OSSIAN, Indiana, January 8, 2024 — Perma-Column deck posts are one of the most innovative deck-building products of 2023, a panel of expert judges determined at the International Pool | Spa | Patio Expo™, co-located with Deck Expo. The quickest way to build deck foundations, Perma-Column precast concrete deck posts eliminate the hassles of mixing and pouring concrete on the job site. The ICC-ES-certified deck posts enable and empower builders to build decks faster, sell more decks, and make more money.

“Enabling builders to install deck foundations faster and more efficiently has always been our goal,” Perma-Column President Mark Stover said. “Our product accelerates the deck-building process, and that stands out to the experts in deck building.

The PSP/Deck Expo awards honored innovative products that embody excellence and offer groundbreaking solutions. In honoring Perma-Column deck posts, the judges noted: “Perma-Column has an awesome approach. It has created a solution that is easier to use than the traditional way of pouring concrete. It’s a time saver and a high-quality way to do it. And the column will never be affected by rot, mildew or freeze-thaw.”
