WPC material has the advantages of good durability, safety and reliability. Its good appearance and decorative performance are a natural substitute for the preservative wood used in the garden. We know that the WPC decking imported from China is usually 138X23mm Solid or 88X23mm Solid, and the length is generally 5.4m,5.7m, or 5.8 meters Per PC.
In Australia, WPC is more and more widely used, WPC can build Road flooring, WPC houses, Outdoor railings, Park chairs, flower boxes and so on.
Some of the Australian WPC brands, like newtechwood, modwood, bunning, they also have In operating 138x23mm solid wpc decking, this type of floor has higher strength, and it has more than 5 colors Choose,Many Australians buy 138X23mm wpc board for their house decks.
Pros of WPC decking in Australia:
- The main advantage is that WPC requires less maintenance i.e. does not need to be re-coated on a regular basis and should be more durable. However it is not “maintenance free”.
- It is meant to be resistant to rot and decay from borers and termites.
- It is often made using recycled plastic such as water bottles etc., so are considered better for the environment.
- A variety of colours available.
Wpc material Can reduce the environmental pollution caused by waste plastic, therefore ,composite material is a kind of green environmental protection material which can save energy and protect the environment.
WPC has certain plastic properties, so the material will have a certain curvature when the length is greater than 3m. During installation, the deformation of the material must be fully considered due to the thermal and cold shrinkage of the WPC material, with a suitable gap between the two boards, otherwise it is easily caused WPC board deformation.
In Australia, when you choose material for building a DECK, what are the points to consider?
1,If Material is maintenance free. 2, The deck board surface looks like solid wood, allowing the WPC board to restore the natural wood feel.3, board material is no water seepage, no deformation, no decay, anti-decolorization, termite resistance 4,If material Pass BAL 29 fire test 5, If material pass R11 anti-skid test 6, Safe and non-toxic, with a formaldehyde release amount of 0.00 mg/L 7, fast heat dissipation, board should be suitable for extreme weather in Australia.
