Abstract
A method of manufacturing a component comprised of a substrate layer and a cap layer. In one exemplary embodiment, multiple co-extruded wood composite components may be formed simultaneously. In another exemplary embodiment, a component may have a substrate layer comprised of cellulosic material. The cap layer may also include cellulosic filler and at least one streaker. The resulting component may serve a variety of different uses. For example, the component may be used in railing systems such as for decks, porches, fences, stairs, or other suitable applications.
