Black PVC Trim: Meet EverBlack PVC™

Black exterior accents aren’t going anywhere. For builders, that has created a practical challenge: how do you get the look of black trim without relying on painted white PVC or switching to a material that doesn’t install and perform the way PVC does?

That gap is exactly where EverBlack PVC™ fits.

Available exclusively through GR Mitchell, EverBlack PVC™ is fully extruded black PVC trim that is black through and through, smooth on all four sides, and designed to install and maintain just like the white PVC builders already know.

And as demand for black exterior trim continues to grow, builders have more opportunities to use it across the exterior of a home.

Why Black PVC Trim?

Black has moved well beyond a passing exterior design trend. According to the 2026 U.S. Houzz Outdoor Trends Study, black became the most popular exterior trim color among surveyed homeowners completing or planning exterior projects. Thirty-nine percent selected black trim over other colors, up 17 percentage points from 2024.

For builders, delivering that look hasn’t always been as straightforward as choosing the color.

One option is painting traditional white PVC. Another is selecting a black exterior trim product with a surface finish or texture that may not provide the same appearance or workability builders expect from standard PVC.

EverBlack PVC™ offers another option: a cellular PVC trim product designed to give builders the black finish they want while handling like the white PVC they’re already accustomed to using.

Black Through and Through

The biggest difference is in the material itself.

EverBlack PVC™ isn’t a white board with a black coating applied over it. The material is fully extruded in black, meaning the color runs throughout the board.

Boards and sheets are smooth on all four sides, rather than alternative products that have a smooth face with a textured reverse side. This provides builders more flexibility when fabricating or installing exposed pieces where multiple sides of the material may be visible.

Boards include a protective film on one face to help protect the finished surface during shipping and handling.

Work With It Like White PVC

EverBlack PVC™ is designed to be cut, fabricated, installed and maintained the same way you would standard white PVC trim. There isn’t a new installation technique for contractors to learn, making it an easy material to adapt to.

Matching black plugs and additional accessories are also available to help create a clean finished installation.

Where Can Builders Use Black PVC?

One of the advantages of black PVC is its versatile application. EverBlack PVC™ is available in trim boards, sheets, beadboard and other options that open up a range of exterior applications.

• Window and Door Trim: Black trim can create definition around windows and doors without requiring a painted PVC finish. EverBlack PVC™ trim boards can be fabricated for traditional surrounds, while black brick moulding provides another option around both windows and exterior doors. GR Mitchell can also fabricate custom PVC window surrounds for builders looking to reduce field assembly.
• Deck Fascia: Black fascia can provide a clean transition around decks, particularly when paired with darker railing systems, decking details or other black exterior accents. Because EverBlack PVC™ works like standard PVC, builders can incorporate the material without changing their typical approach.
• Porch Ceilings: EverBlack PVC™ beadboard provides a way to bring black into covered porch ceilings and similar applications. It can be especially useful on projects where black windows, doors, roofing or other architectural elements already establish a darker exterior palette.
• Exterior Trim and Custom Details: Trim boards and PVC sheets give builders additional flexibility for fascia, exterior accents and fabricated trim details. GR Mitchell also offers custom EverBlack PVC™ column wraps for 6x, 8x and 10x posts. The available product range includes 1x and 5/4 trim boards in multiple widths and 18-foot lengths, along with PVC sheets, beadboard, brick moulding and matching installation accessories.

The Story Behind EverBlack PVC™

GR Mitchell introduced EverBlack PVC™ in 2025 after seeing an opportunity for a better black PVC option in the exterior building materials market.

Builders were already familiar with the advantages of white PVC, while black exterior details were becoming increasingly prominent in residential design. EverBlack PVC™ brought those two needs together: a black-through PVC product with four smooth sides that builders could handle just like the white PVC already on their jobsites.

Since its introduction, demand for the product has grown quickly. GR Mitchell has received interest from builders well beyond its traditional South Central Pennsylvania market, reinforcing what broader exterior-design data is showing: builders and homeowners are looking for more ways to incorporate black trim into their projects.

Today, GR Mitchell is the exclusive source for EverBlack PVC™, serving builders throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware and beyond.
