主权项

1. A building product comprising a body having a length and width both greater than a thickness thereof, the body having a first outer surface bordered by the body length and width, and having a first surface area, and a second outer surface bordered by the body length and width, juxtaposed with the first outer surface thereof, and having a second surface area, the building product comprising:
an oriented polymer composition forming the body comprising long chain polymer strands that are aligned with the length of the board; and a plurality of oriented polymer composition fibrils extending from at least one of the first or second outer surfaces on substantially the entire first or second surface area; wherein the fibrils extending from the at least one of the first or second outer surfaces provide an aesthetic representative of a real wood split surface.
