About Supersede
Not Wood, Inc. makes structural panels from recycled plastic and sells them as Supersede boards. They replace plywood and OSB. The Marine Board is structural and waterproof. The USTA+ Board is lightweight and waterproof. Uses include decking, stringers, transoms, benches, cabinetry, wall sheathing and concrete forming boards. The boards serve boats, RVs, trailers and construction. Automotive engineers designed the technology, which lets small plants sit close to waste streams.
Not Wood is based in Phoenix, Arizona. Sean Petterson is the chief executive officer. The boards comply with ASTM standards for physical and mechanical properties. Buyers can contact the company to make a purchase. The company built its own factory operating system for recycled-plastic production.

Why Investors Backed Supersede
Not Wood, Inc. makes waterproof structural panels from recycled plastic and sells them under the Supersede name. The panels are meant to replace plywood and OSB in boats, RVs, trailers and construction. The company is based in Phoenix, Arizona. It also built its own factory software to run production.
The problem it targets
Supersede's case is that old building materials are obsolete and that the lumber supply chain has price swings and reliability problems. A University of Notre Dame student abstract on the company describes recycled polymer processing as technically complex, with volatile feedstock. The company's approach is to make boards from recycled plastic in small plants placed close to waste streams.
What the product does
Supersede's case is that its boards outperform wood-based sheathing on custom sizing, waterproofing, UV stability and fire resistance. The offer includes fixed pricing and an off-cut buy-back program. Inside the plant, a factory operating system classifies material in real time. It also generates recipes and adjusts machine settings.
Progress so far
Supersede has received awards. Its view is that the awards reflect real market validation. A University of Notre Dame graduate student's capstone project evaluates licensing the factory software to polymer manufacturers. The options are a B2B platform or a franchise framework. The student will research U.S. plastic compounding and extrusion operations as possible buyers. Buyers can contact Supersede to make a purchase.
