Plastic Post & Rail Fencing
a beautiful alternative to split rail vinyl fencing
|
 |
| A farm in rural Pennsylvania with recycled plastic fencing |
|
| Benefits:
No more staining, painting, or rotting posts and rails. This unique & environmentally friendly product will maintain its beauty year after year. No need to replace fence rails or plastic posts after only a few years of service.
Unlike pressure treated wood, there are no hazardous chemicals to leach out.
Our recycled plastic fencing is made by a high-tech process designed to make the plastic posts and rails look like they were cut from actual redwood trees. Fence stock is cut and shaped to make uniformly fitting posts and rails. Standard woodworking tools can be used to easily cut, staple or screw into the fence. Insulators are not required for electric fence installation. Plastic posts are virtually solid and do not need timber or metal inserts.

The plastic post and rail fence and the vineyard poles are specifically designed and manufactured to give the appearance of being made from real trees. That is why these products have a nominally round shape. The diameters are specifically made to vary along the length of the product, and are made to be irregular. Stated diameters of these products are the target ranges used in the manufacturing process. Actual diameters will vary within and around these ranges.
Fencing may exhibit slight bending. This will not affect performance and is strictly cosmetic.

Easy Installation!
Our plastic wood fence is easy to install:
1) Lay out hole locations eight feet apart.
2) Dig holes at least three feet deep.
3) Insert the first post in a hole, fill the hole with dirt, and tamp down the soil. Make sure that the pole is vertical and plumb and the fence holes are aligned on the fence line.
4) Set the next post in the adjacent hole.
5) As with construction lumber, some rails will have a crown. Install the rails with the crown up.
6) Insert the lower rail into the lower of the holes of the two posts. Next, insert the top rail into the top holes of the posts. Make sure the rails extend through the posts about two inches.
7) Plumb the post, fill and tamp the hole.
8) Repeat to create your fence line.

Bio: Patrick Kelley, inventor of rustic-looking plastic fencing:
Pat has a B.S. degree in chemical engineering from Worcester Polytechnic Institute and an MBA from Rutgers University. His early work experience was with various chemical processing companies. He then spent sixteen years with Mobil Chemical Company in the plastics division where he worked mainly on the extrusion of blown film. In 1992 he left Mobil to start his own plastics processing company. Pat is the sole proprietor of Waste Not Technologies, LLC located in Saylorsburg PA. The company manufactures post and rail fence from recycled HDPE; mostly post consumer milk jugs. Pat has two patents for plastic products. His association with Northampton Community College began in 1992 when he taught his first course in “Polymer Processing”. Since that time he has also taught “Introduction to Plastics” and several levels of mathematics. Pat is an active member of The Society of Plastics Engineers, and currently serves as president of the Lehigh Valley chapter. He also serves on the advisory board for the Emerging Technology Application Center at Northampton Community College, and the Solid Waste Advisory Committee of Monroe County, PA.

According to the EPA website and their on-line calculator to determine the greenhouse gas benefit of our recycled plastic wood fence, the following results were determined:
As of January, 2009, we have recycled 123,454 pounds of plastic into fence. That results in a greenhouse gas benefit equal to 28 passenger cars not driven for one year.
Therefore, if you purchase 600 ft of three rail fence, or 850 ft of two rail fence, you will have contributed the greenhouse gas benefit equal to one passenger car not driven for one year.
