WOOD PLASTIC COMPOSITE PRODUCTS INCLUDING BOARDS
 [CODE NO. 1793]

    Plastic and wood wastes have been a main environmental concern. Plastic is the biggest problem due to its high amount of waste generated, non biodegradability and the fastest depletion of natural resources regarding its short life cycle, therefore increased amount of material utilized in its production, and waste generated. The same applies to wood with lesser degree where it is depleting trees and forests and the wastes mainly are either burned or disposed; resulting in extra consumption, depletion, and pollution of nature. Several worldwide attempts have been adopted; especially in the developed countries, to take advantage of these types of waste especially with the raised need for alternatives to virgin materials. Wood plastic composite (WPC) is a product which could be obtained from plastic and wood. WPC is a composite with a rapid growing usage consisting of a mixture of wood waste and polymeric material . Many trials of obtaining a WPC product were basically built on the concept of a Cradle to Cradle approach where the material is recycled at the end of its life cycle to produce a Cradle (new) product and thus close the loop and imitate the natural ecosystem. As a consequence, this minimizes the solid waste content and conserve the natural resources. Therefore, costs, energy, and depletion of virgin materials are reduced. In addition, it assures the sustainability over the incoming
years for future generations' use.
