When it comes to creating beautiful, durable outdoor spaces, the choice of materials makes all the difference. Linyi Xuancheng New Materials Co., Ltd. specializes in providing innovative wood plastic composite (WPC) solutions that combine the natural beauty of wood with the durability of plastic. As a leading manufacturer in China’s outdoor WPC industry, we’ve invested over 20 million RMB in state-of-the-art production facilities covering more than 100 acres, with an annual capacity exceeding 60,000 tons.
Our commitment to quality has earned us numerous certifications including ISO 9001 and CE compliance, along with prestigious awards like “China Green Environmental Protection Product” and “China Manufacturing Quality Demonstration Enterprise.” With over 40 extrusion lines and 20 co-extrusion lines, we produce a comprehensive range of outdoor WPC products that are transforming gardens, terraces, and public spaces worldwide.
Understanding WPC Material Technology
Wood plastic composite (WPC) represents a revolutionary advancement in outdoor building materials. By combining natural wood fibers with high-density polyethylene (HDPE), our proprietary manufacturing process creates products that offer the best of both worlds. The wood component provides natural aesthetics and texture, while the plastic ensures exceptional durability, water resistance, and low maintenance requirements.
Our advanced co-extrusion technology takes this a step further by adding a protective polymer layer to the surface. This innovative approach enhances the material’s resistance to UV rays, scratches, and stains while maintaining its natural wood appearance. The result is outdoor flooring and wall panels that require no painting, sealing, or staining throughout their service life.
The environmental benefits of WPC are equally impressive. By utilizing recycled wood fibers and plastic waste, our production process helps reduce landfill waste and deforestation. Unlike traditional wood products, WPC doesn’t require chemical treatments for pest resistance, making it a safer choice for both people and the environment.
Premium Round Hole Flooring Solutions
Our round hole flooring series represents the perfect balance between structural integrity and aesthetic appeal. Designed with circular hollow cores, these boards offer superior strength-to-weight ratios while maintaining excellent drainage capabilities. This makes them ideal for applications where water accumulation might be a concern, such as pool decks, waterfront patios, and garden walkways.
The round hole design provides several practical advantages. First, the hollow cores reduce the material’s overall weight, making installation easier and reducing transportation costs. Second, the circular pattern creates natural drainage channels that prevent water pooling, which is particularly beneficial in rainy climates or near water features. Third, the design maintains sufficient structural strength to support normal foot traffic while being more economical than solid boards.
Ideal Applications for Round Hole Flooring
1. Villa Terraces: The combination of drainage capability and elegant appearance makes round hole flooring perfect for residential terraces, especially in coastal areas where moisture resistance is crucial.
2. Seaside Courtyards: The salt-resistant properties of our WPC material, combined with the drainage benefits of the round hole design, create an ideal solution for seaside applications where traditional wood would quickly deteriorate.
3. Pool Surrounds: The non-slip surface and quick-draining design make these boards perfect for pool decks, where safety and water management are primary concerns.
4. Garden Pathways: Create beautiful, maintenance-free walkways through your garden that complement the natural surroundings while withstanding the elements.
5. Balcony Renovations: Transform old, tired balconies into stylish outdoor living spaces with our lightweight, durable flooring solution that won’t overload existing structures.
Solid Flooring for High-Traffic Areas
When durability and load-bearing capacity are paramount, our solid WPC flooring series delivers unmatched performance. These boards feature a completely solid core construction that provides exceptional strength and stability, making them ideal for commercial applications and public spaces that experience heavy foot traffic.
The solid construction offers several key advantages. First, it provides maximum resistance to impact damage, making it suitable for areas where furniture is frequently moved or where children play. Second, the solid core minimizes flexing under load, ensuring a stable walking surface even in large spans. Third, the material’s dimensional stability prevents warping or buckling caused by temperature fluctuations or moisture changes.
Our solid flooring boards undergo rigorous testing to ensure they meet the highest standards for commercial use. They can withstand point loads exceeding 500kg without permanent deformation, making them suitable for everything from shopping mall walkways to public park installations. The surface is treated with an anti-slip coating that maintains traction even when wet, enhancing safety in all weather conditions.

Long City Board: The Ultimate Decorative Solution
Our Long City Board series represents the pinnacle of decorative WPC technology. These innovative panels feature a unique concave-convex grille pattern that adds depth and texture to any outdoor space. Available in both wall and ceiling applications, these boards transform ordinary surfaces into visually striking architectural elements.
The distinctive design of Long City Boards offers more than just aesthetic appeal. The three-dimensional pattern helps mask minor installation imperfections while creating interesting light and shadow effects that change throughout the day. The textured surface also enhances the material’s non-slip properties when used for flooring applications, making it both beautiful and practical.
These versatile panels can be used in a variety of creative ways. As exterior wall cladding, they add visual interest to otherwise plain surfaces while providing excellent weather resistance. In garden settings, they serve as attractive privacy screens or decorative backdrops for planting areas. When used as ceiling panels, they create warm, inviting outdoor living spaces with excellent acoustic properties.
Installation Considerations for Long City Boards
1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the installation surface is clean, dry, and structurally sound. For exterior applications, verify proper water drainage to prevent moisture buildup behind the panels.
2. Fastening System: Use corrosion-resistant screws specifically designed for WPC materials. Pre-drill holes slightly larger than the screw diameter to allow for thermal expansion.
3. Spacing Requirements: Maintain a 5-10mm gap between panels to accommodate thermal expansion. Use matching color clips or spacers for consistent spacing.
4. Edge Treatment: Finish exposed edges with matching trim pieces to create a professional appearance and protect the material from moisture penetration.
5. Cleaning Protocol: Regularly clean the surface with mild soap and water to prevent dirt accumulation in the textured pattern. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or brushes.
FAQ
What makes WPC flooring more durable than traditional wood?
WPC flooring combines wood fibers with high-density polyethylene, creating a material that’s resistant to rot, insects, and moisture.
