Material Revolutionizing Exterior Design
For a castellated or shiplap woodgrain look that makes no compromises when it comes to protection, choose Wood Polymer Composite for your next cladding, decking, or fencing project.
What is Wood Polymer Composite?
A Timeless Look, Built To Last.
Architects, contractors, and property owners all agree: nothing beats the warm aesthetic of wood. But what if we could achieve that look without sacrificing durability—with a product that will not rot or require repainting? Wood Polymer Composite, such as the durable WPC Decking Board, offers an authentic wood finish for decking with the strength to survive any exterior environment, alongside other applications like cladding and fencing.
Wood Polymer Composition
Wood Polymer is made by mixing the polymer with wood shavings. The ratio between these two materials ranges from 4:1 to 3:2, resulting in a dense and sturdy composition. A waterproof plastic cap is wrapped around each board, and textured to emulate different grains of wood.
Wood polymer composite is also known by various names, including wood plastic composite.

Fencing With Style
Chose from a wide array of colors and finishes. Accent your fencing with bold covers and caps that either compliment or contrast the natural quality of the Wood Polymer.
