WPC Decking. What is it and is it better than wood?

WPC (Wood Plastic Composite) decking is a durable and low-maintenance decking material made from a blend of wood fibers and plastic. It offers the natural appearance of wood while being resistant to rot, splintering, and insects, making it ideal for outdoor use, especially in harsh climates. WPC decking is eco-friendly, as it often incorporates recycled materials, and its weather resistance makes it a popular choice for tropical settings. Additionally, it requires minimal upkeep, as it doesn’t need painting, sealing, or staining, offering long-lasting performance with ease of maintenance.

By the end of the 80s WPC was becoming more popular for products such as door and window frames, park benches, and indoor furniture. In the early 1990s WPC composites were introduced into the decking market, while WPC for fencing and cladding solutions continued to gain popularity. Where normal timber can rot and warp, is prone to insect damage and requires regular maintenance, WPC dos not suffer from these issues.
Finally we have introduced these products into our kitset homes offering you better options at better prices.

Benefits of using WPC materials over Wood

Advantages of Using Composite Decking

Since composite decking boards are made of plastic, you don’t have to worry about it warping, kinking, splitting, or developing other defects. On top of that, you don’t have to treat it for termites or carpenter ants because these bugs won’t harm it. As a building material, it also offers several other advantages:

  • Low maintenance

Composite decking doesn’t need to be stained or refinished. Yes, you should wash it every once in a while using soapy water to keep it looking good.

  • Durable

Composite decking manufacturers go to great lengths to ensure that their products are more durable than wood. Composite decking can last up to thirty years with little to no problems. Pressure-treated wood decking, on the other hand, may last up to 15 years if you’re lucky.

  • Hidden Fasteners

Composite decking is carefully designed to work with hidden fasteners. These fasteners not only hold the composite decking in place at a very high level but also give you a complete and flawless look at the deck.
