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.
Thermory’s expert thermal modification process alters every board using just heat and steam to result in unequalled durability and dimensional stability. Then, through meticulous milling, exceeds your expectations for smoothness, flatness, and straightness.
Expansion Beads to Prevent Warping
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.
JEM Joints Make Installation a Breeze
Thermory porch flooring boards include Joint End Matched joints that free you from joist requirements. JEM Joints interlock with each other, removing the need for joints to rest on joists and drastically resulting in less waste.
Gorgeous Color Evolution
Benchmark Pine is 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 Pine Porch Flooring 5/4x5
Wood’s natural aging process is influenced by how much exposure it has to the elements. The more Benchmark Pine is exposed to UV light and rain, the faster its color will transform from brown to silver—sometimes in as little as six months. To maintain your wood’s natural color outdoors, simply treat the boards with a penetrating UV protective oil.
