Wood-plastic is a composite material. made by the combination of wood powder/fibers with plastics. It is a waterproof and insect resistant material which neither corrode nor rot. What is more, it does not need to be painted or oiled and is molded and produced. in a variety of desired textures and designs.

By adding minerals and pigments to the structure of this composite, products with desired colors can be produced. Wood-plastic composites are new materials compared to the timber used by humans for construction for many years. Composites are materials that are made from a combination of two or more other materials to have the desired properties.
Wood-plastic composites were first introduced to the decking industry about thirty years ago. Manufacturers believe that Wood-plastic composites are more environmentally friendly than other wood alternatives and require less maintenance care. In the United States, plastic is mostly used in outdoor flooring and many other applications such as railing, fencing, covering and maintenance, beautification, park benches, windows and door frames, and interior furniture.

Depending on the application of Woodplastic composites, materials such as binders, pigments, UV stabilizers, lighteners, and oils are used in its production.

Wood-plastic composites can be produced from recycled plastics such as high-density or low-density polyethylene, PVC (polyvinyl chloride), ABS, polystyrene, polyethylene, etc., which the most common products are based on polyethylene.

The most common method for producing woodplastic composites with different cross-sections is the use of the extrusion method, in which wood particles and thermoplastic plastics are mixed and heated together and then removed from the mold in the desired shape. With wood plastics that are produced by the extrusion method, custom profiles can be produced for various applications.

Injection molding is another method of producing wood-plastic composites. Using the injection molding method, wood-plastic composites parts can be produced for various other applications, from the inner lining of the car door to the protective frame of the mobile phone.
