The Rise of WPC Decking in Modern Landscapes

With the rise of sustainable and eco-friendly materials demanded for the landscape design of the last couple of years we have seen the emergence of Wood Plastic Composite (WPC) decking. In the face of constant urbanization, the integration of environmental solutions such as WPC decking is necessary to accommodate the impact of construction projects on the environment.

WPC decking has a high component of recycled wood fibres and plastic, thus, requiring less virgin timber and reducing deforestation. This unique material saves natural resources and significantly reduces the pollution created by manufacturing and transporting raw wood. Using WPC decking, designers, and builders can also become part of a more sustainable future.

Components of WPC Decking

WPC, or Wood Plastic Composite, is a material that combines wood flour with PE (polyethylene) material. Wood fibers not only reduces dependence on forest resources, but also effectively utilizes waste materials, further enhancing the environmental performance of products. PE components ensure that WPC Decking can maintain its structural integrity and aesthetics under various harsh weather conditions. The unique combination of this material makes WPC Decking an ideal choice for outdoor flooring, meeting both aesthetic requirements and providing a long service life.

Why Choose INTCO WPC Decking

Choosing the right decking material is crucial for ensuring longevity, safety, and environmental responsibility in landscape design. INTCO WPC decking presents an ideal solution by addressing these key considerations effectively.

Environmental Sustainability

WPC material allows us to reduce cutting trees and preserve forest resources by replacing the wood with the composite. Moreover, manufacturing of WPC utilizes recyclable raw materials which help in reducing overall waste and carbon emissions. 

In addition, the long life of WPC decking ensures that it will not need replacing or treatment as often as natural wood. This means fewer resources are used over time, and less waste is dumped.

Weather Resistance and Durability

INTCO WPC decking comes with excellent resistance to weather, which is one of its biggest benefits. It is unaffected by the adverse conditions of outdoor exposure, including sunlight, rain, humidity and changes in temperature while retaining its color and structure. Its resistant qualities make it useful to many a different types of climates and this provides longevity for trails, terraces, and platforms throughout your landscape.

Safety and Slip Resistance

Whether it is a private or public outdoor space, the top priority is safety. INTCO WPC decking skin is non-absorbent, meaning that the water cannot get into the wood. This means that even in wet conditions, such as when it rains, or when there is a pool, the surface is not slippery and can be safely walked on. In contemporary landscapes where user safety is a prime consideration, this functionality is fundamental.

Ease of Installation

INTCO provides completeness support for various kinds of landscaping needs. Pre-configured systems containing all accessories and spares, make it easy to install. These systems provide versatility, and can be modified to suit many different environments from household gardens to massive commercial landscapes. Apart from the minimalist construction disruption, which the INTCO achieves through simplifying the installation process, it also ensures maximum efficiency.

Rich Appearance Applications

The natural beauty of WPC decking has a diverse range of appearances to complement just about any design and style. Because it can look like natural wood while also providing the advantages of composite materials, it is an attractive material for architects and designers. WPC decking comes in a wide assortment of colors, textures, and finishes that can match any style of landscape design, whether rustic or contemporary.

Tips for WPC Decking Maintenance

To maximize the lifespan and performance of your WPC decking, proper maintenance practices are essential. Here are some expert tips:

Routine Cleaning

Cleaning on a regular basis keeps your WPC decking looking good and working great. A simple detergent and warm water solution can be used to wipe down the underlying surface of dirt and debris. This makes a soft-bristle brush or a pressure washer on a low setting ideal for cutting tough, dirty sections without harming the material.

Avoid Scratching

Even though WPC decking takes longer to wore-out, it is better to avoid scratches and place protective pads beneath the legs of the furniture or move heavy stuff with care across the deck surface. Perform an inspection on the area for sharp objects or debris that can cause abrasions. Free the area from the substance that can cause abrasions

Mold Prevention

To avoid mold on your WPC decking, ensure there is good air circulation around the deck area. Clean-up leaves or organic matter quickly as it will hold moisture against the surface create mold. If mold does develop, clean it using a cleaner specifically intended for composites. In case any mold develops, make sure that you wash it off using a polymer cleaner

Water Management

Water management is another important aspect of keeping your decking in great condition for years to come. Make sure that gutters and downspouts are in working order to assist the deck in shedding water away from the deck. If you can, maintain a slight slope to avoid water pooling on the deck surface.
