  • What is aluminum-plastic composite decking

     Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Aluminum-Plastic Decking
     
    1. What is aluminum-plastic composite decking?
    Aluminum-plastic composite decking is a new generation of outdoor flooring that co-extrudes a solid 6063-T5 aluminum alloy core with a 360-degree wrap of weather-resistant polymer material. It combines the structural strength of metal with the non-slip, wood-look aesthetics of plastic. This makes it a popular solution for those searching for a "warp-free" and "low-maintenance" alternative to traditional wood or pure plastic boards.
     
    2. Why is aluminum-plastic decking better than traditional wood or WPC?
    The key difference lies in the structural core.
    No Warping/Cracking:** Aluminum has an extremely low thermal expansion coefficient compared to the wood flour or plastic used in WPC. It stays flat even under extreme sun exposure or freezing temperatures.
    No Rotting:** Unlike wood, aluminum does not absorb water. The plastic outer shell prevents moisture damage and termite infestation entirely.
    Strength:** The aluminum core provides much higher load-bearing capacity and impact resistance than hollow plastic boards.
     
    3. Is aluminum decking too hot for bare feet in the sun?
    While aluminum conducts heat, the co-extruded polymer wrapper acts as an insulating and heat-dissipating layer. Light-colored or wood-grain textured surfaces actually reflect much of the sunlight. It remains significantly cooler than dark composite or stone tiles under direct sun, and the textured surface prevents skin from direct contact with the hottest points, making it safer than metal decking. For poolside use, light colors are recommended.
     4. Is aluminum-plastic decking slippery when wet?
    No, quality aluminum-plastic decking is specifically designed for safety. The surface layer undergoes an anti-slip treatment during the co-extrusion process, creating a deep embossed wood-grain texture. This micro-texture provides excellent grip even when wet, making it an ideal "anti-slip pool deck" or "safe garden flooring." It offers much better traction than smooth tiles when barefoot.

  • About WPC Wall Panels

     

    1. Can WPC wall panels be used in outdoor areas with extreme weather conditions?

    Yes, WPC wall panels are highly suitable for outdoor areas with extreme weather. Their blend of wood fibers and plastic gives them strong resistance to moisture, UV rays, and temperature fluctuations. They won’t rot in heavy rain, crack under intense sunlight, or warp in freezing temperatures, making them ideal for regions with harsh climates like coastal areas (with salt - laden air) or areas with frequent rain and snow

    2.
    How long do WPC wall panels typically last, and do they fade over time?

    Under normal use and proper installation, WPC wall panels have a lifespan of 15 - 25 years. As for fading, high - quality WPC panels contain UV - resistant additives during production. These additives can effectively slow down color fading caused by long - term sun exposure. Although slight color changes may occur after 5 - 8 years (depending on the intensity of sunlight), the fading is usually uniform and won’t affect the overall appearance significantly

    3.
    Are WPC wall panels difficult to install, and can non - professionals do it themselves?

    WPC wall panels are relatively easy to install. Most products come with a tongue - and - groove or snap - lock installation system, which allows for quick assembly without complex tools. Non - professionals with basic DIY skills can complete the installation by following the product manual. However, for large - scale projects (such as full building facade cladding) or areas with irregular wall structures, it’s recommended to hire professional installers to ensure the installation quality and avoid potential problems like uneven joints

    4.
    Can WPC wall panels be painted or refinished if the owner wants to change the color?

    Generally, WPC wall panels don’t need to be painted or refinished because their surface color is durable and fade - resistant. Moreover, painting WPC panels is not easy to achieve a good effect. The smooth surface of WPC panels has poor adhesion to paint, and the paint may peel off easily after a period of time. If you want to change the color, it’s better to choose new WPC panels of the desired color during renovation, as this is more cost - effective and ensures a long - lasting appearance

    5.
    Are WPC wall panels safe for indoor use, especially in homes with children or pets?

    Yes, WPC wall panels are safe for indoor use. They are made of non - toxic materials, do not release harmful substances like formaldehyde (unlike some traditional wood - based panels that use formaldehyde - containing adhesives), and meet international environmental protection standards. Additionally, their surface is smooth and has no sharp edges, so there is no risk of scratching children or pets. They are also easy to clean, so even if children or pets leave stains on the panels, they can be wiped off quickly without leaving any residue.

  • Is SPC flooring suitable for wet areas like kitchens?

    1. Is SPC flooring suitable for wet areas like kitchens?

    Yes, it is. SPC flooring has excellent water resistance, which fits humid scenarios such as kitchens. But it’s necessary to lay a moisture - proof membrane on the base course during installation.

    2. Do I need to leave expansion joints when installing SPC flooring?

    Absolutely. It is recommended to leave 8 - 10mm expansion joints against the wall. For large - area paving, additional expansion joints should be set to prevent the floor from bulging.

    3. What should I pay attention to about the ground before installation?

    The ground must be flat with a height difference ≤ 3mm within 2m. Besides, clean up all debris thoroughly. Uneven or dirty ground will damage the locks.
    4.  Can SPC flooring be cleaned with a steam mop?
    No. High temperature from steam mops will damage the surface structure of SPC flooring. Just clean it with a dry cloth or a slightly damp mop.
    5.  Why does SPC flooring feel cold and hard when stepped on?
    Its main component is stone plastic, so the foot feel is similar to tiles. You can lay foam pads to relieve this discomfort.
