Each porch flooring board has expansion beads built into it, enabling you to create the tight seams you want without risk of warping as the natural movement from (extremely minimal) moisture absorption occurs.
Thermory porch flooring boards include JEM (Joint End Matched) Joints that free you from joist requirements. JEM Joints interlock with each other, eliminating the need for joints to rest on joists and drastically decreasing waste.
Benchmark Ash and Pine are the natural results of the thermal modification process. Over time and left untreated, both will slowly turn a stunning grey. To protect the color, simply oil with a penetrating UV protectant.
Benchmark Ash is the most natural result of Thermory’s thermal modification process. Innovative installation solutions such as JEM Joints and expansion beads not only make installation quick and painless, they also help ensure that your porch floor will lay flat and stay smooth for decades. As an added bonus, Benchmark Ash is truly stunning in color and appearance. Basically, you get everything you didn’t think you could get from real wood porch flooring.

Benchmark Pine sets the golden brown standard for softwood. The thermal modification process leaves it highly durable and stable (with 20+ years of rot resistance), and the built-in expansion beads give each board a little wiggle room to account for natural movement and prevent warping. You get the stunning appeal of natural pine, with added confidence that your porch floor will outlast and perform other softwood decks.
