WPC Decking
WPC is short for Wood Plastic Composite, where 60% - 70% of it is made out of wood fibre, recycled plastic and other additives. It is an eco-friendly outdoor flooring material made with co-extrusion technology, a technique in which two or more polymer materials are pushed together to form a multilayer structure, making it three to four times more scratch-resistant than a normal deck.
Benefits of WPC Decking:
- Durability: WPC decking is highly durable and can withstand heavy foot traffic, harsh weather conditions, and UV radiation without warping, cracking or fading.
- Low maintenance: WPC decking requires minimal maintenance as it does not require regular staining or sealing, unlike traditional wood decking.
- Aesthetically pleasing: WPC decking comes in a variety of colors, textures, and styles that can complement the overall design of a villa outdoors. It can be made to look like real wood and provide the same warmth and feel without the drawbacks of real wood.
- Eco-friendly: WPC decking is made from recycled materials such as wood fibers and plastic, making it a sustainable and environmentally friendly option. If you’re someone who is concerned about your carbon footprint, do consider WPC for your balcony decking and other outdoor flooring needs.
- Slip-resistant: The surface of WPC decking is slip-resistant, making it safe to walk on even when wet.
- Resistant to insects and rot: WPC decking is resistant to termites, ants, and other insects that can damage traditional wood decking. It is also resistant to rot and decay.
How To Maintain WPC Decking?
When it comes to choosing the right material for your outdoor flooring, be it for balcony decking or poolside decking, its maintenance requirement is very important because you wouldn’t want to spend hours and lots of money on keeping it clean and in tip-top condition. The good news is, WPC decking doesn’t require special treatment for maintenance. Regular cleaning such as sweeping, vacuuming and light scrubbing with water and a soft bristle brush is enough to remove dirt and prevent the buildup of stubborn stains. A simple spray with a high-pressure water hose would suffice too.
