How is capped composite decking made?
The production of capped composite decking requires the use of a co-extrusion process. The co-extrusion process produces a strong, flexible composite deck with a long-lasting appearance. In the production of capped composite decking. Wood and polyethylene polymer are carefully mixed to create a strong, dense core. A single, stable polymer cap is then fused around the wood-plastic composite core. The core is then co-extruded with a non-organic surface product to produce an excellent performance-capped composite deck.

This composite product features a unique blend of premium non-reactive color pigments, UV inhibitors, antioxidants, and mildew inhibitors. The combination of these properties provides the add-on composite decking with excellent resistance to sunlight, stains, mold, and bacteria. It also ensures the long-lasting durability and outstanding color of the decking compound. Adding colored pigments at precise intervals during the manufacturing process results in distinct multi-tonal streaks. For this reason, we have composite decking in a variety of colors. Such as redwood composite decking, blue composite decking, teak composite decking, etc
