Introduction:
WPC Doors are a relatively new product, and many people are unfamiliar with how to judge their quality. In this article, we will discuss some simple methods to help you determine the quality of wood-plastic doors. I am Tang, the manager of Buzhoushan Wood-Plastic Doors.
Introduction to Wood-Plastic-Composite Doors
Wood-plastic doors are typically made from a combination of wood and plastic materials. They can be categorized into different types based on their structure, such as WPC hollow doors, WPC assembled doors, WPC board doors, and WPC filled doors. While these doors have distinct differences, the methods we will discuss today for assessing quality generally apply to WPC doors as a whole.
Simple Methods for Assessing WPC Door Quality
Weight Assessment:
In general, for doors of the same size and type, a heavier wood-plastic door indicates better quality. The main cost component of WPC doors comes from the WPC material. If there is a significant weight difference between doors of the same size and type, the heavier one is likely to be of higher quality.
Color Assessment:
Different manufacturers use materials of varying quality to produce WPC doors, which results in differences in the quality of the final products. The disparities in raw materials can be observed in the selection of plastic granules and wood powder:
Plastic:
Buzhoushan Doors utilize WPC made from PVC resin plastic as the main material. PVC resin plastic is known for its high strength, weather resistance, waterproofing, flame resistance, and termite resistance. WPC made from high-quality PVC resin plastic exhibits consistent color, without any impurities, and has a lighter shade. On the other hand, WPC made from materials like PE plastic tends to have a darker color, while recycled plastic can result in the appearance of black spots.
Compared to WPC doors made from PE plastic or other materials, those made from PVC resin plastic are more visually appealing and better suited for indoor use.
Wood Powder:
Buzhoushan Doors use high-quality and uniform poplar wood powder as the raw material for their WPC doors. Our WPC door substrates have a clean, white appearance and are resilient and flexible on the surface.
WPC raw materials can be sourced from a variety of options, including recycled paper, straw, palm powder, mixed wood powder, and pure wood powder. The advantages of these materials are their affordability and easy availability. Some manufacturers choose to use inexpensive wood powder materials, which can result in uneven or chaotic colors, as well as reduced texture, elasticity, and comfort of the door. In the worst cases, this can also compromise the strength of the WPC door and increase its water absorption.
Compared to WPC doors made from mixed wood powder or other wood materials, those made from poplar wood powder offer a more aesthetically pleasing appearance and a more elastic and comfortable touch.
Thickness Assessment:
WPC door panels are commonly available in thicknesses of 35mm, 40mm, and 45mm. However, we are not referring to the thickness of the door itself, as different regions may have specific requirements for door thickness. Instead, we are focusing on the thickness of the internal substrate of the door panel and its side edges. By cutting open the door panel, you can clearly see the thickness of these components. Generally, the thicker the substrate, the better the quality of the WPC door.
Texture Assessment:
WPC doors made from low-quality materials may feel rough to the touch and lack elasticity when pressed. On the other hand, high-quality WPC doors exhibit elasticity, a warm touch, and a comfortable feel when pressed.
Key Factors to Consider
In summary, this article has presented simple methods for discerning the quality of WPC doors. Wood-plastic doors are premium indoor doors known for their high strength, sound insulation, moisture resistance, drought resistance, flame resistance, and termite resistance. They offer both comfort and exquisite aesthetics.
