Specification of Decking WPC
WPC Wood-Plastic Composite or WPC wood flooring, consisting of polyethylene (PE) and sawdust which is more often used in building and structural components. Meanwhile, WPC consisting of sawdust and polypropylene (PP), is more commonly used for automotive products. In addition, sawdust and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) form WPC which is usually found in window manufacturing, as well as certain decking applications (WPC Decking or WPC decking). The combination of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and wood powder produces WPC or wood composites that can be used in a variety of applications.
The differences in the surface of the natural structure of wood and the matrix of plastic polymers determine the results of the physical properties of each composite formed. Therefore, the various advantages that have been successfully formed have made WPC Decking a choice that is always available for every wooden decking. The following are the advantages of WPC and WPC Decking:
Durable
Compared to wooden decks, decks with WPC have a longer (durable) life. WPC Decking is made from a combination of vinyl, wood and other recycled compressed material. Because it combines wood and plastic, WPC is more durable in the sun, rain and wind compared to the wooden deck.
Cost effective
In general, wood or WPC composites are somewhat cheaper than wood. WPC can be recycled 100% and can be reproduced. In addition, WPC can also be a business and the best for long-term investment. Because WPC was developed based on complaints that occur due to wooden decks, WPC decking does not require extra care.
Uniformity and Color Durability
WPC has a variety of different panel sizes and can be used both indoors and outdoors. The color does not fade quickly. Many people have more wood composites because of the color uniformity between one deck and another.
Pest and Damage Control
High resistance to water and household chemicals makes WPC not easily damaged (the possibility of cracking is very small) and still has a sturdy shape even though it is designed for outdoor. In addition, WPC also has good resistance to termites, fungi, and pests because the manufacturing process that is passed and the material used has made WPC naturally protect itself from termites, fungi, and pests.
With the advantages possessed by this WPC, PT Kayu Asri Indonesia is trying its best to meet the needs of consumers. Because WPC is a manufactured product, this product is constantly being improved and tested. PT Kayu Asri Indonesia will ensure that consumer needs for WPC or other wooden floors can be met to the maximum.
