Wood-Plastic Composites

Wood-plastic composites maybe one of the most dynamic sectors of today’s plastic industry. Although the technology is not new, there is growing interest in the new design possibilities this mariage of materials offers. The production of WPC typically uses a fine wood waste(cellulose-based fiber fillers such as hardwood, softwood, plywood, peanut hulls, bamboo, straw, etc.) mixed with various plastics (PP, PE, PVC). The powder is extruded to a dough-like consistency and then extruded to the desired shape.
