1.What are the ingredients of Domi products?
+
Domi products are wood-plastic composites, which are made of a unique mixture of recycled wood flour and plastic, combined with highly advanced manufacturing technology. Domi products are a special combination of about 50% Aspen powder and nearly 35% Polyethylene, and the remaining 15% contains high-quality pigments and some other additives, such as ultraviolet stability, mildew resistance, insect resistance and fire resistance.

2.What is WPC typically used for as a building material?
+
WPC finds application in wall & ceiling cladding, decking, garden pergolas, terrace pergolas, vertical elevation fins, ventilated facades, baffle features, railings, louvers and a host of other interior and exterior applications.
-
3.What are the main advantages of Domi WPC products?
+
Mildew proof, Resistant to rotting and splitting, No painting, No glue, Low maintenance; UV resistance and durable, Good weather ability, Suitable from -40ºC to +40ºC; Environmental friendly,Fully recyclable and no other hazard chemical;
-
4.Are Domi wood-plastic products fireproof?
+
Our products are fire-resistant, which is what we often call flame-retardant grades. The best fire-resistant grade we can carry is B1. Unlike wood, it does not have air pockets inside wood, which can easily be ignited. Once our material catches fire, it won't catch fire if the source of the fire is removed.
-
5. Can I use your WPC products for structural purposes?
+
No, Domi composite decking does provide superior surface integrity and strength, suitable for various project applications, but it cannot be classified as a “load-bearing” product or used for structural purposes.
-
6.Will Domi products fade with the passage of time?
+
When exposed to sunlight and other weather conditions, almost everything will fade with time.
Domi products are added with high-quality UV-inhibiting pigments, which are made of hardwood fibers to minimize fading (softwood fades more than hardwood), but there will still be some visible fading in the first few months (the speed and degree of this fading depends on the actual weather conditions) to provide a more textured appearance. Like any wood-based product, some fading will occur, but the plastic component will keep its color. Any initial color difference between boards is caused by the natural color difference of wood fibers. Once weathered, boards will show similar colors.
-
7.Can Domi products pass CE certification?
+
Yes, our products comply with industry standards such as CE/SGS/ISO/INTERTEK.
-
8.Is your product less harmful to human health than a comparable conventional product?
+
Yes. Domi composite contains no added arsenic or other preservatives that are likely to be toxic under normal exposure conditions. Conventional wood treating processes impregnate the wood substrate with toxic chemicals to prevent rot and decay. Domi composite is naturally resistant to rot and decay without toxic additives.
-
9.Do your composites perform well in a harsh heat/cold environment?
+
Yes! Domi composite decking and cladding are engineered to hold up under various weather conditions almost anywhere on Earth. In fact, we have Domi deck boards and wall cladding installed around the world from warm or hot climates including East Asia, the American southeast and southwest, Latin America, the Middle East, and Hawaii as well as cold climates from North America (including the northern US, Alaska, and Canada), northern Asia, and throughout Europe, including Scandinavia.
-
10.Can your composite decking be exposed to the elements?
+
Domi products are designed for outdoor use so they are able to withstand the elements. Domi composite products won’t rot, or collect mildew or mold which may affect the durability of the deck and put both you and your children in danger. Domi composite decking will not splinter, 100% safe when you walk on the surface.
-
11.What does the term “Art Color” mean?
+
Art Color is a term used to describe the varied streaking on Domi composite decking and cladding. By adding different colors at precise moments during the manufacturing process, we are able to create a more nuanced color palette, or maybe variegated color, on a monotonous board, to create the rich, natural color variation found in real wood.
