Description
This premium wood plastic composite (WPC) with 30% polypropylene offers a tough, stable and attractive solution for a wide range of outdoor and industrial applications. Combining natural wood fibres with a durable plastic matrix, it delivers the appearance of timber with the enhanced performance of engineered materials.
Supplied in round profiles with diameters of 25 mm, 30 mm and 50 mm and a standard 2000 mm length, this WPC material is ideal for use in structural, decorative and protective components exposed to the elements. Its excellent weather resistance, low maintenance requirements and consistent quality make it a reliable choice for exterior projects and demanding environments.
Product Features
- Wood plastic composite formulation containing 30% polypropylene for enhanced strength and durability.
- Available in three standard diameters: 25 mm, 30 mm and 50 mm to suit a range of design requirements.
- Supplied in a convenient 2000 mm length for straightforward cutting, machining and installation.
- Weather-resistant construction suitable for continuous outdoor exposure.
- Dimensional stability helps minimise warping, swelling and shrinkage compared with traditional timber.
- Consistent round profile ideal for posts, rails, spacers and decorative elements.
- Low-maintenance material that does not require regular painting, staining or sealing.
Key Features and Benefits
- Long service life in outdoor conditions, reducing replacement frequency and overall lifecycle cost.
- Resistant to moisture and rot, making it suitable for damp environments and exposed installations.
- Improved impact and abrasion resistance versus standard softwood, helping components withstand everyday wear.
- Easy to cut, drill and fix using standard woodworking tools, simplifying fabrication and on-site adjustments.
- More consistent quality than natural timber, with fewer imperfections and a uniform profile along the full 2000 mm length.
- Helps reduce maintenance time, as surfaces typically only require periodic cleaning rather than full refinishing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this wood plastic composite be used in all weather conditions?
Yes, the material is designed for outdoor use and offers good resistance to moisture, rain and general weathering. As with any exterior material, performance is improved by following recommended installation and support practices.
How do I cut and fix the WPC profiles on site?
The profiles can be cut, drilled and machined using standard woodworking tools such as saws and drills. They can be fixed with appropriate screws or mechanical fixings, ensuring adequate support along the 2000 mm length to prevent undue bending.
Does the material require painting or special surface treatments?
No specific surface treatment is required for protection, and the material is generally low maintenance. If a particular colour or finish is desired, suitable exterior coatings compatible with plastic-based substrates may be applied following the coating manufacturer’s guidance.
