discarded polyethylene plastic film from commercial packaging and common household items such as case overwraps, sandwich bags, newspaper sleeves and grocery bags. Each year, Trex saves nearly 1 billion (with a B!) pounds of these materials from winding up in landfills. One of the largest recyclers of plastic film in North America, Trex has upcycled in excess of 5 billion pounds of plastic filmwaste in the making of its outdoor living products over the past 30 years. Trex also operates a manufacturing process that is as green as its final product, with a proprietary method that recycles factory refuse back into the manufacturing line.
The winner of the “Trex x Carmen Johnston Spring Refresh Giveaway” will receive an outdoor living prize package consisting of a one-hour design consultation with Carmen Johnston, a Monterey Bay five-piece round bar set from the eco-friendly Trex Outdoor Furniture Collection, and a $200 gift card to help bring their space to life. Entrants who don’t win may still benefit from Johnston’s expertise by reviewing inspirational deck plans designed exclusively for Trex, showcasing how to create eco-friendly outdoor living areas for spaces of any size.
