Where is was used?” open=”no”]
A: Wood-plastic composite is a building material that is formed by extrusion of plastic and wood fiber in a certain proportion. It comes with water resistance feature as plastic while has wood texture feeling. Now it is first choice for outdoor building materials (floors, fences, benches or waterfronts, etc.)
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q2: What colors are available for wood-plastic composite? Do you need paint it?” open=”no”]
A: Unlike wood, wood plastic composite have a variety of colors to choose from without painting (sometimes different colors can affect the price). No need to paint.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q3: Will wood plastic fade?” open=”no”]
A: Yes. Wood that is exposed to sunlight and moisture will fade slightly after 10~12 weeks, after which the color will not change.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q4: Is wood-plastic composite more flammable than wood?” open=”no”]
A: Wood-plastic composite profiles are Class C building materials with similar combustion to wood. Through the burning characteristics experiment, wood plastic composite is not so flammable than wood. The burning temperature of wood plastic needs to reach 86 degrees.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q5: Do you need quarantine when export? Need fumigation? Need any special documentation?” open=”no”]
A: No, unlike natural wood, wood-plastic composite products are produced at high temperatures and are environmentally friendly. They do not require any special documentation.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q6: Is wood plastic composite made of recycled materials?” open=”no”]
A: Yes. Wood plastic is processed from natural plastic fiber such as recycled plastic and waste wood chips or rice bran.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q7: What is the difference between wood plastic composite and plastic wood?” open=”no”]
A: Unlike plastic wood (made of 100% plastic), wood plastic composite is made from plastic and wood chips in a ratio of approximately 1: 1 .
Because of the natural fiber component, wood-plastic composite has better UV resistance and lower thermal expansion and contraction properties, and is easy to process like wood.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q8: What is the shape of wood plastic composite? What is the regular size?” open=”no”]
Answer: Since Wood plastic is extruded and its shape is determined by the mold. The common floor sizes of the new generation of wood are 140 × 23, 145 x 21, etc. The common types of columns are 90 × 90, 120 × 120 and so on. Special shape sizes can be obtained by customizing the mold.
Wood plastic composite length can be cut base on customers request. but the size is generally controlled within 3 meters due to shipping.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q9: How long is the life of outdoors wood-plastic composite?” open=”no”]
A: Wood-plastic is widely used outdoors, and most of it is used in crowded public places. In this high-density occasion, the life of wood-plastic composite can reach 10 years. when used for indoor or private place, Wood plastic composite can last up to 15 years where there is less traffic.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q10: Is wood plastic composite an environmentally friendly material? How to dispose of discarded wood-plastic composite? Is abandoned wood plastic composite a pollution to environment?” open=”no”]
Answer: The environmental protection significance of wood-plastic composite is multiple. On the one hand, it consumes waste plastic composite and wood powder that pollute the environment. On the other hand, it can effectively replace the use of wood outdoors, thus saving a lot of valuable natural resources. Since it does not contain any toxic components, it can be treated the same as other common construction waste without any pollution to the environment. And wood plastic composite can be recycled and reused.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q11: What is the weight of wood-plastic composite compared to general wood?” open=”no”]
Answer: Compared with general wood, wood-plastic composite is much more heavier, usually above 1.2, and the general wood has a specific gravity of 0.4-0.7. Even for hardwood with a large specific gravity, the specific gravity is only about 1.0. Therefore, the same volume of wood plastic composite is much heavier.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q12: How to process wood plastic composite? Need any special tools?” open=”no”]
A: Wood-plastic composite is as easy as wood to process, Wood plastic composite can be cut, drilled, etc. with ordinary woodworking tools.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q13: What type of screw is suitable for wood-plastic composite?” open=”no”]
A: It is recommended to use high quality screws such as stainless steel and hot-dip galvanizing. It is especially recommended to use threaded screws to help increase the nail holding power of the screws.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q14: Can wood-plastic profiles be used as structural parts?” open=”no”]
A: No. Although ordinary wood-plastic composite have high strength and toughness, they do not have the same rigidity compare with wood, and therefore it cannot be used as structural members. However, the modified glass-reinforced wood has a high rigidity and can be used for structural parts.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q15: Do you need to leave a gap when installing?” open=”no”]
Answer: Yes, considering of drainage, cleaning and slight thermal expansion/contraction etc, when installing wood-plastic composite, there should be a proper gap between the head and the head. Wood plastic composite will not expand and contract in humidity and dryness environment, but it will expand and contract to a certain extent when temperature change, so when install leave gaps on the sides to the side and head to head, Pay special attention to this especially when installing in winter.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q16: Can wood-plastic composite bend?” open=”no”]
A: Yes. By heating, wood plastic can be bent to a certain extent.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q17: How should the wood-plastic composite be stored?” open=”no”]
A: Wood-plastic composite are much heavier and have better toughness than wood. Therefore, when storing wood plastic composite, especially for long-term storage, it should be placed on a flat surface to prevent deformation.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q18: Is the water absorption rate high for wood composite plastic?” open=”no”]
Answer: Because of the plastic layer wrapped around natural fibers such as wood fiber, the water absorption rate of wood plastic is very low. Very suitable for waterfront landscapes.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q19: Does cold weather affect wood plastic composite?” open=”no”]
Answer: Wood-plastics composite perform well even in low-temperature weather. However, because plastics account for more than 50% of wood-plastic components, it is difficult to punch holes in extremely cold weather. In this case, Pre-drilling is recommended.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Q20: How to maintain wood plastic composite?” open=”no”]
A: Even in the outdoors, the wood plastic composite will not rot, chip or crack, it is UV resistance, very easy to handle.
