When it comes to outdoor flooring solutions, durability, eco-friendliness, and aesthetic appeal are three critical factors that property owners and developers consider. In recent years, outdoor hollow WPC (Wood-Plastic Composite) flooring has emerged as a leading choice for various applications, from residential gardens to commercial plazas and government landscaping projects. As a professional manufacturer with over a decade of experience in the green building materials industry, Linyi Xuancheng New Materials Co., Ltd. stands out as a reliable partner for your outdoor flooring needs.
Why Choose Outdoor Hollow WPC Flooring?
Outdoor hollow WPC flooring combines the natural appearance of wood with the superior performance of plastic materials, creating a product that offers the best of both worlds. The hollow structure design provides several distinct advantages:
1. Lightweight yet strong: The hollow core reduces the overall weight of each flooring board while maintaining sufficient strength for most outdoor applications. This makes installation easier and reduces transportation costs.
2. Excellent drainage: The hollow design allows for efficient water drainage, preventing water accumulation that could lead to slipping hazards or material degradation over time.
3. Cost-effective: Compared to solid WPC flooring, hollow versions typically use less material while still providing comparable performance, making them a more budget-friendly option without compromising quality.
4. Thermal insulation: The air pockets within the hollow structure provide some degree of thermal insulation, helping to keep surfaces cooler in hot weather compared to solid materials.
5. Versatile applications: The combination of strength and lightweight properties makes hollow WPC flooring suitable for various outdoor settings, including patios, walkways, pool decks, and more.
Our Professional Manufacturing Capabilities
At Linyi Xuancheng New Materials Co., Ltd., we’ve invested heavily in creating a state-of-the-art production facility that spans over 100 mu (approximately 66,667 square meters) in Linyi, known as China’s logistics capital. Our annual production capacity exceeds 60,000 tons, with an annual output value reaching 200 million RMB.
Since our establishment in 2013, we’ve continuously upgraded our equipment and processes to maintain our position as an industry leader. Our current setup includes:
- Over 40 extrusion lines
- More than 20 co-extrusion lines
- Complete supporting equipment including granulators, crushers, sanders, wire drawing machines, and laser coding machines
This comprehensive production capability allows us to offer a wide range of outdoor WPC products, including our flagship A-R 80ARD garden wood series with Light Luxury Co-extrusion and Natural Classic product lines.
Product Categories and Applications
Our outdoor hollow WPC flooring comes in three main categories to suit different application scenarios:
1. Square Hole Flooring: This cost-effective option features a lightweight design with rich surface texture patterns. It’s ideal for conventional outdoor spaces like courtyards, terraces, and park walkways.
2. Round Hole Flooring: With its circular hollow mechanical structure, this type offers superior bending resistance and anti-slip drainage performance. It’s particularly well-suited for specialized applications such as plank roads, pool perimeters, and waterfront platforms.
3. Solid Flooring: Though not hollow, we include this in our discussion as it complements our hollow flooring range. The solid construction provides maximum load-bearing capacity and impact resistance with minimal thermal expansion and contraction, making it perfect for high-traffic public projects.
In addition to flooring, we also manufacture complementary WPC products including wall panels and fences in three categories:
- Great Wall panels with unique concave-convex grille shapes for decorative applications
- Exterior wall panels with simple, attractive拼接 (joint) designs for building facades
- Fence panels available in fully enclosed, semi-enclosed, and fully open styles for various boundary solutions
Quality Assurance and Certifications
Quality has been the cornerstone of our success since day one. We understand that for outdoor flooring to perform reliably over time, it must withstand diverse weather conditions, heavy foot traffic, and potential impacts. That’s why we’ve implemented a rigorous quality control system throughout our production process.
Our commitment to quality is demonstrated by:
- 3 invention patents and dozens of utility model patents
- ISO 9001 certification
- EU CE certification
- Recognition as “China Green Environmental Protection Product”
- Inclusion in the “China Wood-type Flooring Top 10 Brands”
- Designation as “China Manufacturing Quality Demonstration Enterprise”
- Listing in the “China Quality News Quality Case Archive Enterprise”

FAQ
What makes outdoor hollow WPC flooring different from solid WPC flooring?
The main difference lies in the internal structure. Hollow WPC flooring has empty spaces inside each board, making it lighter and often more cost-effective. Solid WPC flooring is completely filled with material, offering maximum strength and durability for heavy-duty applications. Both types use the same high-quality WPC material on the surface and offer similar weather resistance and maintenance requirements.
How long does outdoor hollow WPC flooring typically last?
With proper installation and maintenance, our outdoor hollow WPC flooring can last 10-15 years in normal outdoor conditions. The actual lifespan depends on factors such as the amount of direct sunlight exposure, foot traffic volume, and adherence to maintenance recommendations. Our products are designed with UV stabilizers and other protective additives to maximize longevity.
Can I install outdoor hollow WPC flooring myself, or do I need professional installation?
While technically possible for experienced DIY enthusiasts, we generally recommend professional installation for optimal results, especially for larger projects or complex layouts. Proper installation ensures correct spacing for expansion, adequate drainage, and secure fastening, all of which contribute to the flooring’s performance and lifespan. Our team can provide installation guidance or connect you with certified installers in your area.
What maintenance is required for outdoor hollow WPC flooring?
One of the key advantages of WPC flooring is its low maintenance requirements. Regular maintenance typically includes: 1) Sweeping or light pressure washing to remove debris, 2) Occasional cleaning with mild soap and water for stubborn stains, 3) Avoiding the use of harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, 4) Inspecting for and replacing any damaged boards promptly. Unlike natural wood, WPC flooring doesn’t require staining, sealing, or painting.
Is outdoor hollow WPC flooring slippery when wet?
Our outdoor hollow WPC flooring is designed with safety in mind. The surface texture provides good traction even when wet, and our products typically achieve a BPN (Pendulum Test Value) of 60 or higher in wet conditions, which is considered safe for public areas. For pool decks or other areas where water exposure is constant, we recommend our round hole flooring for its superior drainage capabilities.
