THE PROCESS

The process of creating our wood plastic composite products from household, commercial and industrial post consumer waste is as follows:

1. We gather post industrial waste, post consumer polyolefin plastics and process them into pellets.
2. The pellets are converted to resin, which is then compounded with 100% recycled waste wood.
3. The compounded material is then continuously extruded through a die-cut profile into almost any required shape and form factor.
4. The material, now wood plastic composite, is cooled with water – which is continuously reused.
5. The finished product is automatically machine cut to length up to 6m and above by request.

The resulting product is strong, attractive, versatile, resistant to pests and corrosion and, of course, good for the environment.
