Industry Issues and Challenges
Industrial Environmental Tolerance: Industrial sites usually have a variety of chemicals, oil, high temperature, high humidity and other harsh environmental conditions, which require high tolerance of materials.
Mechanical Performance Requirements: Industrial equipment and facilities may need to withstand greater pressure, impact and other mechanical effects, the material needs to have sufficient strength and toughness.
Cost and efficiency: In industrial production, cost control and productivity are important factors. Materials need to be reasonably priced and easy to process and install.
Customised Solutions
Chemical resistant formulations: special wood-plastic formulations are developed for chemical corrosion problems in industrial environments. For example, acid- and alkali-resistant additives are added to the plastic matrix to make the product resistant to chemical solutions. Laying this chemical-resistant wood-plastic flooring on the workshop floor of a chemical factory can maintain good performance even if it is frequently exposed to acid and alkali solutions.
Enhanced Mechanical Properties: By adding fibre reinforcing materials, such as glass fibre, carbon fibre, etc., the mechanical properties of WPC products are improved. These reinforcing materials can significantly increase the strength and toughness of the product, enabling it to withstand the weight and impact of industrial equipment. For example, the use of fibre-reinforced wood-plastic materials in the production of industrial shelves is able to withstand heavier loads and is not easily damaged in situations such as forklift collisions.
Optimisation of production processes and cost control: In order to meet the cost and efficiency requirements of the industrial sector, the production processes of WPC products are optimised. Mass production techniques are used to reduce unit product costs. At the same time, develop product forms that are easy to cut, splice and install. For example, in the production of partition walls in industrial buildings, the use of prefabricated WPC wall panels, which are easy and quick to install on-site, greatly improves construction efficiency, and the price of the products is competitive due to large-scale production.
