There are many people who love the feel and appearance of wood for their fence. Yet, the majority of those same people do not like the effort that’s involved with maintaining wood. That’s why some people choose a wood plastic composite fence instead, which has the same feel and look of a wide variety of woods, including pine, cedar, redwood and walnut with less maintenance cost. Nowadays, demand for wood plastic composite fencing is increasing rapidly across the world.
About Raw Material
Wood Fencing Material
Wood Fencing is taken from living trees and it is not environmental-friendly. That means that if you don’t look after the wood, the natural decomposing process is unstoppable. In most climates you must repair or replace areas of the wood that have rotted and prepare to treat the wood against termites and other insects every year to protect the life of the fence, but in harsher climates it’ll have to be done more frequently. The average cost of maintenance for a wooden fence is $20 per foot.
WPC Fencing Material
WPC fencing is usually manufactured from recycled materials such as plastic and wood. This is a fantastic fencing material option for homeowners who prefer to be eco-friendly, since WPC fencing helps to keep plastic and wood out of landfills. WPC fences look like wood, but you'll never have to paint or stain them. One of the main advantages of composite is the green factor -- you are not using new lumber to build a fence. The wood in composite fencing material typically comes from recycled chips or sawdust. WPC fencing is dense, which makes it durable enough to be a viable fencing option for almost any need.
The main material of HOSUNG Wood Plastic Composite products is natural wood powder (about 60%), by adding high density polyethylene plastic (about 30%) and necessary chemical additives. HOSUNG WPC Fencing is 100% recycled, water-proof, anti-corrosive, anti-slip, no paint, easy installation, economical & low maintenance, long life span etc.
About Maintenance
Maintaining Wood
- High maintenance - Wooden fences require extensive maintenance, including regular painting or staining. You’ll have to do a touch up every few years to keep the fence looking new.
- Attract pests - Termites can infest a wooden fence, damaging it or even destroying it.
- Rotting or warping - Wood is always susceptible to rotting and warping, and fences are no exception.
Maintaining WPC
This is the key influencing factor in why people choose composite fencing – you don’t need to take care of it aside from the occasional hose down! There’s also the added benefit of most of these types of fences having a 10 year+ warranty.
This kind of fence isn’t affected by insect populations and it’s weather resistant. Most of the dirt is easily removed with a high powered washer or just water. Mold or smoke stains can simply be removed with a cleanser.
