Protective Cover of Co-extrusion Decking

The protective cover refers to the outer layer wrapped around the composite decking core, typically made of high-performance polymers. This layer offers excellent UV protection, resistance to scratches, and improved durability, keeping your decking surface looking pristine even after years of use. It helps prevent fading, stains, and surface wear, significantly extending the lifespan of your deck.

Composite Core Material: Durable and Eco-friendly

The core material of co-extrusion decking is made from Kosa composite materials, consisting of recycled plastic granules and wood fibers. This eco-friendly core provides strength, flexibility, and superior water resistance, making co-extrusion decking a reliable and sustainable choice for your outdoor projects.

Co-extrusion Decking Vs. Traditional WPC Decking

Co-extrusion Decking Vs. Traditional WPC Decking
Traditional WPC DeckingCo-extrusion Decking
Appearance and textureAppearance and weather resistanceTraditional WPC Decking  may experience fading, discoloration, and other issues in appearance after a period of use, especially when exposed to sunlight, rain, and other environments for a long time. Its weather resistance has certain limitations. Although it can resist the erosion of some natural factors, its appearance and performance will gradually deteriorate over time.Co-extrusion Decking has significant advantages in weather resistance. It has a special co extrusion layer on its surface, which can effectively block the damage of ultraviolet rays and greatly reduce the fading phenomenon caused by sunlight exposure. At the same time, it also has better resistance to rain, moisture, and other factors, which can maintain the bright color and good texture of the appearance for a long time, making the outdoor decking always look new, greatly improving the aesthetics and overall decorative effect of the outdoor space.
Environmental protectionWear resistance and service lifeThe wear resistance of Traditional WPC Decking is relatively limited. In daily situations such as pedestrian walking and furniture movement, scratches and other wear phenomena may gradually appear, which will affect its service life and appearance quality.Due to its unique co extrusion structure, Co-extrusion Decking has higher surface hardness and stronger wear resistance. The Co-extruded layer can effectively protect the main body of the board, making it more capable of withstanding various external friction forces. This means that it is less prone to wear and tear during long-term use, and its service life can be significantly extended. Compared to traditional plastic wood panels, Co-extrusion Decking can save users the cost of replacement and maintenance, making it a more economical and durable choice.
Convenience of cleaning and maintenanceConvenience of cleaning and maintenanceTraditional WPC Decking may require tedious steps during cleaning, and some common stains may be difficult to completely remove, especially after wear and tear on the surface of the board, making it easier for stains to penetrate and further increasing the difficulty of cleaning.The surface co extrusion layer of Co-extrusion Decking is relatively smooth and less prone to stains, making it easier to clean. Even if there are stains attached, they are very easy to clean off, just use ordinary cleaning tools and cleaning agents to keep the floor clean and tidy. In terms of maintenance, it does not require frequent maintenance like traditional plastic wood panels, which can save users a lot of time and energy.
In SummaryIn SummaryCo-extrusion Decking is currently the most advantageous outdoor decking material compared to traditional WPC Decking in terms of appearance and weather resistance, wear resistance and service life, as well as cleaning and maintenance convenience.
