WPC composite
Discover Wood-Plastic Composite (WPC) products: durable, eco-friendly, and low-maintenance alternatives to traditional wood. Ideal for fencing, WPC resists rot, UV damage, and stains while offering a sustainable, weather-resistant solution.
What is WPC?
Wood-Plastic Composite (WPC) is an innovative material that combines the natural aesthetics of wood with the durability and low maintenance of plastics. Produced by blending wood fibers, plastic resin, and additives, WPC products are molded into various shapes and forms, making them ideal for decking, fencing, cladding, and more.
The production process includes two primary techniques:
Traditional Extrusion: In this method, the WPC material is melted and extruded into a uniform cross-section, creating products with consistent properties throughout.
Coextrusion: This advanced technique involves adding a protective outer layer (capstock) to the WPC core during the extrusion process. The capstock enhances the product’s durability, color stability, and resistance to UV, stains, and scratches.
Advantages of WPC
WPC products deliver several benefits compared to traditional wood because of the composition between wood and plastic, combining these two creates a range of excellent properties that make WPC the best choice for residential or commercial fencing:
Durability: WPC resists rot, decay, and insect damage, unlike natural wood.
Low Maintenance: There’s no need for regular staining, painting, or sealing; simple cleaning keeps WPC looking great.
Weather Resistance: WPC is designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, including moisture and UV exposure, without warping or cracking.
Eco-Friendly: Many WPC products are made from recycled materials, reducing waste and supporting sustainability.
Aesthetic Versatility: Available in various colors, textures, and finishes, WPC mimics the beauty of wood without its drawbacks.
