WPC Board for Furniture
Wood is a most used material in interior design, but it's water absorbency regulates its use in bathrooms & kitchens, where natural wood easily becomes discolored or moldy. In response, scientists and material manufacturers have developed a wood-polymer composite board for furniture that is resistant to humidity and has low flammability.
Resource-saving, 100% recyclable Wood-Polymer Composites (WPCs) are the latest trend in materials for garden furniture and other outdoor applications, especially for terrace decking and also for weatherboarding and fencing panels.
These boards are made of around 60 percent wood particles and 40 percent thermoplastic material, generally polypropylene or polyethylene. Both wood and plastic components can be sourced from recycling streams.
Moreover, the pressed WPC boards produced by our company are formaldehyde-free. The controversial question of formaldehyde emissions due to the binder used in conventional pressed wood products is therefore not an issue in this case.
By incorporating appropriate additives, we were able to enhance the fire-retardant properties of WPC board. We developed this formula on a laboratory scale, using commercially available, halogen-free fire retardants which were added to the wood-polymer mixture during the melt phase.
Another particular feature of the new WPC material is that it absorbs very little water and is thus highly suitable for use in bathrooms and kitchens. Even after being immersed in boiling water for five hours, the material emerges intact, whereas conventional wood was completely destroyed by this test. The only limiting factor on applications of WPC is its inability to support high static loads. But even here, it has been possible to increase its bending strength to a level that far exceeds that of conventional particle board by utilizing a judicious mix of component materials.
Their popularity is ever increasing due to low maintenance, carpenter friendly, easy installation, light weight compared to wood & Plywood, high durability, and resistance to termites and other insect attacks, no seasonal bending, modern appearance, glossy and many more.
It is a versatile material with multiple application area. We can make all types of furniture using WPC like modular furnishing, bathroom vanities, kitchen cabinets, interior partitioning, shoe rack, wardrobes, cupboards, tables, chairs and any type of interior and exterior furniture.
