Wood-plastic composite (WPC) material is a new type of environmentally friendly material that can be used for flooring, wall panels, fencing, etc. It is widely applied in outdoor courtyards, landscape gardens, parks, commercial spaces, and is closely related to our daily lives. In recent years, WPC deck floor, with its unique advantages and broad application prospects, has become a rising star in the building materials market. WPC deck floor not only combines the natural texture and warmth of traditional wood flooring but also possesses the durability and waterproof characteristics of plastic materials, making it an ideal choice for both indoor and outdoor decoration. Many people still have doubts about WPC materials, so today we will take WPC deck floor as an example to explain a few frequently asked questions about it;


What is the difference between WPC deck floor and ordinary wood flooring?


WPC deck floor can effectively eliminate the natural defects of real wood, featuring waterproof, fire-resistant, high mechanical performance, strong corrosion resistance, and high pollution resistance. It does not crack or deform. It also requires no maintenance or upkeep, is easy to clean, can be recycled and reused, and its surface has been specially treated so it can be used directly without painting.


Is WPC deck floor really waterproof? Can it be used around water environments?


WPC deck floor can indeed be used around water environments. The water absorption rate of WPC deck floor is only 0.24%, which is much lower than that of ordinary wood flooring. This low absorption rate allows WPC deck floor to be used in water environments. One of its raw materials is HPDE plastic particles, which provide excellent waterproofing during use.


Can WPC deck floor be used outdoors? Will it fade when used outdoors?


WPC deck floor is specifically produced for outdoor use. Outdoor platforms such as the Beijing Bird's Nest, the China Pavilion at the Shanghai Expo, the Jingshan Park stairs in Beijing, and the National Forest Park all have WPC deck floor installed.


WPC deck floor incorporates UV inhibitors during production, allowing it to resist ultraviolet rays outdoors and preventing easy fading. Its color fastness reaches level 4, with level 5 being the highest.


Does WPC deck floor need to be painted and maintained annually?


WPC deck floor does not require painting and maintenance. The inherent stability of the flooring eliminates the need for painting to maintain its performance. Additionally, WPC deck floor's color can be customized in various shades, removing the inconvenience of annual painting and maintenance.
