Stringing lights on the house is a holiday classic, but the best outdoor Christmas decorating schemes incorporate plenty of natural elements, too. Trees, shrubs, even ground covers can play an important role in creating a magical holiday scene that will delight your neighbors and guests. 

In addition to real plants, do you know that a building material can also contain natural elements? This building material not only has excellent performances but also integrates its eco-friendly and natural elements into your home. The material is called Wood Plastic Composite.

The natural elements of Wood Plastic Composite are reflected in the following points：

The eco-friendly and sustainable choice

WPC material is a new type of eco-friendly and energy-saving composite material that is made from wood fibers and recycled plastic, substitute for wood. WPC material is also recyclable, you can recycle it after use. It has all the features of green environmental protection as well as sustainable development.

The main material of HOSUNG (Shanghai) WPC Co., Ltd. WPC products is natural wood powder (about 60%), by adding high-density polyethylene plastic (about 30%) and necessary chemical additives. It is extruded out from special moldings under high temperature and pressure, which is 100% recycled, eco-friendly, saving forest and petroleum resources.

The High-quality HOSUNG WPC products are made using an eco-friendly manufacturing process. Unlike pressure-treated wood, no toxic chemicals are used to treat the materials. The manufacturing process uses minimal energy and water and produces few waste materials. The recycled materials are carefully processed to remove impurities and ensure a high-quality product that is long-lasting and requires minimal maintenance.

Decrease the deforestation

WPC materials use recycled wood, bamboo, sawdust and other wood waste that would otherwise end up in landfill or in an incinerator, which not only helps to reduce the amount of material entering landfill but also reduces the need for logs. This helps reduce deforestation and habitat degradation, protect the world's forests and reduce dependence on logging and wood plantations.

Using WPC decreases the demand for timber and the need to cut down trees, thus helps reduce deforestation and habitat degradation.

Combat Global Warming

WPC materials can substitute for wood and decrease deforestation, the saved trees absorb carbon dioxide, therefore help to trap the carbon contained in one of the principal greenhouse gases and reduce global warming, which has significant benefits for the environment.

Reducing tropical deforestation can significantly lower global warming emissions and—together with efforts to reduce emissions from fossil fuels—plays an integral role in a comprehensive long-term solution to global warming.

Promote plastic recycling

In the building and construction industry, Wood Plastic Composite materials play an important role in recycling plastics. WPC products made with recycled plastic gives new life to plastic waste. The recycled plastics can be made into wood plastic composites, which are used for things like decking, park benches, and playground equipment, etc.

Recycling these plastic wastes to WPC products helps to keep large amounts of plastic out of landfills. It also helps to reduce the amount of plastic washing into the ocean as these plastics are being given a second useful lease on life.

Reducing air pollution

WPC materials also promote the reduction of air pollution. Unlike treated wood, they are free of copper, chromium, arsenic and other such toxins. Even after a long period of use, you do not need to stain or seal them, so you avoid ingesting harmful fumes that linger in your area when treating wood.

Composite decking requires much less maintenance than traditional wood decking. It does not require regular oiling, painting or sealing treatments needed to maintain wood. It also does not require chemical treatments to prevent damage from termites, rot, and mold. This means that WPC decking requires less potentially harmful, fossil fuel-based chemicals for cleaning and maintenance, which is beneficial to the environment.

You do not have to tangle with a bazillion string lights to step-up your home's curb appeal this holiday season. Decking out your home with WPC building materials that contain natural elements is a welcoming way to evoke the spirit of Christmas without annoying your neighbors with an excessive light show.
