Wood plastic composites are processed lumber or timber made out of recycled plastic and wood wastes. It is a non-pollution material that replaces the application of real wood.
WPCs are true composite materials and have properties of both materials. They have stiffness and strength between those for plastic or wood, but the density is generally higher than either. The properties of Wood Plastic Composites come directly from their structure: they are intimate mixes of wood particles and plastic. Water can only be absorbed into the exposed sections of wood and is not transmitted across the plastic boundaries. The result is that WPCs are extremely water resistant, have little thickness swell in water and do not suffer from fungal or insect attack.
