What is the formula of WPC decking or other WPC Products?
The formula of each factory is actually different, and the different formula also affects the price of the product, we think good WPC product must be added with a certain dose of antioxidants, anti-ultraviolet agents, etc., the general formula of our WPC DECKING we sell is 55% Wood Power +35%HDPE +10%Additives,.
The usual WPC Decking sizes are as follow：
138X23mm, 140X20mm, 140X25mm,140x40mm, 150X25mm, 146X22mm,146X31mm,etc.
After the WPC board is produced from the extruder, it generally needs to be polished, This make the plastic off the surface, and the factory will use a grinding machine to treat the opposite sides of each board, It should be pointed out here that the WPC joist does not make such a treatment.
Also, on the flat side of the wood-plastic decking, out of beauty or the pursuit of similar wood effects, The factory will generally press the wood grain on it, and the wood grain has the ordinary wood texture and 3D embossing texture points.

Many people ask what Capped WPC decking and interlocking WPC decking tiles are? What do they mean? Are they the same WPC decking?
Yes Capped WPC decking and interlocking WPC decking tiles are also WPC decking, but there are Some difference between them.
1:For capped composite decking,It is produced via a co-extrusion process where a 360 degree outer armour is used to protect the core of the deck from the elements. As a result to be color fade resistant, strength load resistant, stain resistant and also highly slip resistant.
Capped WPC decking protective layer: the protective layer of capped composite decking with special formula, create clear wood grain and natural color, at the same time four-sided coating, all-round protection plate, more wear-resistant, anti-scratch, anti-stain. In crowded areas, can effectively prevent people and hard objects caused by the scratch, more can withstand the nature of all kinds of bad test.

2: For interlocking WPC decking tiles, it is a combination of WPC board and plastic base, installation without the need of keel and screws, etc., only need to splice the installation can, the surface of the board has 72 X11mm,55X10mm, WPC boards placed in the plastic base fixed by screws, commonly used decking tiles there are300X300X22mm, 600X300X22mm,etc.Surfaces of the plate can be grooved, or with WOOD texture.
The difference between WPC Decking and anticorrosive wood:
1:The loss of composite profile is lower than that of anticorrosive wood：
Under the condition of equal construction area and volume, the loss of WPC is less than that of anticorrosive wood. because plastic wood is profile, according to the actual size needs of different indoor and outdoor projects, the length, width, thickness of the material produced in accordance with the need and the length of anticorrosive wood is specified dead, generally 2 meters,3 meters,4 meters.
2:Plastic wood is a kind of composite profile, many hollow specifications can Save a lot of materials;
Aluminum alloy doors and Windows can be so quick popularization is known to all, because is hollow profiles, if be solid, so the price is incredible high . Plastic wood hollow savings, although not as high as aluminum alloy, but also more objective. We all know that hollow can not only reduce weight, plastic wood can be hollow, and anticorrosive wood is impossible.
3:The WPC surface does not need to be painted
General anticorrosive wood construction finished or construction process should be painted on the wood surface or painted with water-based paint.
4:WPC products are maintenance-free
Anticorrosive wood due to ambient temperature and humidity and solar ultraviolet radiation, generally in one year need to do maintenance or paint. In the long run, the maintenance cost of plastic wood is far lower than that of anticorrosive wood products.
5:The dismantled wood plastic can also be recycled to reduce the consumption of resources, in line with the concept of environmental protection, low carbon and economic。
The production of WPC decking is made by extruders at high temperatures .material is made of wood powder, High density PE and additives.

3.Why the keel is neceary for the intallation?
When we install the flooring, firstly the keels are fixed on the ground surface and then we put the Hollow or solid decking board on the keels. You know the wpc decking board can’t be put on the ground surface directly. For one thing, it can affect of the planeness of the flooring surface after installation. For the other thing, it is not good to control the drainage of the bottom, because the wpc decking board is mainly used for outdoor, which rains a lot. So keels must be used to hold the solid decking board when installed.
