When you want your dreams to last there is only one solution that will endure the test of time. More homeowners are discovering that vinyl is the smart alternative to wood. We manufacture all of our products by molding premium, hi-grade polymers around traditional structural elements to create the classic look of wood without the traditional maintenance. In other words, you get the classic look of wood without the headaches. Just the occasional rinse with a garden hose is all you need to do to keep your arbor looking great, and we back it all up with a 20 year warranty.
Like Wood, Only Better.
 Standing Up To Mother Nature
While wood can rot and warp, New England Arbors maintain their good looks year after year. Our arbors won’t crack, rot or delaminate - a promise we back up with a 20-year warranty.
A Traditional Problem
Traditional architectural styles are timeless. Unfortunately, traditional construction materials like wood don’t often stand a chance against severe weather, temperature extremes and destructive insects. If they do last, it’s your hard labor keeping them looking that way.
Combining Vintage Beauty with Hi-Tech Performance
You would never guess the beautiful products illustrated in this website were not hand-made by a master craftsman. Surprisingly, it’s the result of New England Arbortechnology. Our products are manufactured by molding premium high-grade polyvinyl and polyethylene around modern structural elements to provide long-lasting beauty, durability and quality.
 The Original. The Leader. The one to look for.
When you offer a better product, people take notice. So it’s no surprise that New England Arbors have been recognized by industry professionals as one of today’s finest vinyl arbor products. Whether you’re seeking a subtle accent or a bold centerpiece, you’ll find in our products classic design and durability without equal. So go ahead, bring your vision to life, and say something about your excellent taste in design by giving your home the natural-looking arbor you can be proud of for years to come.
