New England Arbors vinyl Arbors are made by molding premium high-grade polyvinyl and polyethylene around modern structural elements to provide long-lasting beauty, durability and quality.  Unlike wood, it will not weather, warp or delaminate over time.  It won't rot, nor will it change.  The only maintenance necessary might be a good hosing-down every few years. New England Arbors backs this statement with a 20-Year-Limited Warranty.  

Vinyl Arbors will last longer than wood and are virtually maintenance-free; no painting required - although they can be painted if desired.
