Background of wpc wall panel development
wpc wall panel, Pinyin: mu su ban translated into English: wpc wall panel.
wpc wall panel is made of fillers that do not contain cellulose fibers, such as wood chips, pulp fibers, peanut shells, bamboo, straw, etc.
A wood-based panel made by machining the pressure plate. For the disposal of these waste materials is an ideal way to low-carbon environmental protection.
wpc wall panel material is a new material, as opposed to the historic natural wood as a building material. The most widely used wpc wall panel product in North America is for outdoor deck floors, but it can also be used for balustrades, fences, landscaping wood, cladding and siding, park benches, molding, trim, window and door framing, and interior furniture.
High strength plywood, also known as aircraft plywood, is made of rosewood and/or birch and uses adhesives to increase resistance to heat and humidity.
With the rapid development of the economy, people’s demand for natural resources is increasing, and wood is one of the most widely used natural resources, and the demand is growing rapidly.
Under the large consumption of wood, the shortage of supply, wood products defects and other problems have been exposed, in order to improve the performance of materials, increase the utilization rate of wood resources, wood plastic materials as a substitute for safety and environmental protection of new materials, gradually rise, and gradually replace the products that pollute the environment.
The development of wood plastic materials has played a huge role in China’s resource recycling and environmental protection, and in recent years, the state and government have also introduced various policies to further promote the high-quality and stable development of the wood plastic industry.
wpc wall panel development status
The supply of raw materials is sufficient, the production and sales have grown rapidly, and the raw materials of wood-plastic materials mainly include plastic products and wood.
The rapid growth of wood and plastic production provides sufficient raw material protection for wood-plastic materials, wood-plastic materials as a new type of environmental protection materials, widely used in the market, with the gradual popularization of materials, demand will also be rapid growth, promote the sustainable development of wood-plastic materials industry.
During 2017-2021, the product production and sales volume of China’s wood-plastic material industry maintained a year-on-year growth trend, and the annual sales volume of 2021 reached 3.83 million tons and 3.9 million tons, an increase of 9.43% and 13.7% respectively.
It is expected that the sales volume of 2022 will be further improved, with the output reaching about 4.13 million tons and the sales volume reaching about 4.22 million tons.
wpc wall panel material introduction
wpc wall panel is a new type of environmentally friendly composite material made of biomass fiber and polymer resin. As one of its main applications, wpc wall panel has a wide range of uses in the field of construction.
In recent years, the state has supported the development of wood-plastic composites and promoted their multi-functional and resource recycling. The wood-plastic composite wallboard industry is facing good development opportunities, and the market size is growing year by year.
wpc wall panel refers to a new type of multi-purpose environmental protection composite material made of bamboo and wood flour, rice husk, straw and other biomass fiber, and polymer resin such as polyethylene, polypropylene or polyvinyl chloride as the main material, using special functional additives, and processed by special process.
China wpc wall panel
China’s plastic wood industry products as a whole are mainly exported. wpc wall panel is a new type of wall material, mainly used in the field of housing construction.
The main competitors are HOSANG, Meisin Technology Co., LTD., Beixin Group Building Materials Co., LTD., Beijing Hualiang United High-tech Co., LTD., Beijing Space plate Industry Co., LTD., Anhui Sen Tai Plastic Wood New Materials Co., LTD., Anhui Guofeng Wood Plastic Technology Co., LTD.
wpc wall panel industry future development trends
- The mix of raw materials is diversified. That is, there may be more raw and auxiliary materials to join the ranks of the preparation of wood plastic products, not only to enrich the variety of products, but also to provide more space for its market expansion.
- The equipment process is intelligent. As a self-contained new material, the continued development of the industry will certainly give birth to the specialization and intelligence of equipment art, and the production process will be developed from a single extrusion to a composite co-extrusion, cladding co-extrusion, intelligent manufacturing and other aspects.
- Molding process standardization. Due to the unbalanced development of the domestic wood-plastic industry, there is no standard production process in the industry so far, and the constraints on the development of the industry by their own process ideas and behaviors will gradually be solved.
- Products from low-end to high value-added direction. From the perspective of the development track of the industry and the actual needs of the market, the model of a single planking and railing is destined to be broken through. The high-end, diversification and high value of wood plastic and stone wood plastic products will be inevitable.
- Widely used. At present, wood-plastic and stone-wood-plastic products are mainly used as new building materials in outdoor facilities, architectural decoration, indoor home, municipal gardens, tourism facilities and other fields. Wood-plastic and stone-wood-plastic composite materials in the national industrial policy encouragement and scientific and technological innovation environment, can be widely used in agriculture, environmental protection, packaging logistics, highways/railways, automobiles, toys, shipbuilding, military and other fields.
